3D model description

Art the Shelf Elf v1

Updates:
12/19/2021 - Uploaded Version 2.

With version 2 I got rid of the butthole and made the Head piece connected to the body to be broken free after printing. This eliminates the head rotating while printing.

Here is my rendition of the classic Elf on a Shelf. I wanted to make an articulated design that prints in place with no supports. Rather than "recreate" the Elf on a Shelf, I wanted to give it a more robotic look and feel.

Art has 11 points of articulation, and the head rotates a full 360 degrees to display one of two faces (Happy and Sad).

**This is Verison 1, I will be uploaded improved versions as I make the improvements to the design!
