3D model description

This model has been optimised for better quality printing in my humble opinion.
By printing the head and tentacles separately. No supports necessary.
Tentacles now hook into the Octo'Base.

2 files.
1 X Head on Octo'Base
1 X Tentacle you can print 8 times of course.

Updates are.

  1. Head is tilted back quite a bit. Giving the chin a good elevation. Eliminating the original chins overhang.
  2. Smooth blend between neck and Octo' Base.
  3. Subtle inflation under earlobes to avoid overhang issues.
  4. Pupils added to eyes.
  5. Tentacles are to be printed separately. Individually for finest results. Tentacles now hook into the Octo'Base. Push into connector very slowly to avoid breaking your print. The gap is just big enough with a little pressure to snap into place.
  6. All geometry is generally smoothed. Eliminating the overly decimated original. Thus allowing good quality at larger sized prints. Or higher resolution prints.
