Subramanya, the Radiant [Easy to Print Filament Painting]

Published 2023-10-02T11:36:51+00:00
Simple to print, you dont need a multi colour AMS or MMU unit. All you need is black and white filament. This will print in any FDM printer capable of printing 0.08 layer height.
This filament painting is created with Steve Lavitas' brilliant Hueforge software. It creates beautiful colour 3D prints from images. Photos dont do justice to the prints, they have to be seen and felt to be appreciated. The original image was converted to black and white and optimised for Hueforge.
About the Model:
The lithograph depicts Lord Subramanya, also known as Murugan and Skanda, as a young boy, standing calmly with his right hand in the Abhaya Mudra pose, symbolizing protection and fearlessness. He is adorned with traditional jewelry and a crown, and his complexion radiates a gentle golden glow. At his feet, a peacock and cobra are peacefully coexisting, representing his divine qualities, including mastery over all living creatures and his association with the peacock as his mount. In the background, a subtle silhouette of the Thiruchendur temple, a revered temple dedicated to Lord Subramanya in Tamil Nadu, adds a sense of sacredness to the scene.
Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.16mm
Filaments Used:
PLA+ Esun Black Transmission Distance: 2.6
PLA+ Esun White Transmission Distance: 10
Swap Instructions:
Start with Black
At layer #6 (0.56mm) swap to White for the rest.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For colour accuracy you will need to print with white filament with a Transmission Distance (TD) of 10. The TD of the black does'nt seem to matter. But dont worry, just use ESUN White and Black. I chose Esun because that brand seems to be universally available across the world. You will have the same result with ANY white filament with a TD of 10. To find the TD of your filament check out:
