This dragon looks AMAZING with triple or dual color silk filaments. One of the examples is printed with Eryone's Black/Gold/Purple and two of them are printed with Eryone's Red/Gold. The difference between the two red/gold versions is the orientation of the dragon on the plate. For best results print it diagonally on the plate with the lightest color on the belly side. You can see in the overhead example of the model on the plate that I printed that one with the light color on the back/tail side. That's the one that looks like a lobster from the front. LOL
I've included an extra plate with a partial head so you can test color orientation of your filament as well as practice support removal before printing the whole thing.
Removing the supports from this detailed model is a delicate process, especially from the head and mouth. Look at the model to see where the dragon's teeth, “beard spikes” and other head features are so you don't accidentally cut or break them off during support removal! Using Tree Slim supports with a pretty high Z distance gives you the best chance of a clean finished piece.
Some of my original tests with default settings didn't have a nice finish on the top of the head and left shoulder so I did several tests and have had the best results with the following settings.
Wall generator: Arachne
Layer height: .2
Nozzle: .4
Shell Layers: 5
Top Surface Pattern: Octogram Spiral
Supports: Tree/Slim on build plate only
