×Here's a funny little (or huge if you go with the Ostrich Egg) Surprise
Easter
Egg, which can house any design you want inside, and then can be cracked open like a real egg and reveal the thing inside. The original idea for people to create their own surprises so, remixes and makes are welcome!
The shell is 0.8mm thick and breaks somewhat easy, just don't fill the whole inside area to allow the shell to bend inward when breaking (use a corner of a table or similar to break the egg). The egg has a built in support, so no need for supports in slicer (unless your own designs really needs them).
4 different sizes.
Quail Egg 40mm (23mm platform)
Chicken Egg 65mm (38mm platform)
Swan Egg 120mm (72mm platform)
Ostrich Egg 190mm (114mm platform)
The are a few ready models ready to download (these still use the old design):
Pavel the Ghost
Stanford Bunny
Heart Pendant
The Baby Yoda in the thumbnail picture is the one from MarVin_Miniatures, but the license does not allow remixes to be shared. You can still make one yourself quite easy, with the instructions below.
