✨DAZZLING GRADIENT✨
This design uses the semi-transparent properties of filament to create a dazzling gradient effect along the shutter lines. This was done by adjusting the model thickness in specific areas. You can experiment with filaments and create different effects by changing the filament assigned to parts of the model:
Gradient-Bottom is the bottom layer of the shutters, and most prominent for the lower 3 bands
Gradient-Top is on top of Gradient-Bottom, and progressively gets thicker (creating the gradient)
You can quickly assign materials by hitting the corresponding number on your keyboard (e.g. 1 = slot 1, 2 = slot 2, etc.)
Color combination ideas:
Sunset - Red (Gradient-Bottom) to Yellow (Gradient-Top)
Snowy day - White (Gradient-Bottom) to Light Blue (Gradient-Top)
Tropical - Green (Gradient-Bottom) to Yellow (Gradient-Top)
Glowing - Any (Gradient-Bottom) to Glow (Gradient-Top)
Noir - Black (Gradient-Bottom) to White (Gradient-Top)
You can also experiment with different properties; like metallic or sparkle fading to matte or transparent!
ASSEMBLY
Assembly is straight-forward. Each pair of glasses needs a complete frame, and one of each of the temples (left and right).
Once printed, each temple will snap fit into the frame as shown below. This can be quite stiff and requires some strength to fit; but once fitted, you will have a strong and freely moving hinge for your glasses!
PRINT SETTINGS
Use the original Designer profile to ensure success. If you're setting up your own profile for yourself, or to share - here are a few notes.
Print Settings: 0.2mm layer height, 2 walls; no supports needed.
Material Advice: PLA works well, or switched PETG for enhanced durability, especially for hinges. DO NOT mix PETG and PLA for color layers, as you will encounter material adhesion issues. Stick to one type of filament.
Printing Tip: Ensure your filament is flow calibrated for optimal snap-fit hinge functionality.
Cool and thanks for upload! Will try other color combos, this is what I had currently in the AMS.
Didn’t get much of a gradient, it basically switches 100% from green to red after row 4 from bottom. any advice? Follwed print profile 100%.
Nice print! Yeah it definitely takes some playing around to find good gradients - usually determined by translucency of the filament, and how intense the color is. I've noticed yellow is particularly good as it allows other colors to pass through. When combined with something like red, you get a really nice transition.
Edit: Looks like a Bambu Studio / MarkerWorld bug. Changed rating to 5*, great print.
