Support me on Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/elizabeth3d The Chibi Tank is a chunky, cute battle tank toy whose turret turns all the way round. Design Concept A soft "chibi" take on a battle tank: a short, wide hull with big rounded edges, an oversized round turret with a short, thick cannon, a little hatch with a periscope on top, and two chunky tracks with big round road wheels. A toolbox, a jerrycan and small drums ride on the deck. No flags, no insignia, no numbers: just a friendly little tank for your desk. Purpose A desk toy and a collectible for anyone who likes tanks and military models, but cute instead of realistic. How It Works - Two parts, the hull and the turret, in one color. - The turret sits on a printed pivot on the hull and turns all the way round. No glue: it just lifts off. - The tracks have flat bottoms, so the tank stands firmly on the table. What You Need - Only the two printed parts: no glue and no screws. Print Settings - A print profile (3MF) for the Anycubic Kobra S1, on one plate: the hull standing on its tracks and the turret on its flat underside. Open it with File > Open Project - 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.20 mm layers (0.24 mm first layer), PLA. 2 walls, 15% lightning infill and slim tree supports from the build plate, already set in the 3MF - The two STL files (hull and turret) are included for any other slicer - Size: about 12 cm long, 8.5 cm wide and 9.5 cm tall when assembled - About 3 h 41 min and 77 g of filament on the Kobra S1 Assembly 1. Remove the supports. 2. Set the turret on the hull with the hole underneath it over the pivot, and let it drop into place. 3. Turn the turret to aim the cannon.
