Printing & Painting Tiny Grumpy Pumpkin on Robo 3D Printer for Halloween - Thingiverse

Happy Halloween 2013!
Whats up Nerdgasm Fans! This is my very first print ever done on my new Robo 3D printer. I had a very limited amount of sample material that was included in the printer to work with so I had to think small. And since it was Halloween a grumpy pumpkin was the only rational choice... Right?
This model was printed at 30mm/sec with 1.75mm filament on a 70c heated bed with 220c PLA at 0.15mm layer height and I think it came out pretty good. The few little defects with the model had to do with contamination of the material I was using since it had tape holding it together and the adhesive from the tape got attached to the PLA and wouldn't come off. Once that contamination was burned off the rest of the print went flawlessly. You can see I didn't have to use painters tape or kapton tape because the PLA stuck right to the heated glass without issues.
I painted the pumpkin using acrylic paint from the hobby store and my painting skills are obviously horrible but I love showing you guys everything even if it turns out horrible because that's how I learn and it should be how you learn too (and give you something to laugh at on the internet).
I hope you guys enjoy the video and tell your friends!
