Its a really great model, but im no painter so i cut it into multiple pieces, and modeled joining surfaces for dual extruder printing, as well as some PrintAsSupportModeling.

If you dont wish to use the base make sure not to use the custom support models, the support required is much easier. It was requested of me to add a base as well, which inhibits the slicers ability to add support even tree support was inadequate.

Printed 19cm tall 3 shells 0.4W 0.175H for most of it,less for the base, and more for the smaller details. I also recommend adding a script to pause the print in a couple places so you can have even more colors. If you dont pause i recommend printing the teeth the same color as body, purple teeth?!?!!? eeah whatever its 3dprinting, go for it. I also printed the outer shell very slow as the original model has soooo much great tiny detail and really wanted that to show.

Hint for cura 3.6, merge all meshes, in preferences unslect dropAllModelsToBuildPlate, and then select the manual support mesh and select print as support and add a permodel setting "DropDownSupportMesh" and add it, but make sure it unselected. I had issues trying to get cura to do what i wanted, i think merging the models was messing with it. Also if this still extends the supports downwards, enable and disable "generate supports"

Dont print the "HulkNotAsSupport" as support, it is a bridge and printed as support will not provide a top to laterally stabilize the rest of supports on, it also breaks away alot easier.
