Did Kirby inhale jet fuel or something?

The pink, black, and white I already had from previous projects, but I had to go buy the blue and coral for this.

If you are interested, 3d printing has come down in price significantly over the past few years. Last I checked, the newest Ender 3 models regularly go on sale for ~160 USD. A 1kg roll of PLA is ~20 USD and will last a good while.

My local library had me start with TinkerCAD (user-friendly, web-based CAD application) and Thingiverse (great place to share your projects). If you have any questions or want a second opinion, feel free to reach out :)

Thank you. I did each colour as separate prints made of PLA, then super glued them together. There are some printers these days that can print multiple colours at once, but they are above of my budget.

I haven't looked in to laminating it, but i do have pieces of acrylic that are cut to the same size from a previous rendition I was working on. I will probably use that.
