MEET THE MOBIAN
Straight from the rust-choked alleyways of Robotropolis, my spiraltastic Voltex is now captured in 1/6 scale BJD form (Total height 24cm).

Voltex is designed with multi-color FDM printing in mind HOWEVER prints perfectly fine in resin or single color FDM machines too!

Included are 3 hand gestures and two mouthplates to change expressions that are easily swappable via magnets. The eyechips are also magnetised allowing for easy customisation!
Speaking of which, an optional blank version of the eye chip is included for this purpose along with one featuring the sculpted spiral design if you're going down the painting/resin doming route. The .3mf Bambu Studio project file also includes a version of the eye pre-painted with modifiers for ease of printing!

As mentioned all parts are pre-painted in the .3mf file and outside of a optional extra detailed mouthplate (that requires 5 colors, a 4 color version is also provided) only require a single AMS unit if printing with a Bambu Labs printer.

The neckerchief part can be printed in PLA but I'd recommend printing in TPU to allow for a wider range of posing/flexibility.

You can pick any color you wish, I went with a beige for the arms and a blue for the body/legs loop to match with the parts they're threaded through

Magnets -
18x 6mm/3mm round magnets https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CCTJ8Q14?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1

Craft Wire (For wrist/feet pegs and optional doll wiring) -
2mm 6 Gauge Aluminium wire: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DLNL246W?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_2

(Optional) Hot glue gun/glue sticks -
Definitely recommend sueding the joints with hot glue to help add friction between the joints whilst also protecting these areas

(optional) UV Resin/UV Clear Nail Gel -
Used to gloss over/dome the eyes. I use a 50/50 mixture of the two as I find it's the perfect blend of scratch-resistance and sheen.

FDM PRINT SETTINGS (premade settings I use are included in my Bambu Studio Project):

Layer height - .16 for most parts, then either .12 or .08 for detailed parts like the eye chips/hands/mouthplates etc.
Infill: 15% Gyroid
Fuzzy Skin (To mask layer lines effectively in combination with the surface texture): .15 Point Distance .15 Thickness
Supports: I always use manual as most parts are made to be printed on top of supports rather than on the build platform. All my custom support application is included in the Bambu Studio project.
Colors: All of the parts are pre-painted with Bambu Studio's in-software tools/custom modifiers so if you have a Bambu Labs printer and a AMS system you'll be able to print the parts in full color. This particular file should be usable in Slicers for alternative printers that utilise a similar multi-material system.
