What filament to use for the Day of the Dead Halloween Pumpkin? We recommend: 
▶Bambu PLA Basic White

OR

▶Bambu PLA Matte Desert

Painting recommendation if you use the white filament: 
Base Coat: Sand the print (optional), then apply a light brown or tan base coat. 
Shading: Use darker browns and blacks (rub n buff or light brown acrylic paint) for dry-brushing, focusing on recesses for depth.
Highlights: Lightly dry-brush the raised areas with white or beige acrylic for contrast. 
Sealing: Finish with a matte clear coat.

Painting recommendation if you use the PLA Matte Desert filament:
Dabbing Technique: Apply a white or light tan coat using a sponge, leaving the brown filament visible in the recesses.

Shading/highlights and Sealing: Same instructions as above with the white filament.

PRINT info and advice:
If you use the print profile we provided the manual tree supports are already set up and added on the file as well as all the recommended settings, with Bambu Slicer it's all fully ready to print!
The easiest way to remove supports from the mouth gap: we recommend to use a thin pliers, blade/knife to cut out/remove the supports.

If you download the stl version, don't forget to add a few manual or automatic supports on top of the eye holes, nose, and the mouth gap
