Марси

Marcie, from the comic strip Peanuts by Charles Schulz.

Marcie is a studious girl who is sometimes depicted as being terrible at sports. Marcie is best friends with Peppermint Patty, constantly addressing her as "sir". Originally, Peppermint Patty kept telling Marcie to stop calling her that but eventually grows accustomed to it.

Some supports are required on one piece, hair (see notes below). If you have the proper filament colors, no painting is needed.

The assembled model is 128mm tall and is in proportion to my other Peanuts models.

Enjoy!

Printing and assembly tips

Printing tips:

1 - Supports are required on the follow part:
hair (Standard settings for organic/tree supports (with a wider support base if you have adhesion issues)

2 - There are some pieces that may need brims or rafts, use your discretion. When setting up my prints I prefer to be conservative to ensure the least chance of a print failure, especially since the base of many parts are hidden when inserted into another part.

*I used a raft on:
arm_left
arm_right

3 - When removing parts from the printer bed, it's a VERY good idea to place left/right parts into separate containers to help with the assembly process. Sometimes the difference between the left and right parts is very small but it is still worth keeping track of them (especially if you size up the model significantly) and assembling them in their proper place.

Assembly tips:

1 - Take your time gluing the model together and enjoy the process. Dry fit all the parts and give some thought into which parts to glue together as groups and then gluing the groups together. Let the glue for each group set completely before combining groups.

2 - I used 3D Gloop (strong fast drying) and E6000 (tacky slow drying) glues to put this model together. For both glues using a smaller amount is usually better than more glue.

3 - Refer to the assembly diagrams in the pictures section as well as the uploaded pictures for putting the model together. The model is meant to be glued.

Do not hesitate to ask questions, feedback is essential to making better models.
