Design is to be printed out in separate parts in the corresponding colors to eliminate the need to paint. This also allows everyone to be able to print this design regardless of what printer you are using.
I recently got the opportunity to play the new Zelda Echoes of wisdom for a few hours and was pleasantly surprised at how great a game that was. Absolutely thrilled they created a fantastic game in the Zelda-verse that you get to play as Zelda being the main protagonist. I had so much fun running around waving her wand and zapping my own monsters into existence, trying to figure out which monster was best at fighting another or just defending against attacks.
I found it a thrill zapping a boarblin into existence and shouting "Go get U'm Piggy!!" Hahaha.
The one boss fight left me laughing hysterically, as I created my boarblin, patted him on the back, and told him, " You Got this Piggy!" He proceeded to head towards EVIL LINK as I ran and hid in the corner.
Unfortunately, Piggy didn't survive that one...
And after a brief moment to mourn the loss of one boarblin I just simply created another, and gave him some words of encouragement, "Avenge your brother! You... You got this Piggy!!"
And around, and around this went on until my wife so rudely stole the controller and said,
"No, piggy doesn't "got this".
Haha
I just had so much fun with the game, story line, game play, and puzzles. I highly recommend playing it for yourself and sending your own piggies out to fight and die in your honor.
I had to create my own Zelda Echoes character, and I am so excited to be releasing the files now.
Printing…
I did go through the parts and can say I have eliminated the need for s.
I did have some issues printing out the yellow top part of the staff though. It has a rather small area to attach to the build plate, and is a bit top heavy. Without excellent build plate adhesion this part will be tricky to print. You will definitely need to add a brim to the part, or simply just print the yellow top staff with stabilizer. I created a bit of a stabilizer to be printed with the staff. This should help create better build plate adhesion, and keep the staff standing in place while the top-heavy part finishes printing.
I highly recommend using a good quality build plate like the Panda Build Plate CryoGrip found on Amazon. I have been using these build plates for a while now and can honestly say they have been a game changer. The bed adhesion is fantastic, and parts will pop off freely with the flex of the plate. My only issue would be, it doesn't leave the bottom part of the print looking great, but on most parts that isn't a big deal as the bottom will never be seen once assembled
Assembly…
Should be fairly simple. Dry fit everything in place before adding glue.
I highly recommend PLA Gloop, if you can get your hands on it.

Starbond Adhesives make a good CA or super glue alternative at a lower price point. I recommend the Medium or Thick formula. I would defiantly pick up some Accelerator if your planning on using the Thick formula.
The main head and face needs to be assembled first. Then place the completed head into the dark blue hood and slide the top pin attached to the purple dress up through the hood and into the bottom of the face, locking the face into the hood.
Then attach the dark blue front scarf before adding the arms and hands to the purple dress.
The arms are keyed separately to indicate left from right. You will have to pay attention to the keys and the holes. The arm key and hand keys are a bit different, but easy enough to figure out what goes where by trial and error. Once again, I highly recommend dry fitting everything in place before adding glue.
Not too much else to note here as I did find the assembly fairly simple enough once all the parts are printed.
