I was inspired by loringczroby's beautiful work on his PackMan Boardgame, so I decided to make the Third level (my favorite) of MsPacMan with an appropriate size to fit my Ender-3 bed.
This board will need 3 colors: black, wood brown and white. It has 30 layers so you will need to add a "pause at layer height" twice to your g-code in order to change filaments. Start with black color, then at layer 27 change filament for wood brown color.
Last color change happens at layer 29 for white.
In the near future, I might make the other levels from MsPacMan in order to collect all 4 levels.

The design process
I used Fusion360 to make this 3D model, by importing an image of a MsPacMan level, in this case Level 3 (my favorite). I adjusted the size of the image in order to match a size to fit my Ender-3 bed. This board measures 186 x 168 mm.
I sketched the entire board and all the other elements, in this case the ghosts, the button and MsPacMan with her bow. This was a long process because you need to get a perfect copy of the image.
Then separate stl files were created and exported to my Cura slicer program.
The MsPacMan piece on a closer look from its side after printing, appears to be slightly trapezoidal. The same for the bow. Because of this, when gluing them together, it's preferred to rotate these pieces so they will fit better, otherwise the bow will look like it's in an angle. See picture. This was not done on purpose. I guess this happened due to the very small size of these elements.
