I really like the lucky cow model. I needed to print the model at 20% of its size for a project, but will all the details on the bull back the bull came out looking lumpy (i was printing with a voxelab Aquila X2, I have attached a photo of this version. it is the Back one). So I needed to smooth it out to make the smaller model look good.

Print Settings

Printer:

Voxelab Aquila

Rafts:

No

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

.16

Infill:

5 or 15 Gyroid

Filament:

SunLu PLA


Notes:

Print at 20% scale to get the same size as my print.

I used Cura 5.1.0 for my slicer, the printer profile I use is a stock [Ender 3](https://www.amazon.com/Official-Creality-3D-Removable-220x220x250MM/dp/B07K3SZBHJ?dchild=1&keywords=ender+3&qid=1612857257&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=thingiverse09-20&linkId=5419ace64a5f58b068a896710257ed13&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl) Pro.

I have a .4mm nozzle, in order to get the details to print properly, I set my "Line Width" to .3mm (this also automatically changed the following to .3mm in Cura "wall line width", "outer wall Line Width'", "inner wall line width", Top/bottom line width", "infill line width", and "skirt/brim line width")

If you happen to use the stock Ender 3 pro profile I have included the G-code for the small bull

How I Designed This

Smoothing

I just popped the stl into meshmixer and used the tool. this tool out some of the other details, so if you print the bull at 100% the size just be aware of that. If you are printing it smaller it looks great
