A free standing pixel heart, inspired by retro 8-bit pixel art.

The pixels are 10x10mm, the heart is about 115x30x115mm

It would be nice to put a light in it, but the model would probably need some adaptations, maybe a thinner shell (The picture was just made with a flashlight shining through).

I also made a version as a box: https://www.printables.com/model/395826-pixel-heart-box

Printing:

  • You need to print 1 of the stand, 2 of part A and 2 of part B.
  • All parts can be printed without supports: print upside down. Good bed adhesion is required, as the ‘pixels’ are printed seperately on the first layers.
  • I printed in PETG, 0.4 nozzle and 0.65mm extrusion width.
  • Wall thickness is 1.2mm, this can print with 2 perimeters.

The parts can be glued together, although it seems to hold together pretty well as is.
