I lovingly call him the Licky Leo Gecko. Who doesn't love seeing these silly fellas lick their eyes for moisture. This new Patreon Exclusive variant showcases this odd and wonderful behavior. Who needs tear ducts anyways? Of course with the new head sculpt also means a new refrigerator magnet! Get both now from the "Current Download Links" post. *The Licky Leo Gecko will only be available as a free download until December 31st. After that it will be available again in April 2023, for purchase.

3D PRINTING SETTINGS
Head with Pre-Supports: (removable supports are built into the head model, no additional supports needed) (Recommended)
Body with custom Brim: (Print-in-Place, Brim geo is built in so no need to generate one.)
Head: Snap-Fit to Body. Requires Support "Touching Buildplate". (I like "Tree" supports)
Body: Print-In-Place. No Supports (Aside from a Brim)
Good bed adhesion is a must! I highly suggest using a BRIM or RAFT to make sure the tail stays upright as the segments build, or use the "customBrim" version of the body.
10-20% Infill.
3 Walls.
Here is a quick video showing the easiest method for snap-fitting the head onto the body: https://youtu.be/DWsYu2BY7ow
Scale to your liking! 100% creates a 10" model, so that will make it easy to scale it to your desired size. (80% = 8", 75% = 7.5", etc.) Depending on your printer tolerances, you should be able to print close to 60-65% before the joint function may start to become compromised. YMMV

This tongue was painted. I think iSanmate High Speed Pink would be a fairly close match to this shade, if I'm remembering it right.

Adorable! Is the tongue painted? If it’s a filament what filament is it please?

They are just painted. The iris, pupil, and highlight are part of the model sculpt, then I just paint each a different color.

Do you paint the eyes or are they the craft glass eyes? If they are the craft type eyes what size are they? Thank you

Off topic, recently I found out that the sensitivity of the eyes of a gecko is 350 times greater than that of a person) An amazing gecko turned out! I like it
