The original project you can find in Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1116392
This is a diary about printing this project and a thing what I learn about 3d printing and models so expect a lot of pics and explanation.
Day 1
Printed 2 legs out of the 8 that it has. As you can see it prints the bones in two-part and you have to glue them together which will create a line that will be visible if someone would look at it closely. I found a video about this problem link it here. Lesson learned here because the painting should have come after applying the wood filling and sanding it down. I used a primer from Army Painter the skeleton color one. It looks like a scary little haunted house. Forums said to leave it drying for around 15-30 minutes depending on ventilation, I left it for an hour outside.
Applied skeleton primer
After putting them together nice and snuggly as my friend would say "I would not say it's nice'" (meaning its cool but scary) :)
