This is a custom-designed, functional Poison Ivy character bust that doubles as a highly detailed display statue and a living planter!

The model features a hollow core to hold dirt/water at the base, with a network of small, strategically placed holes integrated into the torso, vines, and hair. It is designed so that as your planted vines or stems grow, they will naturally snake out through the holes of the model, bringing the Poison Ivy aesthetic to life with real greenery!

⚠️ WORK IN PROGRESS (WIP): Please note that this is an active project. I am currently tweaking and refining the 3D model to optimize it for better printing performance, easier plant care, and cleaner vine routing. Stay tuned for updates and revised file iterations!

🛠️ Recommended Print Settings (IMPORTANT)
Because of the intricate geometry of the hair, vines, and face, do not print this in Vase Mode. To keep the inside hollow for soil/roots while maintaining maximum wall strength, use the following slicer configurations:

Infill Density: 0% (Keeps the core completely hollow for your plants/stems).
Wall Loops / Perimeters: 3 to 4 walls (Crucial for structural strength since there is no infill).
Bottom Shell Layers: 4 to 5 layers (Creates a strong, rigid base).
Top Shell Layers: 0 (If you want the top of the head completely open) OR 4 to 5 layers (If you are printing a closed head—requires excellent bridging).
Supports: Enable Tree Supports (Organic/Slim). Set them to "Touching Buildplate Only" so your slicer doesn't fill the hollow internal plant cavity with support material.
Material Suggestion: PETG is highly recommended over standard PLA if you plan to use wet soil, due to its superior moisture resistance and durability.
Note: To ensure the base is completely water-tight and won't weep moisture onto your furniture, consider upping your hotend temperature by 5°C to maximize layer bonding, or coat the inside base with a thin layer of epoxy resin/liquid rubber after printing.
