I was experimenting with bottom patterns in Orca and octagon spiral looked cool. I tried it with RGB filament and it came out amazing!

There is a depth to it and it changes with the angle

I haven't seen this before online so figured I'd share!

I was trying to figure out what it looked like! I used to have a wallpaper that was bismuth and couldn't remember the name of the material!

Gotta find that so it matches

I have done something similar by purposefully adding patterns on the bottom of a 3D model.

I had never thought of using different layers patterns for my muti-color filament, gotta try this now

Come back and share! I really want to try this with all types of silk filament now. Even just gold would look really cool.

This is a magsafe case I designed for my OnePlus Open with a hole for a kickstand (which is mounted on my phone)

It looks crazy in the sunlight, very muted in this indoor pic.
