About this model

The Cranky model by dreicon is very popular and is a great model indeed, but I'm not a fan of his face. So I used the leaked official model by Nitrogen Studios (all credit goes to them) and edited two variants of the face to be easily 3D printable and compatible with dreicon's model. You have two options, either happy or angry cranky, both models optimized either for FDM or resin. How to print it in FDM Keep the FDM on it's side, you'll preserve all the detail that way. Print with 0.1 mm detail and brim. Than just cut away the support, paint the face and glue it to your Cranky. I hope you enjoy :)
