About

The pocket-sized little sibling of our Pumpkin Lantern. Only 30 snap-fit pieces and a quick print, so it is easy to make several for a Halloween shelf or as party gifts. Inward-curving lower edges and a sloped top give it a rounded pumpkin silhouette. The front has mischievous slanted eyes and a ▽ grin with zigzag teeth, and on top sit a brown stem, a green cap and a curling leaf.

Size

  • Body footprint is 6 × 4 studs, about 4.8 × 3.2 cm, on a 3.2 × 3.2 cm black base.
  • Body height is about 4.5 cm; about 7 cm including the stem and leaf.

Color palette (4 colors)

  • Orange: body, teeth, and the edges of the eyes and mouth.
  • Black: base, and the lining of the eyes and mouth.
  • Brown: stem.
  • Green: stem cap and leaf.

Why the mini version

  • 30 pieces instead of 45, and a much shorter print.
  • Every piece prints with a standard 0.4 mm nozzle.
  • A good first build: four small modules, no glue.

Assembly notes

  • Each module sits on the studs of the one below and lifts off by pulling straight up.
  • The eyes and mouth are not cut through: black lining bricks behind the orange slopes create the carved look.
  • The stem bridges the front and back slopes of the top and locks them together.
  • Recommended order: base, lower row, mouth row and bottom tooth, upper lip band with top tooth, eye row, top slopes, stem, cap and leaf.
