RobsonCoutoQuick update. After a 16h print, I broke the new part in the first 5 minutes. I'm not very experienced in 3d print and now I believe printing on its side made the case too weak. Also, the shell warped a lot, despite being PLA.
Because of this, I tried to remodel the shell to fit in my printer (300x300 mm), which bugged my designs a little. Kind of a setback.I may have to switch colors and I believe I have enough white to print the case. White with orange accents looks cool in my opinion.

I feel ya dude, large prints are a pain. On the coloring part - do you consider painting it later? Drying can hinder the process somewhat but depending on your material, it can totally save your design if you run out of specific filament.

Yeah?! It's the first time I print anything big. Got into 3d printing at the end of last year. Yes! Priming, sanding an painting would be the correct finish I think, but I never painted anything and also bit more than I can chew with the display driver and 3d modelling since the deadline is sooo short for the contest. Hope I can improve in a V2!

I like the orange/white combination, looks like an adult "flipper zero" :-)

Thanks Nik! I agree haha. I'm glad I already chose a keyboard with this palette!
