I won't say it was easy, but it was definitely easier than I expected once I started. Time consuming? Yeah. Tricky? Yeah. But since you can undo mistakes, it's not actually that hard to get something good.

That'd be great!I'd love to see what Leela looks like when portrayed realistically instead of in the Matt Groening style. She's got pretty basic clothes, and hair, but they're still recognizable, so she'd be a pretty good choice for this kind of approach.

Thanks for the great recommendations! Now excuse me while I go binge Zach's videos...

I think I'm going to make Five before the end of the year. We'll see.

I've had great success with superglue.Recently I've noticed it's often sold as a gel, which isn't bad, but traditional superglue, the really thin liquidly kind, works great on PLA. You have to have good contact, because it won't fill even small gaps, but it's what I used on this model and if you press parts together for ten seconds they bond strongly.

Thank you, although the secret was patience more than talent.

The park forbid us from using stakes. They'd just completed some landscaping and didn't want us tearing up any ground at all. If I were putting this up in my backyard, I'd definitely add stakes to this.

This was built based on feel. Reducing the angle is probably smart.

Could you provide a link I can add?

as Billrose mentioned, her name is Mabel. It's Mabel Syrup.

How did you add the thumbnails to your list of tools??
