Parametric Powerpuffs by @samticknor. Customize powerpuffs with sugar, spice, and everything nice #chemicalx
I came across the idea to make parametric power puff girls when I was reciting the formula. Sugar, spice, and everything nice (chemical x not included). I started thinking about changing those three variables to get all of the girls in between blossom, bubbles, and buttercup.
It was certainly a challenge to figure out what parts could be reused in each of the girls. I started by modeling buttercup, and then the others, to get my initial bounds and positioning.
Overall, I am very pleased with the result. At each stage, the girls are different. It is really fun to play with and even plugging in numbers outside of the suggested range (0-1) yields interesting results.
Unfortunately, OpenSCAD will not export my files to .STI because “the object isn’t a valid 2-manifold :(
Here is the code, which is also on GitHub:
