I am very happy with the way this one came out, also considering this is the first no support print i designed.
One quick note though - the hobbit (bilbo) i did not design, rather i found him here :
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4031152
I did edit his arms to move them down a bit so that he could also be printed without supports, however this requires you to print him on his head as in the image attached. this means you will need to add a brim or as i did just support under his head just to be able to hold it in place on the bed while printing. then most importantly is it measure 8mm tall, so it is tiny and to get detail i printed him at 0.07mm layer height.
then one more note is the hanging chain lamp - i added this after i had printed everything, so this is not attached to the model - rather it is printed flat on the bed also without supports and then glued into place.
as for the rest , all four sides are printed laying flat on the bed - i printed at 0.2 layer height 10% infill
Then i painted and added the LED's - there are holes in the side of the walls for small LED's for most lamps excepting the hanging chain lamp, i glued the LED in place then ran thin wires up behind the chain, along the roof and out the back, this because as i said it was added after.
EDIT: i have uploaded the stairs separate as was requested by someone, it requires your printer to handle bridging quite well, and if it fails you dont want to have to print everything over again…
