Description Buddy3D PLA+ Skin tone filament in 4 matte skin tones used in prosthetics. This special series was created in response to demand from the 3D printing community and therefore offers the four most commonly used skin tones, marked with Pantone numbers, which the community helped select as the most suitable for prosthetics and other projects. The matte finish of the filament also makes the final prints even more similar to the actual appearance of skin. Backstory Acknowledging the incredible diversity of skin tones across the world, Filament PM worked closely with their American partner, IMADE3D, and data from The Johns Hopkins Hospital to select the most common tones used in prosthesis manufacturing. These tones were then used to manufacture a range of various test spools. --> Community-Powered Selection Volunteers from the global e-NABLE organization helped with the selection of the must-have skin tones. The filament test spools flew to the USA, South Africa, Algeria, France and Turkey. A big thank you goes out to the shipping company ByTorp s.r.o., who helped with sending out these filament test kits and arranged everything free of charge. Volunteers printed the filament, commented on the look and printability, and each selected their top 4 shades. The winners are Pantone shades 480c, 479c, 478c and 477c. For the sake of better traceability and communication, Filament PM decided to keep the filament named after each Pantone shade. --> Why PLA+? PLA
