So far I've designed my countryballs for special occasions. I would have never thought war will be one of them.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has been going on for almost three months now. Ive designed this Ukraineball as a way to salute the Ukrainian soldiers and the volunteers fighting alongside them and also to show our support to Ukranien menbers of the 3D printing community.

As my other countryball models the parts can be printed separately on a single head FDM printer with minimal supports (the helmet needs some on the front and read edges) and assembled with snap-fit joints as seen in the image below. Make sure to properly attach the two halves first before adding the helmet.
