This is the latest version of the Linkin Park logo. (as of creating) After getting a request to make this model, putting some of the details I did in the first model, I got to work on it right away.

This one, I put much more effort into after learning the benefits of actively drawing the logo in CAD. Before I used a combination of programs to get the model, then add some post processing features. Actively drawing the model ups the creation time, especially on more complex models, but makes the post processing details more smooth and overall good looking.

Base model: This is the basic model with no details on the “face” of the model. All versions, including this one, include a rounding on the bottom outer edge. This is for print removal so that the print will not be completely suctioned onto the build plate.

Inner Round: This model has decorative rounding on the face of the model. The model did not want to play nicely with the rounding in CAD, so I had to make it variable in (from what I remember,) a single place on the top tip of the “P.” While I personally still think it turned out well, It is something different of note. This is the model featured in the print profile and pictures on this post.

Outer Round: This model has a linear rounding around the outer edge of the whole model. Since this is just a circle, it presented no issues.

Inner Angling: This one I had to make some calls design wise. The rounding was much easier to work with in this model, and the angling liked to give me issues. So I gave this model different angling values out of necessity, but also to try to go with the kind of abstractness of the logo. It's not my favorite, but I included it because it was difficult, and I think there may be someone who would enjoy it.

Outer Angling: Much like the outer rounding, this adds an angle design to the outer edge of the model's face. And once again, since the outer edge is a circle, it caused no issues.

Hanging:

Thumb Tacks: Since I forgot to test my thumb tack hole creator, I hung the model this time by just putting clear thumb tacks on each side of the top of the “L.” It's not the most pretty, but it get's the job done.

Something similar but a little more discrete is using skinny, small headed nails. I think another name for these are "finishing nails." These are what I used on my Skyrim logo model. It once again is not perfect, but get's the job done a little better.

Another option is an adhesive solution. I've never used any of these, so I don't know how well they would work, but it's a suggestion.

The last option I can think of is to just alter the model to include holes as hanging hooks for your solution. I included all my models as step files to try to make this a little easier. This should also be easier once I get my hole creator model figured out.
