Sentries are more than just visual elements; they are interconnected AI entities designed to safeguard the modules and Specimens housed within. Silent and ever-watchful, they are responsible for ensuring the security and integrity of the Kura’s collection, responding swiftly to potential threats or disruptions. Their smooth yet imposing forms reflect a dual nature—both technological and organic, functional yet artistic.

Sentry 001 prints in two parts: the red “Core” of the AI, which serves as its central processing and sensory unit, and the black technological case that supports and protects it. To assemble, simply use super glue to secure the Core to the case.
For added creativity, experiment with different top-fill patterns during printing. For Cores, my favorites are Hilbert Curve and Concentric, but any pattern is possible.
Material choice and colors are flexible—PLA works well, but feel free to explore more exotic materials. If you’re printing with a nozzle size larger than 0.4mm, I recommend testing connection tolerances to ensure the best fit.
At the center of the Core is a 3mm hole with M3 hexa nut chamber for securing it to the Vexel (you can use glue instead, but I personally prefer screws). A print pause is required to insert the hex nut.
