I designed a multicolor 8-bit piranha plant hidden jar for a friend. designed to be printed on a single extruder with manual filament changes. its designed to be put together mostly without glue. Most of the pieces are press fit. The slot between the flowers may need sanded and smoothed. the top is held on by three 6.4mm*3mm magnets. The inside cavity is 65mm*55mm. see the final photo for assembly.
The three files contain multiple bodies and will need to be split apart and arranged in your slicer. I've also included the separate color files for the flower in case your slicer is troublesome
The flowers were printed using the technique I saw on make anything’s video below.

all printed on a Prusa i3 MK3S
the pipe was printed in proto-pasta metallic green HTPLA the insert was printed in inlaid black PLA
the lid is the only part that will need support. I placed my lid upside down a supported the inside. no support on the plant hole. It’s horrible to get out. the support marks will be covered by the insert.

the flowers must be printed at 0.15mm layer height
the color layers are 0.6mm thick which means 4 layers of color
print the colors, then the middle part and glue together.
