Hey all,
This is my first attempt at creating a low poly model print in blender. I was trying to recreate a weiro (Cockatiel) with a compartment in its back. I forgot the wings but happy with the how it came out.
I’m planning another print from the opposite corners of my print bed to give me more room.
The issues I’ll try fixing next time are:

let me know if you have any tips or can spot some obvious setting I missed, I’ve only had my printer for a few weeks.

That looks higher quality than your username would imply. Congrats!
Cheers and noted, I’ll decimate the model till it fits my username ;P
Nice, I’m surprised the spike came out so well, usually when I print something like that I have to print a small cylinder next to it or something to give it time to cool. If it tips over easily you can try making the feet further apart, or using a modifier to make the infill more solid on the bottom ~third of the print to lower it’s center of mass
It’s currently really cold here so that might help,
The lower center of gravity is a brilliant idea.
