Sabine helmet back gap update

I was also told there is a wide gap when the back plate connects to the ears, so i updated the ears so the gap is no longer there if you wish to continue with that version :)

so in case anyone wants to use those instead :D

Sabine/Pacer Agoyo helmet

Hope you didnt wait too long for it :) 

The Sabine/ Pacer Agoyo helmet :) 

As always broken down into parts for easier assembly , and i 've also added a little extra - a moveable vizor :) 


I also added:

- clean top plate - so you can paint it to your own style 

- one with painjob "marked" ( they markings are barely visible - so its easier to fill in and are  used as painting guide)

- side markings png with transparent bac...

Roman infantry dagger :)

And yet another piece of the Roman infantry :D

I'm not gonna lie, i am having so much fun with this set :D Once its all done im gonna turn it into a statue :D

The Dagger - once again a futuristic take with some ancient elements. Our roman infantry trooper is a big special ops kind of guy, so a big vibroblade inspired dagger is something i can see him carry around :)

Once again a fully original design, split into parts for easier printing, and before you ask me ( no i didn...

Roman Infantry getting better :)

I guess we will need a name for this one as well now :)

I present to you the Roman infantry blaster rifle :)   

You might notice I took some inspiration from westar m5, some star citizen concept designs and you'll definitely notice a familiar stock ( it's the one as on the deathwatch blaster). While I was making it the stock was just perfect for the blaster so it had to be included :)   

the size is roughly as large as the alien pulse rifle, and at th...

The new references were very helpfull, and for those who are wondering, yes, the concept art is a bit diferent than the final production version they used in the show

I still have some minor details polishing to do ( likt he grip) but we are getting there, so i hope it will be ready for release / printing tomorrow :)

Thank you all for the nice wishes for my recovery, luckly im no longer in hospital, not fully recovered yet, but strong enought to continue working ( and i ahve been missing it :D D ) View Post

Unfortenatelly i have ended up in hospital yesterday due to some respiratory problems. I will answer all your inbox messages as soon as possible, but i kindly ask for a bit more patience.

Beebox - Vambrace fix

Hope everyone is doing well at this begining of a new week :)

Anyways, here's a quick fix everyone. It has come to my attention that the vambraces on the beebox flare out quite allot due to me not understanding match and doing wrong calucations :D haha just kidding, but yeah, the shapes were not matching real life proportions, so that is fixed now

To make sure if will fit this time i have used a 3d scan of my arm to match it to that, now keep in mind you will have some sort of ...

ROMAN INFANTRY ARMOR

The Roman infantry armor is here :)

It all started quite a while ago, inspired by one of the AI generated images.

The Roman infantry helmet was quite popular and one of the most badass helmets out there if i may say so myself, so i'm proud to show you the roman infantry armor :)

There is no AI generated art to use on the armor design, so it's all fully created by me with no reference images in mind - i hope i did somewhat met your expectations, but that's how i envisio...

Name the blaster while your print it :)

As promised, the beebox handgun is here :)

I don't really have a name for it, soooo let's make this fun, and post your suggestions for the name :) we can vote on the best name :)

Its a bit of our gunslinger mando style mixed with old republic tech combined to bring to life a unique SW bounty hunter inspired blaster :)

As always, a fully combined version as well sliced into parts is included, and that wraps up the beebox bounty hunter armor :)

Beebox blaster rifle

Once again inspired by the concept art seen in the beebox folder :)

As always there is a split part option as well completely solid for small scale or full scale 1 piece resin printing, and the option to have 3d printable lenses.

the 680 x 10 mm rod/pvc/wood insert can be placed for structural strength

One more piece of weapon will be added, a "handgun" which I hope to wrap up by tomorrow , and then the full beebox armor will...

Nite Owls lamp :)

I thought i'd take a bit of a break during the weekend but i couldnt help it and made us a nite owls desk lamp :D 

I've seen these first layer multicolor prints getting more and more popular so I figured I'd give it a shot :) 

The easiest way to make it is using bambu lab with AMS, or any other multicolor printing method.

Printing multi color with single extruder and no other hardware is a bit more complicated but i provided a video link from a guy on YT who explai...

However i didn't manage to finish up his weapons, so i will take a short break for the weekend and add those next week

The jetpack took me the longest to make, its a fully original design, and i made it compatible with our previous 3d printable back plate/jetpack mounts as well JJ industry metal harness

The jetpack once again comes in multiple versions:

Update on what's to come :) 

I know on the 5th or 6th the new month's link gets sent out, and i wanted to surprise you to send out this armor with the link, however unfortunately it is not yet ready. SO, I would kindly ask you to give me another 2-3 days so i can wrap it up along with weapons and jetpack and then i will send it all over with the new months link ;) 

I'm sure we are all familiar  with the beebox  helmet - it's one of the first models you g...

Mandalore The Ultimate - DOWNLOAD HERE

Not gonna lie, I was a bit tired of everyone out there doing the same things, so that combined with my urge to do an organic sculpt I dived a bit into the Mandalorian folklore :) Oh and what wonderful things to be found :D

Inspired by the images attached i have created Mandalore the Ultimate mask/half mask. Based on some research there there isn't a complete helmet only the half mask.

Attached are the photos i used for inspiration, and it truly is a unique mask. Ofc some slight ad...

You've seen the functional prototype but here's the real deal now :)

While i was making it the inside "chamber" where the suit is, looked like it could be a cool ring as well, so I went and made a little "fidget" ring , so you have an "extra" ring in the  "pack" :)

To recap, included are:

Paz Vizsla torso armor update

Our beloved Paz  :) The long due front torso update is finally here. I took some extra care trying to get the proportions as close as possible , and ofc i also did my best to recreate the battle damaged effect :)

So as before you now have the clean and battle damaged versions  :)

The scale is an attempt to match the old one but given they are different proportions and shapes overall I recommend double checking just in case before printing :)

Yes, I do plan to ma...

Attached in the photo you can see where the strips are cut out from the helmet so you have a sense of position

Made the wider holes for Cal's lightsaber electronics just in case. So far there were 3 cases of holes being too small but it would appear its just the electronics diference so this should work now

Finally I'm back from my trip, I loved every minute of it, but I want straight up to finish up Cal's lightsaber, insert electronics and take a few photos of video to show you what it looks like when done.

You asked for the staff version of the hilt,, so i added another grip that will turn the one handed lightsaber into a staff version but just in case you missed it - the hilt 2 that i released before is also a staff version, it can also fit electronics, so to recap now you can use this...

The entire build is modular, meaning you can switch between parts with the screw on mechanism ( tested, its strong, very strong :) )

Jedi survivor :)

I'm not gonna spoil the game too much, but the game offers modular blasters, so ofc another original mysterymakers approach is here :)

I have created the "blank" LW 896 blaster from the game, modular design - that means, the parts are interchangeable, and all blaster parts are "locked" by 2 screws, which means you can interchange the parts however you wish :)

Now this is just the beginning, as we see more parts in the game, they will be added and in time we will have tons of parts...

The helmet is as always designed with 3d easy 3d printing, accuracy and easy assembly in mind. It can be printed on small (prusa type printers) , and there is also a 1/6 version for small scale printing.
