More 3D Printing

Well, it appears that I dropped off the face of the Earth. :D

Been working hard on all of my convention display... got a bunch of stuff painted, pre-painted and almost ready to paint. :)

Got a few more things in the works too, but I'm aiming for about 25 individual models this year.

Thanks guys!

Those are really stunning. I didn't know you had an Outrider :D
Yep, I didn't make it from scratch, though. I tweaked a model I found on Thingiverse. :D

Where's the Ebon Hawk? :D
Haha, I have files for one! It was a toss up between it and the Outrider. I miss KOTOR...

Well, you haven't been idle, that's for sure.
Looks like it will be a great display.

Thanks! It'll have a lot more stuff than I had last year, for sure.

Hey guys, been busy again!

I got the whole convention display ready, and I'm starting to get excited!

Setup begins tomorrow evening, so I'm pumped. I'll be spending all morning getting everything boxed up for transport, and planning for my big panel I'm hosting Friday night.

I'll post some convention pics, as they happen. :D

-Ricky
 
Thanks!

Well, the show went great! I've spent all week re-tooling and prepping for all the new orders. We sold almost everything I took, and took orders for more cool stuff I'll be posting soon. :D

I raised enough to buy the new QiDi tech printer that I'd had my eye on for the past several months, too! So, now I have 3!

Some pics of the show:

I also had a panel going on, where I discussed what's all involved in building a 3D Printed ship from scratch, going from Blender to the Printer. :)

More stuff soon!

OH MY GOD. how much for a 2001 USS Discovery? lol I must have it. EDIT: Nevermind, it says so in the pic. However, is that the price for a painted up one? or just the parts?

Haha, thanks! That's actually for the finished one. Send me a PM!
(Mods, I posted the pictures before I realized that I had prices on the stuff at my table. This wasn't a ploy to sell stuff in this thread, I promise!)

Toy companies need to talk to you.
Congrads bro!
That table looks epic!

Thanks guys! More stuff coming up soon. :)

-Ricky
 
Whew, been working hard over here. :D

Been trying to make all these requests that I got at the convention! The revolver is destined for part of an Indiana Jones cosplay; It's a Webley model, like the one he uses in Last Crusade. Also, that Serenity is 15" long!

16729027_1206914086090658_1250886927561215731_n.jpg

And made of 14 parts!

Enterprise Parts!

Ready to get back on it tonight. :D

-Ricky
 
Thanks. :)

One of the more interesting requests I had at Pensacon was for a diorama of the Original Enterprise attacking the TARDIS. After some thinking, This is what I came up with!

The phaser beams are the same coat hanger rod that I use for stands, and will be painted with glow in the dark paint for some special effects.

Should be painting it soon!

(I know, it's not exactly the TOS Enterprise, but I think it will look better with more detail. :D )
