3D Print Monsters
-
I did not ask the price. Stefan ordered a bunch and is sending me one. I do know that iMaterialise ran it through their program and figured out how much to hollow the model. You can see some of that in the feet.
-
That's pretty sweet, Eric!
Did you use textures or just SU colors?
-
Eric. .. those are wonderful. Very nicely done. And don't worry. . .my pants are faceted too.
Happens a lot actually . . .
-
Just SU Colors Marcus. The top image was rendered with Twilight while the finely dressed monster is straight SU output.
-
Those turned out quite nice!
-
Thanks Eric.
With their help hollowing your model, it seems that iMaterialise helps customers with their models much more than Shapeways, whom I usually use. Good to know if I have a troublesome model.
-
That's fantastic Eric, character modelling in sketchup was an obsession of mine, well done
-
Awesome, Eric! loving it.
I look forward to seeing more.

Thanks a bunch guys.

Excellent stuff Eric, glad to see you posting again also.
I have been itching to 3D print some of my now over 300 cartoon characters, waiting to either win one or one fall off a truck as I'll never afford one (wife says if it ain't gonna make money I don't need it)
-
Pete, you could use a print service like Shapeways or iMaterialise... Cheaper than buying a printer, plus there is a huge range of materials. One little 3-4" model will run ~$20-30.
The home printers are pretty much a pain anyways, trying to get a decent print can take more time than modeling it and you only get one (or sometimes 2) colors. A professional color printer like the one use to print Eric's model (Stefan's design) above runs about $50K.

Thanks Pete.
One of our members sent me a 3D print of my dunny. Here is the blue version he kept, I had him print me white.
Now if I could just get a metal print of my dunny 84 I would be fulfilled
-
Good stuff, Eric.

She's got a point.
