THOR

pure sweetness!

i must say that this is pure awesome!!!

michaelwaynenellis@yahoo.com is my e-mail i need .stl files already in the size/scale you want and i can give you a quote. it takes about 10 days to turn things around after payment. hollow your parts out to at least 1-2mm thick. -THOR (Mike)

is a frogs arse water tight!? hahaha

I can quote you a price to print out some just for you....i'll have to check the minimum wall thickness of the printer. You could then cast them yourself? I use our 3d printer at work and my company charges me per cubic inch of material. poor/fuzzy picture of my 1/48 destroid: barrel a little bit too long....hahaha so freakin cool!

my 1/48 tomahawk pieces....woops barrels a bit too loooong. hehehe!

as soon as i belly ache about not getting mine...wahla! got mine in the mail. super awesome!

still waiting for mine, too. I ordered 2! -THOR

1/32 vf-1 is a dream of mine. hopefully soon to be a reality...

I use Solidworks9 right now and use calipers/micrometers to reverse engineer the parts and interpret line art, etc. Takes me a few hours each part depending on the shapes and details. Once done in solidworks I can scale it to any size I want keeping in mind the size of the printer i might use and trying to hollow stuff out as you are usually charged by the volume of material used to make your part. Scanning is my next step. I'll post scans of various items in a few weeks as i'm waiting for a higher powered laser with a very small diameter beam to show up at my door. -THOR

wing art... i likey... THOR

parts are here! gonna smooth them out and make some molds! still working on flaps/slats/etc...

i was quoted $90/hr. point cloud into usable file like .stl THOR

in process of building my own scanner while i save up for one. left to right 1/72, 1/48, 1/32

veritech missiles. just printed them out in 1/48 and 1/32 will post pics of the real stuff as soon as i can find my camera

I'm in for two -THOR

sounds good to me...i'll just need to round up line drawings from macross. i've seen them on other threads....

The masters will be printed in 3d using SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) & cleaned up by me wherever i'm not satisfied with the surface finish. I doubt I'll be able to do PE for a little while unless I find out it's terrible easy to do. I bought the Micro-Mark kit and it's on the way so I can start tinkering. Here is the model of a tire I made in 1/24th scale in Solidworks 9: Here is that tire printed out (on left) using SLS (low resolution): These are exciting times because I can print anything I can draw in just about any scale.... -THOR i want to eventually make a Gerwalk conversion kit...

great job! even without decals....looks very cool! -thor

box-o-missiles.... actually empty! -THOR will get to work on those slats! any other stuff you would like? tv cockpit panel? retracting ladder? launch deck with blast shield and dudes working the sidelines....hahahaha....hmmmm

i was thinking something along these lines....

ordered 2 sets today...can't wait! i hope jasmine makes one for the 1/48 vf-1.........pretty please with sugar on top...

curious to see what a combined missile & da bomb load would look like... now on to making masters....

da bomb

1/48 flaps.... no detail yet... checking flap/pylon clearance...we don't have clearance clarence...
