    Thanks!

    Got a lot done on the Heli-Carrier this weekend...it's almost ready to fully assemble and finish painting.

    I really want to make a display with this one, and the newer style one together, for the next Convention I go to. :)

    That came out really great. I love it. :D

    Thanks.

    The Argo successfully made it all the way to it's assigned starbase, I just found out. :)

    Still working on the Heli-Carrier, even have some jets for the flight deck. They are just a little to big, but that's the smallest I was able to print them. :)

    More later... have to model up a stand for it, too.

    Too bad you can't print them any smaller. Still, they look good. You might be able to buy some smaller ones at the local hobby store. The carrier looks great.
  • madman1701amadman1701a339 Posts: 366Member
    Thanks. :)

    I did cut down the planes some, to make the smaller and look more like a quinjet. I think they turned out pretty good.

    Clearcoat and final pics tomorrow night. :)

    Yeah, the planes look really good now. :)

    Evening, everybody. :)

    I didn't make to the Heli-Carrier tonight, but I started my next project...

    A helmet for a Lich King costume.

    This model started out as part of the actual video game model I found online as an OBJ, which I cleaned up adjusted so that it will actually fit over a person's head. I smoothed it out quite a bit with subdivisions, also.

    Modeling is done, but I'm trying to figure out how to slice it up to fit in the printer.:)

    I also found Blender's OpenGL render preview button... in 8 years, I never knew I could do that!

    Costume? Does that mean this will be full size? That's sweet.
  • madman1701amadman1701a339 Posts: 366Member
    Yep, that's the goal. :)

    It's not going to be easy, getting these parts cut out... but I'm looking forward to trying. :)

    While I wait for approval on the other two models, I started another one. :)

    This one is the Arwing, from the game Starfox64. I'll also be doing the Wolfen, which is an enemy ship in the game.

    This is a smaller model, it will be about 6.5 inches long when completed.

    More soon,

    Sweet! I absolutely love that. :thumb:

    I still have Starfox 64. Great game. Hell, I may even still have the original Starfox around here somewhere.
  • madman1701amadman1701a339 Posts: 366Member
    Thanks. :)

    Well, the Heli-Carrier is 100% complete and ready to deliver to it's owner tomorrow, even though I want to hang on to it a while longer. :)

    Back to work on the StarFox stuff now. :)

    It looks great. Now you just need to make one for yourself. :)

    I liked the other Helicarrier from Marvel's The Avengers (as in the movie version).
