Part of the full kit (just found an issue with the legs I overlooked, so they will be up soon I promise along with the rest of the suit - this bad boy will take some printing tho so I thought I'd upload it first)
It is not cut, but I can supply a cut version if anyone has issues with the slicing but honestly its a bang up simple straight down the middle, as for the horizontal cut, well that's up...

Okay, since I am not cutting the parts up things will move much faster. As I said, small things that need assembling anyway like blasters and sabers etc, will still be in piece form. The full kit with backpack is available in the Level 3 Tier.
This consists of the separate dome, rebreathers and also the faceplate is a separate piece. It has no alignment pins because it only fits on th...

Well, a little more detailed and obscure than the average saber, hence being in the Level 3, it's also one that only a handful of people have modeled (and I see why now...)
This has all the LED fittings also, so if you want to add the blue and yellow leds there is space to do so (and a hollow core to fit batteries or a slide out internal. I have not seen the inside of this saber so I only ...

A little hard to find prop, reasonable simple print...
Sectioned into easily printable parts with joining accessories, separate gem, button, saber exit greeble and holder. All parts are centered, flat and repair checked, all you need to do is press print.
Measures 12"/30cm long in total when assembled.

Hiya,
Ok so this month we are going to be fixing up all the links, and as you can see with this post, the links are now attached and there will be the tags used properly so you can find things simply and easily from the top of the patreon page without the need to go hunting for random models to print. I should have done this some time ago.
This also is the first time ever (im pretty ...

Hi all,
As we grow it is becoming difficult for me to keep up with all the personal requests or need from patrons to cut up files and create assembly guides etc. I love to help, but I also have to be realistic. If I do get to my goal of 500 patrons, there is no way I can be cutting up individual pieces for hundreds of people, it's just not going to happen at the rate people want.

Heya,
Sorry for anyone who has not received a reply/link in the past few days, I injured my back chopping some firewood and have been a little off with the fairies on oxycodone... feeling a bit better now, can at least sit in a chair for more than an hour. Will get back to everyone tonight.

The dropbox links have been recycled due to some leaks, please message me for the latest ones for that model, for your level, thanks. If you can't message me for some reason let me know here and I will send you one. There is no more generic all-in-one archive. It no longer exists.
Moving forward I am going to upload each model to each post and use the...

Level 2 / 3 please check the previous link supplied (the Luke Hoth post) and you will find in the Level 2 folder the Mimban Stormtrooper Helmet mod.
At the moment it is still up for debate whether it is a full cut out on the side, or it is a half cutout - so I did both.
Print whichever you feel is more accurate, but for me, having seen the action figure in my hands, it h...

I am slowly getting through a lot of video content, of which is the run through of this sparkmaker which is proving to be a great little machine.
Sure, it has some hiccups but the print above was done at 0.5mm (honestly I dont see alot of difference between 0.25 and 0.5 besides the time being doubled.. the LCD is low res so it doesnt really do 0.25 that well anyway)

Welcome everyone! if we can keep growing like this things can only get better from here! The more patreons, the more time I get to spend making models and more time = better models. The latest models are just a reflection of that extra time I now have to do all that cool stuff like the stitching and detailing, a few more full body busts etc... what I would normally spend a few hours on I can...

I m actually printing the samurai storm trooper and it ran into a couple of hiccups, so i'm sort of glad I didn't upload it, once all the printing is done and I am happy with the fit of the pieces I will upload it, its alot of printing to have any mistakes arise.
So, while thats getting sorted I'm all finished with this sort of random prop... not a sword, not a blaster, not a helmet... but somet...

As promised some time back, Arnie the half bust is available to all patrons to print.
This has been test printed now several times and fixed several times... and also a few parts adjusted, the exposed shoulder now sits level with the other shoulder, the abdomen cutout is gone.. a few pipes are thicker that were breaking easily etc..
Included are 2 x versions, one for FDM printi...

As stated previously, Level 1 is a $3 subscription now, not a $1 per month.
All Patreons who signed up for the $1 package stay on that package as long as they are subscribed.
Be aware that if you unsubscribe from the service and come back at a later date, you would have to sign back up under the new $3 subscription plan as the $1 option is now disabled...

Ok.. I won't tease you with any more before some models come.. sorry :) just thought I would pop this one up before I get to uploading for the day.

Thanks to Adam for the suggestion, I had an attempt at a Silence bust, I think on a second attempt I could do much better but as I said, first attempt at one. I went pretty heavy on the surface detail as I want to see how far I can push my SLA printer but it should be enough that even on an FDM it comes out pretty clean. He is in the dropbox for all patrons Link below, valid till the e...

I don't often do busts or Dioramas for Level 3, but this one took that much time to do that time /effort really reflects level 3 access and not Level 1 or 2.
As the pic above sorta gives it away, Luke on Hoth. Like the Terminator Head, I have used Toshi_TNE's Luke head (just google Toshi_TNE) so this model is 98% mine, ie everything but the face. I am also experimenting with some new...

I had sculpted this before I thought of the new system, so this is the last piece that will be in this format, I have uploaded it in both the chess piece and the bust by itself. The reason I uploaded this even tho it's not really going to be part of this final set of pieces is I printed it and man, it came out super clean, no supports.. one of those prints thats smooth in the right places with not...

Terminator full bust coming later today, all issues are fixed with it now also a little more accurate than it was before.

Heya, I have tonnes of stuff to try and get uploaded for you guys and Level 3 also, as soon as they upload I'll try and post but check periodically for new models in the dropbox. The head by itself minus the body was just smaller and uploaded first :) This is just the head but in much higher res so you can print alot larger than the half torso (which is very wide on the printer bed)...

Here is something a little different this week, have had a few requests for some time for Genji based helmets so I thought I would give one a go just for something out of the norm.
I am also using a new joint system as you can see that locks the pieces in alot more efficiently than thin little pins.
Since my internet is down (hence dropbox) I will just attach them to the posts here.
