Just wanted to share that I finally after getting my 3d printer two months ago was able to get some good stuff worth to show.
I have been doing some test with different filaments, painting and sanding techniques, etc.
Here are some interesting results:

Green Lantern Ring:
I create the ring exactly to fix my middle finger size and print it in a Glow-In-Dark PLA. After that I paint the entire ring but leave the GL symbol unpainted so I can charge it with light and make it glow. The ring has no batteries at all.

Terminator:
Fully 3d Printed skull with some twicks, sanding, apoxy and paint. Light and batteries are built in the box, I also added a switch to the box and a custom Terminator label to it.

Hope you like them!

Is that Endo Skull 1:1? Both the ring and the skull are very cool btw.

May I ask what printer you purchased? I've been looking to buy one myself and I have a few I've been considering.
