List updated and a few PMs sent!

After a couple of weeks of chipping away at them, I have a small initial run of five finished Stardust data tapes. One is accounted for already, leaving four in this initial run. I’m opening the interest list with the following holds as follows, and on Wednesday 7/26/23 I’ll “reset” the list to...

Behold, mark 2! Really love the way this turned out. I had access to a lot more tools / knowledge this time around and think the build quality this time around is significantly better than the last time I took a crack at these. That said, assembly on this one took much longer than expected...

Sooooo close :))) Had some misalignment issues on the laser cutter but it’s only (slightly) noticeable in a couple areas. I love the new blue acrylic designs, they’re extended from the last version, and include a few additional details. The clears are almost identical, and even tried a...

Hi all! Very brief update - I've been traveling a bunch and haven't been able to do much other than prep some of the smaller pieces (metal rods, acrylics, new caps for the clear rods). My current setup makes it incredibly tough to prime and paint the bodies black at scale, so I'll give it some...

First prototype done using scrap acrylics! Looks great, I have to tweak a few lines here and there but it's looking good. All the other bits have come in the mail, just haven't had enough time to set up a jig to cut the clear acrylic tubes and metal rods. Still playing around with print...

Hello! Still working on the first finished full-scale version for this one. I have one chassis assembled and ready for primer, just have to find some time (and a warm day) to prime it. I just ordered some silver on black, frosted clear, and blue on white acrylic that should (fingers crossed) do...

Aaaaand we have acrylics! Testing out a few of the pieces on scrap until I get the measurements right. Ended up redoing all the engravings and outer edges to match the CAD file, but also to better match a few additional reference images I was able to get this time around. The back plate in the...

Done printing, it looks great! I didn't expect it to fit as well as it did to be honest, and printed all parts using the Form 2 build volume, so this project is in theory feasible just on that size printer. I'd have to deal with the seam, but in theory most of the seam on the front of the prop...

V1 ready to go! Got the back side all done, and added some features to the front side that should help avoid some headaches I had making the finished versions in the first run a couple of years ago. Printed a tiny 1/6 scale version last night that turned out great, but lacked detail for obvious...

Progress! Have gone back and forth between the original run and casting and some additional reference material that I found. Toying with the idea of making a fully printable version in addition to one that accepts the laser cut acrylic but might explore that later. Planning on putting some...

Creating a new thread since I think the old progress one was deleted in the lost land of 2020. I made this one in 2020 using Birdie's design and master chassis, but since the first run I haven't been able to work on much. However, I’ve recently been able to access some new tools and been...

Hello! I've been eyeing this thread for a while and finally got around to mine. Printed on the Anycubic Photon Mono X and finished in a couple different lacquers. Thanks to ChickenHaunt for the files!

I know! Only thing holding me back is I'm worried the head will droop too much if I try modifying it, not as worried about the arms and legs. I'd pay good money for the files if anyone attempts it though. The most doable seems replacing the body with the 20$ Child but still hesitant to try it.
