Hunter Seeker from dune 2021 modelling and build log

[soswow]

There was another quick model I wanted to recreate (and make) from the Dune movie. It's a Hunter Seeker.
This is the shot from the movie:

The design is done by Peter Popken. See it here.

My model:

Again. Will attempt to 3D print it and report back. And share files when they are ready for printing.

Alright. All supported and print is underway. See how it goes in 7 hours.

That and the Romulan spy drone from Enterprise go with one another

Print kinda failed (right two). I've modified the model - made the shell thicker, filled inside (in between shells and spheres). Also at 100% (4cm in length), it's still too small. Especially needles are too small to print. So, I've printed one (second left) at 100% with idea of adding non-printed needles and one at 150% (left) with needles (on the picture). Will finish prepping them (putty some defects left from support), paint somewhat, glue needles and share the result.

I'm not a print expert myself, but may I ask what sort of printer did you use?

Thank you for sharing... I will give it a try on my poor Anycubic Photon Mono.
