Yeah, I just noticed the real scope on that one. Damn scope costs twice as much as the rest of the kit I bet! So cool.
What printer did u use to print this if you don’t mind me asking? MJF?View attachment 1534792
Gorgeous, especially the SE-14! I was excited when they were in R1, but it’s lame that they’re so ubiquitous now. Is that a Sean Morgan kit? What's the scoop with the rectangular marks on the right side of the SE-14, do those show up in some pics of the original?
The buttons look good on the Merr Sonn, nearly impossible to find real ones (my personal quest lol). Plus the damn DIN plug, which you have also got correct (of course!)
The blasters look fantastic!!Small update...
Had a bit of time to spend today and decided to tweak some blasters.
First is my interpretation of the MS Power 5, that I added 3D prints of the impossible to find vintage RS pushbuttons to. In addition to that, I modified the original Transcriptor knobs on the blasters left side to look more like what was used on the actual prop.

Next in line was my idealized SE14 Stormtrooper blaster.
I chose NOT to paint it in that boring satin black, but to give it a more realistic paintjob.
Also added the wires and the RS button to the magwell.

Will see what smaller tasks I can get done in the near future.
Thx for looking!
These are resin printed Field Mashall knobs, based on measurements taken from an actual vintage RS button
The texture is a result of the painting process, the prints itself are smooth
I am sure…had a special agreement with Chris, so mine are resinThanks Obi! Why the added texture.. aren’t the buttons smooth?
Also are you sure it’s not nylon? FM unless he’s changed his process uses SLS shapeways prints.
Black plastic with colored semi-transparent covers (since they were meant to be illuminated).Was it originally white or black in color?
You found them????? WOW…details pleaseCheck ‘em, my Crown Jewels! I wish I could get more, didn’t get enough for my own builds. I’ll probably work up an accurate 3d model one of these days, though Chris seems to have the printed replica thing covered.
Don’t touch these. Actually, don’t even look at them.
Thanks for your opinion my friend...hey Markus I would probably restore it. If it's a carefull restauration intending to give it back its full glory with modern eletric components, I wouldn't see the harm. Now that is just a personnal point of view and you'll probably get 50% people saying that and the other half being against doing anything to that vintage lamp. It all comes down to what you prefer in the end I think
