Re-Master: 1/100 Matsumoto 14 [Robot Jox] Scratch Build - Soon in 3D!

[armamentfactory]

I think that 5 feet would do justice to your incredible detailed work

Although at 5 feet, the details would be on another level of inaccurate. (Maybe I should've modeled it full-size from the start.)

 

[armamentfactory]

Got started on a rudimentary pilot figure. I want to give it enough detail to look like a Jox pilot, but simple enough for to print.

 

[armamentfactory]

I think this is more than enough detail for a 16mm tall figure.

 

[Analyzer]

Oh yeah!

 

[armamentfactory]

Possibly an unnecessary feature, but I was already reworking this section anyway.

 

[armamentfactory]

The "generic" pilot figure might have a potential bonus feature...

Do you have any plans to release this as a kit or sell the STL files? I'd be thrilled either way!

There aren't any plans to release the files at the moment, and I still need to find out what it takes to build & make a kit out of it.
But hopefully one, if not both of these options will be available eventually.

 

[armamentfactory]

Welp... the rabbit hole goes deep... It was inevitable.

Just a quick preview for now, it'll probably need a thread of its own.

 

[armamentfactory]

I think this is the last missing part. The rest is just parts separation & minor adjustments at this point (I hope).

 

[armamentfactory]

I think the sizes are pretty close.

And practically invisible details.

 

[armamentfactory]

Splitting up segments to make them easier to print & assemble. It's finally getting very close to the test print stage!

^^
Cannot wait to see the first printed parts

 

[armamentfactory]

These need some minor adjustments, but I think they're working as intended.

Probably the least fun 30 parts to print and assemble (out of 300).

 

[joberg]

Working for me

 

[armamentfactory]

Slow & steady printing up to 300+ parts.

 

[armamentfactory]

I think my printer settings need some tweaking, but the parts are coming together.

 

[joberg]

This is going to be Epic

 

[armamentfactory]

This is going to be Epic

Cue the theme music! (and again when the physical model is complete!)

 

[Jediguy]

Wow this is just the most beautiful thing ever. I remember watching this as a kid on vhs. Blew my mind
