Almost there!! 
Just need the center, eye ball, and then the engravings.

I might make 2 eye bar versions then.
I just have a few things left to do, like make everything solid and join them together. The "bars" and "eye ball" will stay separate like before in case you want to print it yourself.
I was also able to get the "runes" engraved really deep into the model. They'll definitely show up nicely when blackwashed.

Some further progress on the Eye.
Painted & glued together. Mind, there's still a smoothing coat to come + antiquing, especially in the outer runes to make them really stand out.
And then, when I turn on the LED....
I do like how it also accentuates the inner rings! I thought of using a small LED but that's just not me - 3W blinder all the way! We're weaving the material around the actual wires to make it look like the woven leather in the set photos, crossing over behind the neck to go back down to a belt-pack with power, LED driver and switch.
Edit: Unfortunately I don't have enough time to try for the more complex version of the Eye - the deadline for the Oz Comic-Con competition is two weeks and there's no way I could get that modeled & printed in time even if I had the skill to do it!

The new Eye of Agamotto is finished!
I'm going to see if my printer can handle the detail. If it can't, I'll add it to Shapeways and print it that way.

Here is my finished tunic. Please excuse the belts, they are in progress.

I got my cape sewn together... well mostly. Sorry for the crappy photo quality, I dunno what the deal was. I still need to do trim and lining and attach the collar, but all the weird patchwork is done! I started this at 8pm on friday and finally went to sleep at 5 AM... My friend (who i was trying to get the costume done for her wedding) texted me at 8 am with an SOS, so I ended up going that whole day on 3 hours of sleep (AND I served the whole wedding dinner XD) Not my best decision, but hey. I'm that much closer!

If your printer can't handle it I'll bet mine can, given how the X piece turned out last time! :cool

I think it's because something weird was going on with the "dome" (inscription part) and the printer decided to make random triangles that weren't visible, which basically made a LOT of the detail solid. Which really sucks because it was printed at 100 microns and it took about 6 hours at 35% infill.
I've been trying to fix the problem for about 4 hours now. :/ I might have to remake the "dome".

Well, I'm kind of glad my print failed, because I forgot to add a few other details. I would have finished, molded, and cast an inaccurate piece again! :O
It is now, in my opinion, the closest thing we'll have to a screen used version. There is one bit that isn't completely accurate. I had to cut out small rectangles on the small "crescent" shape so the "Eye Bars" could fit properly.

Yes, that is looking so much better than our original models. I was going to redo mine as well, but with as gorgeous as yours is looking, I think I will skip it now. Great job!

By the way, I found this paracord and ordered it. The blue isn't quite as vibrant as I would like, but I think it works well for the arm pieces:

Looks amazing!
If you need a third-party test print done, just for safety's sake of course, I'm always willing to help! :angel

Last piece to the puzzle:
It can fit a 5-6mm cord.
I'll add the parts to Google Drive. The main piece is 24~ MB :eek
For those who want to order them, the files are up on Shapeways:

If you want to print them yourselves (for personal use), ask me, I'll send'em your way.
If you want to wait and order a fully functional one ( iffy on the seeing-through-dimensions part) you'll have to wait about 2 weeks. :'(

So, I had an idea. You know those "X"s that make the Ankh? Well, since everyone doesn't know how to screen print (and I really, REALLY don't want to make one just for this) I was thinking, maybe I could make a 3d printed stencil you can push ink or puff paint through. Each X "should" be .125" (1/8th") wide.
This is 2.2" wide by 8" long, by 1mm thick. I have no idea if my printer can make it. Considering it had problems with the Eye.
