Working on making a set of Resistance rank badges from the Force Awakens and the Last Jedi. Should be a fun build, going to paint and weather them like the screen used ones. Starting off by designing it in Fusion 360. 3D printed, first layer of primer on.

I decided to use one of my throwaway prints as a test to see if i could make a successful mask using a 3D printed overlay (orange print). It snaps over the surface of the badge and I airbrushed the blue on it with no tape. Can't believe it worked, this is going to be so much easier than masking! The ones used on screen are a lot dirtier than you would think, really makes it fun for weathering.

The final badge will be cast in resin and will be much smoother than this! Let me know what you guys think!

All 6 badge styles are now printed. Working on finishing and smoothing the prints now, then onto casting. Really looking forward to painting these
 
The Resistance rank badges are finally done! These are cast in resin and hand painted to match the weathering on the screen used ones. Couldn't be happier with how they turned out, much better than the prototype one I posted before.

The red is Army and the blue is Navy. These can be seen in The Force Awakens and The Last jedi on all of the various Resistance officers.
