Building things real and imagined
Star Trek Strange New Worlds Phaser
There’s not much I can say about this model by SaxonProps/Limeybuilds but “Wow”. It’s a fantastic model, full stop. I’ve also built the model by 3dTechDesign, but I ...
Star Trek Strange New World Communicator
Also built from a SaxonProps/Limebuilds mode. This communicator is a pleasure to print and build. The moire pattern and buttons are laser-printed 2D elements. I’ll also show a 3DTechDesign Communicator later which is both more-simplified and also more parts, which sounds strange but… you’ll see. Also shown are: – A case I designed and built to...
Star Trek Strange New Worlds Phaser
There’s not much I can say about this model by SaxonProps/Limeybuilds but “Wow”. It’s a fantastic model, full stop. I’ve also built the model by 3dTechDesign, but I prefer SaxonProps by far. By the way, the paint is VHT SP403 Engine Metallic Titanium Silver Blue. I’ve now built about 5 of these and, apart from...
Star Trek Discovery Communicator
To go with my Disco phaser, I of course needed a Disco-era communicator. It’s interesting how this design incorporated some design language from both STIII as well as the Kelvin universe. Model by UniMatrixRed
Star Trek Discovery Phaser
I had previously built two Disco phasers: One that was too small and somewhat inaccurate, and other full-sized FDM printed and laboriously sanded version for my friend Christopher. Finally I got around to making a resin-oprinted version for myself at studio scale (which is, I should note, a very chonky boy). 3D model by ajethridge
Oscillation Overthruster
I have two friends named Jon. Both are Buckaroo Banzai fans. So I’ve built Oscillation Overthrusters for two Jons. Trust me, all the Jo(h)n Bigboote jokes have been made already. This is Jon R’s with stand. 3D model by Stephen Stand model by me.
Star Trek Enterprise Communicator
I recently finished modeling the communicator from the 2001 series ‘Enterprise’. I’ll likely be posting this model on cgtrader soon.
Ultraman 66 Beta Capsule
As a kid, Ultraman ran in the afternoons after school and I always wanted a Beta Capsule. And now I finally have one. 🙂 Designed and built in a afternoon. Model available on MyMiniFactory.
Samaritan Stand
I’ve neglected to post this one for some time, but finally put it up on Thingiverse. I know that I’ve given at least one person permission to sell it, so I’ve made the license just CC-Attribution. Sell away, Samaritan makers. It’s really pretty simple, after all, and you’ll need to provide some parts yourself to...
Venture Industries walking eye control backpack
I am a HUGE Venture Bros fan. And I’m also a giant nerd who carries around a customized hard-shell backpack. I started by adding the instrument handles/ears and then just put a bunch of decals on it from various things I liked. But once I got a vinyl cutter… all that changed. I designed and...
2001: A Space Odyssey suit control pad replica
This is a replica of the arm control unit on the spacesuits from 2001: A Space Odyssey. I modeled and printed the it in four pieces: the IBM button, the top and bottom rows of buttons, and the chassis. The two metallic buttons are covered in aluminum tape and then sanded for a brushed look....
