I recently finished modeling the communicator from the 2001 series ‘Enterprise’. I’ll likely be posting this model on cgtrader soon.
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.
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.

More pics later, but here are several Blade Runner 2049 prop replicas I’ve built. Except for the tablet and pen, which are built from the same parts used to make the originals (although, the smaller tablet never made it on screen), all these owe their origin to designers from the Replica Prop Forum who designed…
