So I wanted to make a thread to show off some of my custom work done with the help of 3D printers.
I already showed off some bits and pieces here and there in other threads. Figured it would be better to keep it all organized.
A lot of the work starts off like this before it can be printed. Once I realized the exact size of a mego head I was able to plug that in into a 3D printer to get the correct size. I had originally tried getting the heads out with lower quality printer while my "nicer" printer was out of commission. However, I had it repaired and it came out looking like this.
Next, I tried another design.
And I ended up with this:
Pretty excited with the results. I am not the best at painting but the quality is great. I am sure someone who is much more talented could do a spectacular job with a decent paint job. I made a mold of it and made a few resin heads. Shameless plug: ill start selling both heads at some point soon on EBay along with some others I am working on (Ant Man helmet and some Game of Thrones characters.)
Would love to get some feedback or comments.
