Been playing with my new multi-color 3d FDM printer, and made a couple new Trek accessories...
TNG Helm Console


I found a few existing 3d designs that had elements I liked, and I custom designed the rest. The chair and the console swivel. The lighting area is hollow and has a channel to run lighting. Mr. Data is on a Type S body with the new "space boot" legs, and is wearing the updated Mego TNG uniform.
TOS Transporter Console

This transporter console replaces the paper one I created 15 years ago. Again, this is a custom design I remixed together from some publicly available models. Transporter Chief Kyle is a head from a SWAT figure (I think he makes a passable replacement), and a jumpsuit I got from Theresa back in the day.
While I still need to dial in my printer settings (these weren't even printed at the highest resolution), I'm really happy with how both came out. The photos show all the layer lines and imperfections, but on the toy shelf, I don't really notice them. The multi-color print produces an end result that is very toyetic and fun.
