Took a few days break from my star wars projects to work in a small batch of 80's action flicks. I believe you'll recognize this one's:

This is my first 3d printed figure, the chubby droid Clink (from bad batch). It was painted based on the show with some minor changes:

That turned out awesome! Did you design the droid for printing? It looks great. Either way, I really like the paint job.

Thanks! I totakky want to get a printer, but I need to study the process to fully understand it, and save a bit to buy a cool one. They are expensive here in Brazil.

That Snake is super solid. Good work!

Thanks! I still have some Russel's related stuff to make in the future.

Thanks! There still plenty of space to paint 3d stuff better. This one was pretty OK, but I could have prepared the base better and this would also reflect on the paint and final result.

Some folks sure make it seem easy, but I know its a lot more involved (especially the design software), but I figure once a person gets it down your days of relying on toy companies are pretty much over. That would have to feel freaking awesome.

I totally agree. Being able to make whatever we want would be a nice complement to the ongoing collection.

Great work on the droid
