So after years of yearning for a 3D Printer ( of above average quality ) I finally caved in and got myself a Formlabs Form 2...

With none of my own Models being suitable for a quick first test/learning experience I decided to look elsewhere and here we are:

The humble Beginnings of a RVN-4X

If everything works out like planned he'll have all the necessary articulation to be posed in a bunch of poses.
Posted Image
Size when finished and in standing pose will be 20cm not including the antennas.

Getting the Mesh ready for 3D Printing though... What a major pain in the ***...
Can't recall to have ever been as offended like when I was looking at this one - Damn PGI...

Will update it as the parts come out of the printer...
Arms, Hip & Armor Plates will arrive next.
Legs sometime tomorrow - Probably.

Gotta come up with a nice Camopattern :°

P.S. Thanks to Heffay for his Mech Exporting Tutorials.

All that is left are the legs.

If only the support structures wouldn't take up so much additional space :(

Small Update:

Turned out really well... Bunch of things I'd do different when doing another Model but hey... It was the first one =)
Posted Image
Waiting for the 12V Power Supply to arrive so I can finish baking the Model in a custom UV Oven to further harden the Resin.

Gonna have to get myself some bendable but fairly stiff wires in order to recreate the roll cage on the back.
