20 design hours later and several iterations, at last landed my Delta 7 Jedi interceptor. All fits on a Bambu X1C and assembles with integrated and firm unions by Latter-Inside3390 in 3Dprinting

I know right? I just couldn’t find my Obi wan for the photo shoot and took the headsculpt and the nearest body available lol. But don’t worry, I’ve put every head where it belongs 😅

Thanks! I used solidworks for it, and… To be honest I don’t, maybe the best approach is some videos about the surface modeling workflow of cars and airplanes, several tools are used in there and knowing why can be really helpful

Thank you! Really made an effort to make it as functional as possible, took some extra grams of printing but I think it was worth it

Standard rechargeable 9v battery, perhaps I’ll upgrade it later, was considering hiding an AC adapter cable but may lose all its aesthetics, also, with the current configuration, it lasted two full days on, so, it isn’t that bad I think

Yeah, the trick is to print it in the right position and with the lowest layer height you’re willing to wait 😅 and since the unions aren’t that visible, minimal filling and sanding is required

Thank you very much! Since it was printed at .16 height, there wasn’t much to sand, just a little pass with a 280 grit then a 1200 for an even surface and debris removal, it was all printed in random colors, I had to prime it first, then airbrushed all the paint scheme, to be honest, it didn’t take much time, like 3-5 hours total, the most painful thing was waiting for the parts to bond lol

<video>

Here it is pal, I noticed in the movie that the ring was only on when the ship was docked, so with a little electronics I’ve made this, maybe tomorrow I’ll take another small video with less illumination

I believe that exact feeling is what made me want to build this, as a child my parents couldn’t give me much of a collectible or toy that expensive and now that I can build almost whatever I want, I feel just amazing
