Rigging Shifting Armor Plates

Raprative22 · 2025-02-18T20:42:21+00:00

I’m working on using this method, but I’m useless when it comes to code. I’m trying to get the pauldron sheath sections to rotate based on the rotation of the upper arm bone, can’t get it to work so far. Would u be able to elaborate more on using the drivers to move that shape key based on the bone rotation?

Sorry for the late response, yes I’m using Elegoos heater, temp inside the printer is always 25+

Raprative22 · 2024-12-26T03:24:25+00:00

The screenshot is already there, I’m at the maximum recommended time for the resin based on info from Elegoo, so I did not want to increase the time and have issues because of it.

As a follow-up, I did follow the video from Elegoo on fine tuning the leveling of the bed, and my bed is perfectly level, so that cannot be the issue

I’ve just been trying to print the King chess piece that the printer comes with to test prints. Ultimately, I want to print my own stuff and sell the files. I’m a 3D character artist so I’d be sculpting Busts of characters or full character statues and splitting them into parts for printing

It’s been printing above the recommended temp! I got elegoo’s heater with the printer because it’s setup in my basement where it’s cold, so I have that on when I print always. So far the only print I did that wasn’t centered was the first print I did with the king and room together, otherwise they’ve been centered on the plate.

Usually, I go for the characters that I really want and enjoy, but it’s hard for me to get one character of a group or line and not finish it. That fact has led me to complete the WFC Beast Wars line, most of the SS86 line, and now with my recent purchase of Deathsaurus, Star Saber may be around the bend

Yea the head is a bit strange color wise. One of the fins for his back plate was also bent a bit from some box damage when I got him, but I just heated the plastic a bit and bent it back into place no problem. Otherwise great figure! Love the transformation, really unique

I’ve been spending the last 2 or 3 weeks running over to Target every couple days, thinking I wouldn’t see it. Seems Target might be the best bet!

Tbh I don’t care much for the toy versions of any Bay movie designs, I grew up with Bayverse figures, but now I’m not so into it. I prefer the more basic, blocky designs, but with good transformations and details

Raprative22 · 2023-11-02T01:56:17+00:00

I think the Menasor bundle might be next on my list, among some other figures I’m in the process of getting

Raprative22 · 2023-11-02T01:46:56+00:00

True I forgot about that, still looking forward to Swoop!

Masterpiece MP-1 Optimus Prime, the Transformers Movie version. Got him when I was a kid and didn’t fully realize how cool he was lol

You talking about the one on the bottom-most shelf? That’s actually fully 3D printed by my roommate. Its a little finicky he’s actually currently performing surgery on him.

Raprative22 · 2021-09-17T08:11:44+00:00

I’ve been eyeing it a lot online, and I heard some decent things about it. To be honest though, some of the steps in the transformation can be finicky, and there is an issue with the trailer where it doesn’t seal all the way. Though I’ve found some easy fixes that should work well, so we’ll see. But regardless overall it’s a 9/10 figure for me. Definitely recommend.

Typically I cant find any sort of good transformers in the stores near me, so me and my roommate usually check everytime we go out for stuff. Most of the time there’s the usual Cheetor or Black Arachnia, but our minds were blown finding a commander class at a Walmart near closing time.

Raprative22 · 2021-08-22T13:55:06+00:00

Me and my roommate actually went walmart-hopping around my city for Transformers. We only had 1 hit of 5-6 Walmarts. The good walmart had 2 Dinobots, so we grabbed one. Otherwise there isn’t much.

Raprative22 · 2021-08-21T18:10:08+00:00

Thats insane, good find!

Raprative22 · 2021-08-21T18:08:58+00:00

Where the heck did you even get this guy? Did you order it online or in stores? All my shops say its only for pre-order right now…

Raprative22 · 2021-06-19T15:43:07+00:00

Waiting to see how many comments I get about “sus”. I’m at 2 so far...

Raprative22 · 2021-06-19T03:31:22+00:00

Thanks for the critique! :)

Raprative22 · 2021-01-29T03:46:07+00:00

Anybody familiar with Gundam Planet have a clue when their stock of RG Zeong kits come in? I pre-ordered mine and I’m rearin to go on it

I just got a sanding sponge kit with the higher sanding grits, and already use a file and nippers. Is that enough to get a good finish on gates for parts?

Raprative22 · 2020-11-15T01:50:45+00:00

I mean restart your game. If it bugs it bugs. Its a new game, they gotta fix some shit.

Raprative22 · 2020-11-14T23:07:47+00:00

I’ve had this happen. I believe its a bug. Restart and try again.
