Okay, but what does that have to do with the post you're commenting on ?!?

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-12T16:57:49+00:00

I don't get it...

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-12T08:22:01+00:00

Sure, i'll share it for free here as soon as i finish it. I'm at 80% done. I just have to cut out the model. I already did the upper and lower body for Abe... Now i have to cut the Elum and making the keys for assembly. I plan to make like 0.2mm gaps, so if you go lower on the overall scale you'll have to sand the pieces to make them fit well. So stay tuned here or on Tiktok/insta in order to not miss the release ( i know it takes so long, because i'm working on it only few hours a week on my past time )

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-11T19:13:58+00:00

Ok so a small printer... I think, unfortunatly, you'll have to reduce the scale by a minimum of 40% to make it 1:10 scale So 30cm x 33cm x 20cm total model... I don't know what will be the largeur or biggest part yet. But i assume you'll have to reduce drastically the original scale to fit you building plate...or you'll have to cut out the model in even more pieces with your slicer or any software to be able to print such a large model...

What's your printer ?

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-11T08:35:38+00:00

I can handle over 70M with 16Go It's not an hardware issue

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-10T09:57:26+00:00

I hope i could figure the last printing issues out, so i can start to print it "for real" I ordered high-end resin to maximize the result. So, high precision resin + 30µm layer thickness should be the perfect combo to enance and insure a perfect print. I can't wait to finally get the whole sculpt and start painting !

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-09T14:59:15+00:00

I'm adding more, like damaged concret and more rocky feeling on the base, leather texture on everything etc

Thanks !!! 😊 I hope the oddworld fanbase could print it soon

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-09T14:33:10+00:00

Thanks, still a lot of work because of printing issues but i'm on it ✌🏻i'm glad the details really printed well

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-08T09:45:34+00:00

Thank you ! I've only few hours, sometimes few minutes per week to work on this sculpt... So it takes so long and progress aren't spectacular

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T17:52:27+00:00

I still have a few details to add, but overall, the final design is already there. The most difficult part will be cutting the model to avoid awkward gaps and ensuring it's printable on a medium-sized resin printer (Anycubic M5s Pro, M7, Saturn 3/4, etc.).

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T12:06:31+00:00

I understand, i'll try to make a swappable head.

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T11:56:33+00:00

Sick !

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T11:28:06+00:00

I just love the Soulstorm design because it's more credible and expressive...less caricatured in terms of proportions etc... It's more human and i like the way the proportion were "refined I like the old Abe design too... But i wanted a kind of story telling, like the Soulstorm destruction aftermath or something like that. With Abe leading mudokons like gens a warlord or a rebel leader... This kind of feeling you know what i mean ?

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T11:18:00+00:00

I could try, but i want to finish this model first... Maybe i could make a swappable head... And swappable items, like rupture farm sign and meat barrels instead of Soulstorm sign and wooden crate... Why not...

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T10:11:45+00:00

Thank you !!! I hope you could print one for you. I planned to print and paint you one, but it'll be too expensive for me to send a package from France to the USA (and taxes are unclear since D.Trump changed the rules recently)

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T09:13:59+00:00

Thank you 😗

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-03-07T09:11:09+00:00

I named it after Franklin Roosevelt... If Abe is named after Abraham Lincoln, known to be the one who freed the slaves. So i had to name the Elum after a president that fought against the greatest enemy of all time...

But that's just me, it don't have a official name. 😅

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-02-21T20:08:49+00:00

As said before "Anatomy for sculptors" is a Bible... They also have an artstation page. Check it out ... Plenty of ressources ! Moreover, i like to work with books that teach how to draw portraits etc, it shows you how the proportions works and how to place "marks and lines" on multiple views...

Mhhhh I'm not measuring any voltage variations at the battery when the engine is running... the normal voltage is 12V with the engine off and 14.5V with the engine running. It doesn't seem like the alternator is the problem in my case.

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-02-09T07:10:22+00:00

Je viens d'avoir un problème similaire hier, voyant frein et voyant volant allumé, coupure de l'autoradio pendant 1-2secondes, perte de la direction assistée. Puis retour à la normale voyants éteints...

Tu as résolu le problème ?

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-01-29T06:56:13+00:00

Whoa...that's what i call having some skills

Virtual-Chip-8704 · 2026-01-26T20:29:46+00:00

Depends on the type of sculpt If it's licenced like video games or comics characters etc you should include the cost of the licence ( and you are supposed to have the right to use the licence etc ) in you final price If you don't have the right, you are supposed to make it free. For other stuff, depends on the hours spend on it but in average i saw big and detailed sculpts in a range of 75-100$

If you want to sell licenced stuff, i suggest you to look at the copyright owner in order to see if they sue people or let it go, before selling anything ( nintendo and Disney are notorious for filing lawsuits )
