Heya!
Just wanted to do a bit of an update on all current project I’m working on at the moment. Most projects are on hold as I’m a one man crew with limited free time and since I’m taking commissioned work, I don’t really have the time to work on everything. I’m usually working on 2 projects at once: Commission stuff first and then personal stuff if I have some time in the week ends. I won’t list things I wanna make, just projects I have actually started. Some of them will be finished, some of them might not due to a lack of time. Let’s do a round up!
N7 Crusader from Mass Effect (Commission)
State of the project: 3D model is 100% done. It is sliced up and ready to be 3D printed!
Features: None, just a painted prop.
N7 Valkyrie from Mass Effect (Personal Project)
State of the project: 3D model is almost done. I need to slice it up intelligently for 3D Printing.
Features: None, just a painted prop. Might add LEDs if it’s not too much trouble.
M7 Caseless SMG from Halo:3 & Halo:3 ODST (Commission for family/friends)
State of the project: Prototype is ok but 3D model needs some tweaking.
Features: Retractable butt and front handle, Removable clip, sight and silencer for the ODST version.
Custom Light Saber (Personal Project)
Data Knife from Titanfall 2 (Personal Project)
State of the project: I already made a regular Data Knife a while ago but with no electronics whatsoever. I’m still figuring things out as space availability is rather thin.
Features: LEDs animations when trigger is pulled. A small video is available here
R201 Carabine from Titanfall 2 (Personal Project)
State of the project: Just started the 3D model and as usual, Titanfall 2 props are highly detailed and require A LOT OF TIME.
Features: Removable mags. Maybe more stuff as I go along.
L-STAR from Titanfall 2 (Personal Project)
State of the project: 3D model is almost done. I need to slice it up a bit and optimize everything for 3d printing without compromising ease of assembly and electronics accessibility. I got the electronics almost sorted out but since I learned new tricks with the lightsaber project, I might go back and change a few things
Features: Trigger responsive rotating parts. LEDs.
Here a small timelapse of my first 3D modeling sessions:
And here’s another small video from my Twitter account of the electronics that will go inside it
SE-44C Blaster from Star Wars (Personal Project)
State of the project: 3D Model still in the making.
Features: TBD
That’s all folks!
I actually have some other stuff but I wanted to focus on the more defined projects. I’m also learning Zbrush to be able to tackle more organic designs like this Harry Potter Elder Wand I made a few month ago. Perfect to start practicing Zbrush!
