In this video I print, finish and paint a 1/6 scale probe droid model designed by Build It And They Will Come (see their site below). I printed this on my Creality CR-10. See below for coupons and affiliate links for all of the CR-10 models.

I would have been so tempted to put Luke’s lightsaber in the snow as an Easter egg.

One of my favorite droids. Empire tech is my favorite from the Original Trilogy.

That's awesome looking. The only thing I would do differently is maybe use a clear plastic support rod maybe white.

@jasonbaker541 6 лет назад

Wow, you found rocks walking around outside? I think you missed a viral video on that one! LOL JK. The print looks amazing and I am with you on the sanding. But honestly some layer lines don't look incredibly out of place on a metal robot. Smooth and shiny has is place but for a beat up old probe droid, imperfections just add character.

@Semtex199 6 лет назад

very nice :) you can try also with a transparent acrylic tube to make it look like its floating in the air

@dimefromm2451 6 лет назад

You should make entire Star Wars scenes, like Jabba the Hutt with his guards and Han Solo! That would be awesome!

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

That would indeed be awesome! I have done similar things with custom painted action figures in the past. The only issue is getting the models, since there aren't any models for a lot of those things (or at least good models that would work in a diorama).

@Gamingoodz 6 лет назад

At 4:14 either you had the drive in reverse, its a cool optical illusion, or I'm blind. Totally looked like the drill is spinning counter clockwise. Awesome model and print, Just got a CR-10s and I got get it dialed in here as my prints don't look that good yet.

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

Heh, that might explain why I had trouble getting through. I was more focused on filming than drilling.

@vipermark7 3 года назад

What a brilliant print! If I might say, I’d have done all the sanding before putting it together. You also could have added some lighting. It’s still amazing. Do you mind me asking what scale it works out as for the final print?

@MightyJabbasCollection 3 года назад

Yeah I think I may have mentioned that I could've done that a bit differently. I don't actually know what the scale is, but I think it could probably pass for 1/6

@vipermark7 3 года назад

Mighty Jabba's Collection Yeah. Sorry if that came across as a dig. I didn’t mean it that way at all. I’m in awe of 3D printing. I scratchbuild models by hand, but 3D printing looks to be so versatile. I was thinking it was looking close to 1/6. I’m doing the prep work right now for a 1/6 snowspeeder. It’s going to be a monster in 1/6! I mocked it up in cardboard first to make sure I have the sizes right and it’s huge!(Despite being one of the smallest SW craft!)

@MightyJabbasCollection 3 года назад

A 1/6 scale snowspeeder would be epic.

that metal effect looks great what kind of paint did you use? I tried recently to do that but failed to get the right look.

@mythicalrex1 3 года назад

he didnt paint the lenses with a red undertone but once again it would be hard to do by hand i think

@nickanderson8305 6 лет назад

Also, if you use 2 part epoxy vice a glass coat you will get a much nicer more realistic glass/glossy look I use it regularly for glass or eyeballs

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

What brand do you use?

@nickanderson8305 6 лет назад

I use adhaero 5 min epoxy. But any epoxy should do the same as epoxy resins dry clear. I use the 5 minute syringe epoxy because I don't need alot and you can get it at any hardware store for around $10

@peerlessanaconda2337 5 лет назад

That looks great! But i doubt you would remember what filament you used to print this?

@Bobster986 6 лет назад

Why do you use honeycomb infill vs linier? It takes longer and most models don't need that extra strength. Thanks!

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

Oh, no particular reason here. It may have just been selected previously in my slicer, but I do kind of like the way it looks :)

@Bobster986 6 лет назад

Aaah! ...me too. LOL

@DMonZ1988 6 лет назад

turned out lovely! the snow on the base is very nicely done! if i subscribe to build it and they will come, do we get the back catalog too?

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

At the moment anyway, the way it works is that each month subscribers get one main model and one bonus model (often a multi-part model that will span several months, like the Probe Droid). You also get access to the "Subscriber's Cargo Hold" where you can buy previous models for around the price previous subscribers paid (usually around 9.99 pounds). Also, they don't want people just coming in and buying a few models, canceling, and then coming back later when something else they want is added, so once you quit you can't rejoin. If you're used to free models, this can seem a little expensive, but compared to most artists who are selling their models a la cart, it's actually pretty cheap. As I said, I don't work for them or anything, so if you have any questions you can try asking them on Facebook or their website.

@DMonZ1988 6 лет назад

Mighty Jabba's Collection ok, thank you. I imagined something like that when I asked. Makes sense, and it's totally reasonable, but I'm not sure it's for me. There's so much free stuff out there, I think I'd prefer to donate he and there if I really love something, and in general I feel like I should learn to model myself, haha. Fantastic print and project though, so I'm glad they're getting some support for their trouble. The whole star warsiness of their collection does make it very tempting.

@vernonwilmervideo 3 года назад

Can you recommend a filler primer for model work? All I see on line is automotive.

@MightyJabbasCollection 3 года назад

I just use the Rustoleum brand stuff and it has worked well. I’m not sure there is any made specifically for models

Are all past models available when I sign up for their subscription or if I don't do it now I won't get to download this droid in the future?

OhFishyFish Members can purchase previous models if they want to

@OhFishyFish 6 лет назад

Thanks, any idea on pricing? It might be worth signing up even just for this model if previous models are close to the monthly fee.

@MightyJabbasCollection 6 лет назад

Pricing varies, although it’s not too bad. You might try asking around the Facebook group to get a better idea

@nathanpartridge3565 4 года назад

What costs on printing something like this?

@MightyJabbasCollection 4 года назад

It depends on the cost of your filament of course but I would say less than $10

@patprop74 3 года назад

You might want to revisit this now that you have a resin printer lol

@MightyJabbasCollection 3 года назад

Well I think I’d probably still do it more or less the same way, because my resin printer is too small for something like this without cutting it up into a lot of pieces.

@patprop74 3 года назад

@@MightyJabbasCollection Totally understandable Which I was thinking you would do, print them in individual parts and glue them together with a little bit of resin and a UV flashlight, I'm sure the Paint filler helped, however, it wouldn't compare with the detail the resin printer can do.

@vadoraid2517 3 года назад

Cool, very cool. But I found my droid for $20. Is it worth the money & time ?. I enjoy making things. But do u feel it’s worth it? Amanoman figure, u printed, was neat.! And he’s expensive. But u have to have a programmed model. Then buy the download, right??? Nice thanks

@MightyJabbasCollection 3 года назад

If you enjoy the process I think it’s worth it. Your $20 droid figure is a lot smaller than this one for what it’s worth. But it is quite a bit of work

@SouthShoreSabers 5 лет назад

I'm usually not a complainer... but why does the 'build it' group have a limited number of member slots... that just gives it a sour 'elitest' group feel. Thats not a dig at you but rather those who are running it. If I am happy to pay the $50 + $10 monthly... why not just let me?

@MightyJabbasCollection 5 лет назад

I don't really know -- that is a change they made later on and I'm not familiar with the details. I do know that they are concerned about people reselling/sharing the models and have been pretty proactive about managing who they let in (to the point of being a bit paranoid about it TBH), but I don't know if that is a separate issue.

@SouthShoreSabers 5 лет назад

@@MightyJabbasCollection I get that. Obviously none of the frustration is aimed at you - the bot you did is awesome. Just as a star wars fan the thingiverse files only go so far. It makes sense but is also disappointing.
