Little rusty - super crunch time @ work. Today’s lunch crunch was only 40 mins. I was commissioned to do this piece… hah no I wasn’t.

Haha! Oh god. When I saw this thumbnail in the main forum I was thinking, ā€œWTF is that Honey Boo Boo?ā€

Yes… yes it was.

that’s awesome! would’ve liked to see her filthy teeth but it still great:)

LoL thanks guys - she has teeth? :o

Hey ZBC! Just got my new Replicator 2 and thought I would share my first test print with you all. I’ve got a bust printing on high-quality as we speak and can’t wait to show you what this machine is capable of! Take care!

Great good to see work here done on this machine… looking forward to more… Mine will be on my desk in January 2013…

I’m wondering about the cost effectiveness of this printer. ie: At approx. 20.00/lb, how far will a 1lb spool of PLA filament go? The approx. 6x6x11 build volume is nice and the printer itself really isn’t that expensive at $2,200.00

It’s pretty decent for cost effectiveness @ roughly $0.46 per Ounce of PLA. I’ve tested a 3 inch bust with support material and it weighed in around 2.5 ounces - so $1.15 for the print excluding the cost of electricity (which is really low). So I could make around 14 3-inch busts with 1 spool of PLA material - not bad!

I’m really expecting to go through this whole spool of 1KG PLA material just testing out the various settings etc and tweaking it - so I would add that into your cost and order an extra spool as it’s quite a bit of tuning when printing your own models.

Hi K-o-s!

Really like your models here and I’m really excited about the printer:) I hope you will share the finished bust when printed. I have been looking att a 3D printer for a long time now. Really interested in seeing how detailed the print kan get with this machine! can’t wait to see how it goes!:slight_smile:

Peace

Hey ZBC,

I would like to share my first character bust print from my Replicator 2. I am pretty happy with the results! It stands 3.5" tall and took 6 hours to print on the default high quality settings. I look forward to going into the settings and tweaking it further for an even better result - for now epoxy touch up’s should do just fine!

NINJA!!!, Yolandi next? Just saw Die Antwoord this month!

Nice, I would love to see them live. As for Yolandi, perhaps in the future. Right now, I am wanting to refine this bust and take it to a final stage with base. So it might be a while before you see Vi$$er :confused:

First crunch of 2013, took 2 separate lunch hours for this guy. Based off the ā€œlower guardā€ from Dishonored.

I’ve been watching your Vimeo reels.
Quite incredible.

Have you done any vids/demos on the modeling process from start to finish on one of your stylized clean/hard surface characters?
(are they started in ZBrush?)

thanks

Thanks Nate, most of my models are roughed out in Zbrush so I can get an overall feel for the forms etc. I then retop them either in Maya or Topogun. I haven’t done any videos really as I know there are a few out there by far more advanced artists - I recommend checking out the video by The Gnomon Workshop - Stylized Character Modeling for Production with Alessandro Baldasseroni.

I’ll take a look.
thanks

Decided to just play around with today’s lunchtime sketch and give it an additional two hours. Just did whatever was on my mind.

I also livestreamed the process here: http://livestre.am/4iAuy
