You clearly are the on who has reading problems when I already stated that clearly. And if you knew how to read you would understand I was talking about submissions of old entires and not new ones. Also the not so active moderator, Simona also stated, “They (the votes) will be taken in account as a mention of honour from the community.” Thus causing all these unwarranted downvotes.
When you try to ridicule someone that they can’t read, make sure your reading comprehension is there for yourself first.
This is the type of new works I hoped to see from the beginning. If only the rules were more clear and invited NEW DESIGNS rather than allow people to repost oldies, we would have gotten a lot more designs like this.
Yes. I noticed that before if you look up top right when Simona told us to ask if there was any questions and I knew immediately a time deadline was left out and tried to ask for everyone but it was never answered. Looks like a few others had asked later in the contest too without avail. The contest was quite a disaster in the way it was handled. Hope 3DHubs learn something from this experience. I wish we could have seen your entry. =(
I thought the deadline was today at 23:59. Silly me.
Anyways I have been working on a sculpted Vader pencil holder(+misc holder) for the contest. The prop can also go on the tip of the car hood or on the interior as awesome decor haha. I skipped class for it but it seems I might not be able to enter.
I wanted the model to be easily printable and printer friendly so no Critical layers(tested on the Retina Software) and it is sub 100k polys. It was tough and alot of corrections made but I kept the printer friendly-ness in mind constantly while sculpting while keeping important details and pose. Most printers are able to print this. It is meant to be printed upright for FDM printers. This has been heavily sculpted and I wanted a detailed companion close to Yoda. If the contest ended at the end of the month it would have allowed for me to finish sculpting Obi-Wan and Anakin. There are two versions. One is with the cape and the other without if you want to save material for checking calibration detail. Enjoy for the moment! Vader.stl 1 (5.04 MB) VaderwoCape-ByDecadia.stl 1 (3.47 MB)
Not your fault. They never properly stated a time deadline nor time zone. This is a high quality model. Great job. Did you try printing this yet? Can this be printed properly without support? Left arm may be trouble?
Thanks, I did spend lots of hours on this model to bring the quality up enough for the Yoda companion.
I aim to have others print this happily without supports.
I’m having it printed without supports myself and so far so good. I posed the left arm just at the right angle to have 0 critical layers but if other people have issues I can raise it a bit more. I dont currently have a FDM printer with me so I’ll be testing it out at school. Thanks for the comment!
