I do see an issue with people entering a tonne of previously made designs, as it gives newer designers little chance to compete.

If I had created the comp (I wish…) it would have been the following criteria:

1. The model must be created for the comp (otherwise we’ve seen it all anyway - if you are into 3D printing chances are all of these are not new)

2. Only 1 entry per person.

3. Winner decided soley by 3DHubs and not how many friends you can get to come and upvote you.

Good to see they got 1 out of 3 right so far. Here’s hoping for the next comp.

One of my favourite Star wars characters is Count Dooku, especially the Clone Wars version, and I have been wanting to sculpt one for a while now, so here it goes. It was 3d sculpted using ZBrush and 3d printed on a Zortrax m200, then Hand painted using Vallejo paints!

The project was supposed to be a study after the original sculpt of Darren E. Marshall a challenge to see if I can make it look as close as possible to the original and a huge desire to have that sculpt in my office, I ended up learning so much from this project.

Make sure to check out my Blog for the entire project walkthrough

Hi, I finally printed my design for this competition, I did a little Ewok head to support my Wacom pen, you can also find a version without the hole so you can modify it the way you want.

Here’s the link to youmagine : https://www.youmagine.com/designs/ewok-head

Hi guy’s!

My entering for the competition is a designed by myself lightsaber. I wanted to do something different for this competition since it is my dream to one day work or participate in a star wars movie or project. The lightsaber consist of six printed parts and takes a total of four hours.

Design is my passion, with this idea in mind I’ve designed a lightsaber thats easy to print and very easy to assemble. So if you like it give me a thumbs up and the force will be forever in your favor!

Looks great!

Although… if your Zortrax is gathering dust I don’t think you need a new Ultimaker :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks!

Do you think the sole reason to enter a competition is to win? I’m here to learn, share my experience, meet new people, promote my blog, promote my hub and I can go on… and when I wrote that my “Zortrax was gathering a bit of dust” I was trying to prove a point, maybe I was to subtle (I’ll try better next time). I really hope you entered the contest and I really hope you win the Ultimaker this way you can stop worrying about people having too many 3d printers in the shop!

That looks awesome! Are you thinking about post-processing/painting it as well?

Lol it was just a joke. Who knows, you might have needed some more filament too :wink:

ill enter at some point, I was just trying to make something specifically for the competition rather than using an old model.

I created this 3D Printed BB-8 droid!

It is motorized and remote-controlled to move around and interact.

I’ve made the design in SketchUp, It’s printed half-size so it doesn’t take tons of filament. The robotic platform is Arduino-based so you can add programmable LEDs and sounds.

The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONnFEvNyB_g

Enjoy!

First my idea was too large and too little time to implement, so I said that the size dosn’t matters and I focus on utility. Too soon I have a ball and decided to make cufflinks for my shirt. I am a fan of Star Wars so of course the cufflinks will be the theme in StarWars. They have been printed with a layer 0.15 in ABS. Everyone knows that the biggest problem is just the smallest prints, so it was this time.

I hope that someone like them and surely someone will use them:)

Hey ! I am glad you like it :smiley:

I don’t really have time for that these days, but maybe after the competition.

My painting skills are not so good, so my model might look very ugly after.

Hello Simona,

I understand that the deadline on March 21st but is there a cut off time? If there is a cut off time, please let us know the time and time zone.

Thank you!

Wes

My friend and I decided to make the map to Luke Skywalker from “The Force Awakens.” Then we took it a dozen steps further.

To be clear, we didn’t print the map itself. We printed the flash-drive-shaped object that BB-8 carries around, but with space to fit a real flash drive within it. With this, we came to realize, “What good is a flash drive without a USB port?”

So then we printed a Star Wars themed USB port with over a dozen 3D printed PLA parts. The port is complete with a mechanical descending and lowering vertical port, plus a fully-functional mechanical iris door at the top. The Resistance can finally read USB drives.

Check it out:

Hi Simona,

Is there a specific cut off time on March 21st? You mentioned that the winners will be decided on March 21st so there must be a cut off time in order to give the Ultimaker / 3D Hubs team members enough time to go through all the submissions and decide on the winners.

+1 for NEW DESIGNS
