Darth Maul ready for printing
🕑 Added 2023-08-06 11:53:33 +0000 UTCFinally it's done :) And its being uploaded to the AUGUST 2023 link that is being sent to yuu this very momemnt :)
This project was a collaboration between me and a talented young artist David Eyberman, and we are very very very happy with how this one turned out.
David and I will continue to work on quite some other projects like this, so expect much more of these kinds of detailed models :)
The idea was to imagine Darth Maul in a training ground situation :) As you can see, the statue is made in super high detail - it even has skin details and cloth details :D The original mesh if exported in full quality would be about 1 GB in size, ofc that would crash all slicers, so i had to reduce the mesh quality a bit to bring those numbers down and make it usable which it now is.
I included both a fully combined body and "body sliced in half" :D get it ? :D . Well, in 4 parts :) Fully combined body is still a bit larger in file size (115MB) due to all the details, but it will now load in any slicer without problems.
____ Another important thing to keep in mind ( only if it happens for some slicers) : - due to all the "cloth details" , on the fully combined statue, your slicer might give you "errors" - in fact there are no errors, and the files are completely 3d printable without errors, so you can ignore slicer "warnings" I even repaired it in prusa slicer and meshmixer, and here and there an "error" message pops up, but not always, so in case it does , you can ignore it :) ___
_ Given the details it is better suited for resin printing but i'm sure you can get away with filament printing as well (altho resin printing is recommended ) :)
Best,
Marko
