Random prints!

[CM17X]

Hey there! I want to show you some prints that i have (My brother, the former owner of the Ender 3 i have now, print almost all of them for me), there is just one with an actual pourpose, hope you like them:

First one is a "Piggy bank", really cool one, i just love it: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/home/tirelire-gorille





The second one is a lovely goose, inspired by "Untitled goose game": https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3906053



I really dig puzzles, so the last too are some "simple" puzzles (The skull with the brain is kinda challenging)

I'll print more as long as i keep printing. I hope to be able to design something cool and useful!

Wow these are really awesome, nice work!

I actually have that red puzzle in wood, it was gifted to me when I was a kid!

The piggybank is finished very nicely, can you give any information on the finishing procedure and paints used?

Would you be willing to share the files for the brain one? I'd like to do that one myself. 
Actually it's probably good common practice to share links to items on thingiverse or wherever to give credit, might be something i'll put into the forum rules. Not definitely required but it is considerate to the creator.

Thanks for the post, love your work

Sorry about that! I thought about link the STL but i hesitated due the -rules-Anyway, post 1 is updated now.
About the finish on the Gorilla, it was printed in brown filament (i really don't know whoch brand, i guess is a cheappy one), and the teeth and tonge were painted by me with acrilic paint. Nothing fancy to my eyes

Interesting, it looks really good and quite artistic. I have purchased an airbrush kit for my wife @Minx and she can spray acrylic with it, going to be doing some testing soon on prints that i've primed with a pressure pack plastic etch primer.

Another print i'd like to share with you!
This is a Dead Stranding diorama i found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3902569

It's still incomplete, i need to add the yellow tape on the packages, but it's 90% complete.

Wow mate that is actually awesome!! you could sell this stuff for quite an amount if you wanted I reckon... Although you'd have to purchase models from somewhre that allows commercial use..

Excited to see more

[CM17X]

Glad you like it!

I'm not sure if I can sell those, besides I think it's free for commercial use (need to check the link), anyway, not sure if someone would like it (maybe). I'm in love with the game, hence this "collectible".
For the packages I've used spray paint (silver) and black. For the small parts I've used water based paint. It's holding up great!

Very Interesting, we airbrush our prints normally, start with a plastic etch primer in a can, then airbrush waterbased acrylics that are watered down, and then coat with pressure pack acrylic clear, you have to go very light on the first layer of clear to seal the water based stuff in so it doesn't "melt" but the finished product looks nice and wears well since the clear goes a bit harder.

I reckon put a picture up of it on fb marketplace and see if there is interest. I've seen things like that at games shops for $150, if you found the right crowd or fb group i think you could easily get $50-$100 for that one... Make a bit of cash to fund the hobbies? lol

[CM17X]

I'll give it a try if I'm allowed too, you just make a me realize I can get extra cash for extra drones hahaha.

Dude, your paint process sounds great, I wish I could have the patience and tools for do the same, mine is pretty, pretty basic!

Hahahaha more cash = more quads = more happiness? 

We have a $120 airbrush kit, and use dollar store acrylics, it does take a bit of finesse and practice though...
