Subject: 3D printed Yoda from last night.

Howdy,

Last night at the space I was printing stuff on my new 3D printer.

We printed a Yoda but due to me experimenting with bonding surfaces on the platform, about 2/3rs the way through it warped and hit the nozzle :-(

So I run another at 0.2mm fine but it took 2hrs even with a loose fill, so here he is for those who could not stay to see the result (the revs mostly).

Looks pretty good!

Toby, the unpainted one is here http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/8741/yodaj.jpg

The paints are a mixture of Tamiya acrylic and Plastikote acrylic. Dries in mins :-)

You can get the Plastikote stuff in B&Q it comes in little tubs.

Halfords auto paint works well on the abd too :-)
