3D Printing: The Newest Side Quest

All this questing has landed me on 3D printing. I'm having a blast with this new hobby, and if there's anything you want me to print, just let me know. Here are the things I've started on with my print frenzy.

Up next — biggest project yet

A five-foot Bandos godsword from RuneScape. Haven't started it yet, but I'm excited as hell. Everything below fits in one hand. This one's going to need both, plus a wall to hang it on.

Reference render of the Bandos godsword from RuneScape: a silver blade with curved hooks along the edge and a dark green grip — The target. Five feet of it, printed in pieces and somehow made to look like one sword.

Third batch

A few more from me.

Red-orange 3D-printed jack-o'-lantern with an angry carved face, sitting on a dark skeleton body that holds a large bowl, next to a blue Stitch head with sharp teeth — **Pumpkin skeleton** and **Stitch**

Small black 3D-printed Skeleton Agumon from Digimon standing on a wooden railing outdoors — **Skeleton Agumon**

Person wearing a brown 3D-printed wooden-looking mask with a studded center strip, with the background blurred — **My mask**

Black Draco-style AK pistol with a curved magazine, rail on top and a short handguard, lying on a wooden surface — **Draco** — Fully modular.

Guest prints — made by my friend Yusiff

These four were created by my friend Yusiff.

Hand holding a black 3D-printed jack-o'-lantern with angry eyes, sharp fangs, and a long tongue hanging out — Made by Yusiff.

Hand holding a tan 3D-printed long-haired cat sitting upright, with fur carved into swirling ornate patterns — Made by Yusiff.

Hand holding a small tan 3D-printed figure with pointed ears and defined muscles, standing on a round base with a clear translucent blob in one hand — Made by Yusiff.

Hand holding a square black-and-white 3D-printed wall plaque of Spider-Man's upper body in a black suit with a white spider emblem, in a thin black frame — Made by Yusiff.

Second batch

Skull season. A pumpkin made entirely of skulls (in red and in black), a pumpkin skull mask, a melting skull, a Leonardo head, and a gold Skyrim mask that was a special request.

Hand holding a red-orange 3D-printed mask shaped like a pumpkin skull, with a ribbed pumpkin top, open eye holes, nose holes and slotted teeth — **Pumpkin skull mask** — Pumpkin on top, skull underneath. Open eyes, open teeth, zero subtlety.

Hand holding a red 3D-printed pumpkin made entirely of stacked skulls, with the Bambu Lab P2S printer visible behind it — **Skull pumpkin** — A pumpkin made entirely of skulls. Printed on the P2S, which you can see sitting right behind it.

Black 3D-printed pumpkin made of stacked skulls with a ribbed stem, sitting on a cardboard box — **Skull pumpkin, black** — The same pumpkin in black filament. Same skulls, way more menacing.

Hand holding a red 3D-printed skull that melts down into a puddle at its base — **Melting skull** — A skull slowly turning into a puddle of itself. Red filament, tiny teeth and all.

Hand holding a gold 3D-printed Skyrim mask with a spiked crest, cut-out eyes and slotted teeth — **Gold mask** — A mask from Skyrim, and a special request. More on that below.

Green 3D-printed Leonardo from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with a blue cloth bandana, white teeth, and mesh in the eye openings — **Leonardo** — Leo from the Ninja Turtles, with a real cloth bandana, big white teeth, and mesh in the eyes. Cowabunga.

First batch

Past the "getting it dialed in" stage and straight into printing everything in sight. Eight down, two of them now missing a leg. Click any photo for the full-size version.

White 3D-printed figure of Chopper from One Piece, dual-wielding two flintlock pistols on a round base — **Chopper** — Made Chopper with some choppers. Two flintlocks, zero chill.

Gray 3D-printed dragon statue with wings spread, standing on a rocky base — **The dragon** — Wings, horns, a whole rock to stand on — and of course I broke the leg off it. Printer did its job. I did not. Here’s what it’s supposed to look like.

Hand-painted 3D-printed figure of Ziggs from League of Legends, holding a red bomb, with red goggles and armor — **Ziggs** — My favorite League of Legends character, so of course he was the first figure I've ever painted. The bomb is red, the grin is terrifying, and I'm calling it a win.

Black 3D-printed figure of Brook from One Piece playing guitar, next to a gray motorcycle with a straw hat on the handlebars — **Brook** — Also lost a leg, so I threw him on a motorcycle. Problem solved. Yohoho.

White 3D-printed figure of Nico Robin from One Piece standing on a round base — **Nico Robin** — Third Straw Hat to make it onto the shelf, and the only one so far with all her limbs.

Jeremy wearing a gray 3D-printed oni mask with tusks, fangs, and carved swirl patterns — **Oni mask** — Fits a real face, as demonstrated. The detail on this thing is ridiculous.

Black 3D-printed figure of Ryuk from Death Note, wings spread, crouched on a pedestal — **Ryuk** — Black filament, spiky everything. Haven't left him an apple yet, so I'm probably on borrowed time.

Tiny white and black 3D-printed Snoopy figure held in front of a car steering wheel — **Snoopy** — Small enough to ride along in the SUV on route. Best coworker I've had.

What they're supposed to look like

Mine are still bare filament. These are the painted versions from the model designers — not my work, just the bar I'm aiming for now that Ziggs proved I can hold a brush.

Painted render of the dragon model: purple and red wings with glowing green streaks, on a dark rock base covered in coral — **The dragon, painted** — Same model as mine up top, back when it had all its legs. Mine is gray and one leg short. This is the goal.

Painted render of a serpent dragon model coiled around a rock pillar, pale scales with red markings, mouth open — **The serpent, painted** — Already printed, sitting bare on the shelf. Painted, it's this.
