Robocop 2 Cain - 3D print 1:8 scale

[Mikemc 533]

Hello
Something unusual. On the cgtrader website I found a RoboCop Cain model for 3D printing. The model is scaled to a scale of 1: 6. It is designed as a puppet for time-lapse photos (inspired by the original models used for FX effects during filming).

 

 

 

 

The model contains instructions in PDF format.

 

 

I took some shortcuts. It will be a static model and reduced to a scale of 1: 8 ( about 32 cm high). This will make assembly a little easier, and secondly my printer will not print such large elements.
A few photos of the beginning of the project:

Wow, very cool! Brings to mind the iconic line, 'Behave yourselves!!"

That looks great. I always wanted a model of Cain. And a decent ED209.

Amazing stuff, I can see company's of the near future releasing less mainstream subjects as purchasable 3d printed 'kits' oooh the possibilities! I look forward to seeing it progress!

Looking great! 

I've always thought that Cain was frightning as h...  when I saw the movie oh so many moons ago! 

Looking forward to seeing this finished!

Looks really good! The robot Cain was the only decent part of Robocop 2, unfortunately. The whole movie stank of "cash-grab" and was not even a tenth as good as the Paul Verhoeven original.

Correcting a typo.

Most impressive!

 

Does the access point for Cain's addiction to NUKE open up too?

[Mikemc 533]

You can make it open. In my case will be closed.

@Mikemc how do you find the Photon as a printer?

 

We have an old Photocentric LC-10, but are now considering getting a new resin printer in house as the screen resolutions and improved reliability of MSLA printers is increasing by the day. 

Look forwards to seeing how this comes out!

Still playing with photon and so far is ok. One down side, that you are limited to the small printing area, but so far its fits my purposes. Good quality prints and equipment is relativly cheep.
