Hello again friends! Today I have for you the Pumpkinholder! This was a mini I designed in Blender that one of my patrons 3D printed and painted for one of my upcoming 3D printing contests on my patreon. It was a fun model to design and I used it in the past for Halloween one shots. I basically took the story of the Pumpkin King from Charlie Brown and made it a short D&D adventure haha.
If you want to print your own the files are free and can be found on this post here: https://mz4250.com/posts/57554311
Oh and if you're curious about my Patreon I offer my patrons access to all my 7000+ presupported TTRPG models in one place, along with commercial options, a discord, and requests board. The drives have all the same models that are already out there for free in the internet. Its more for convenience rather than exclusivity.
In the Netherlands, surgeons and engineers gave an 83-year-old woman a full lower jaw made using 3D printing. The custom titanium jaw was built from powdered metal and designed for her body.
Every detail brings this mythical form to life. Toraji @toraji_art has achieved such a stunning sense of presence and personality in this wonderful sculpture.
Kitbash with 3D-printed parts. Modeling, printing, and painting by me. Might be worth putting a little warning here for gore, btw.
A while back, I used parts from the 30MM Rosan Paladin and 30MM Liber Warrior to make my Black Knight custom, but then I had two half-cannibalized kits left over afterwards. I decided to get a little gruesome with things and embrace the horror of kitbashing.
The concept behind this build was a corpse that a mad AI had repurposed into a soldier by replacing the severed limbs with robot parts. Nothing fits together properly and it can barely move, but if it works, it works. Not sure what the medieval knight + mad AI concept implies about the setting, honestly. It was just the only way to make skull + knight + robot limbs fit together in my brain.
There's a shot from Star Trek First Contact that's always stuck with me, where a freshly assimilated Borg has had an arm cut off and is having borg implants jammed down the stump. That was kinda the inspiration for the left arm here.
I used hot glue to create the gross viscera in the hip and arm. I'm honestly surprised at how well it turned out.
The only 3D-printed pieces on this kit are the little circles with three holes on them, which are just there to cover up all the leftover connection points in the 30MM kits. Lorewise, I guess they're like, control points riveted into the skeleton to give the AI control over each area.
I've been experimenting with new weathering techniques lately, and I'm quite pleased at how they turned out.
Fun fact, the only reason this fella is left-handed is because the kit the arm came from doesn't have an open hand. :P
The fun part about the mismatched legs is that their height difference is significant enough that just making the thing stand naturally puts him in a zombie-shuffle-ish pose. He is physically incapable of standing in a way that isn't creepy.
