Slash Harnet Minmatar Industrial Services INC	Posted - 2007.03.17 22:57:00 - [31] Originally by: Jason Marshall Originally by: Slash Harnet Originally by: Jason Marshall Originally by: Frug Those are pretty cool. Could look very nice pained up on a chess board. I'm still waiting for a bigger model though. I need a ferox or cormorant or something for my desk. They are expensive, roughly one dollar a cubic inch. Since tolerance isn't an issue, can't you just make one of each and then cast the rest using a good old fashion mold? Or even better, rapid prototype a mold. Im not sure how to acomplish that. we have a foundry and everything, but i dont think they would be that detailed if you did it that way. Damn, how much equipment do you have access to? Any yeah, you would probably loss a bit of detail in the process. Unless you made really complicated molds that is. signature removed ... Pirlouit I finally got my sig nerfed once, I feel like a forum warrior!

Any yeah, you would probably loss a bit of detail in the process. Unless you made really complicated molds that is. Its a full workshop. Its the schools metal, wood, engineering shop. And the classes can qualify for college credit. Everything is industry standard. We have i think 6-7 lathes, several welders. a cnc, the prototype printer. Welding stations and the foundry. We are lucky bastards. Oh and i posted up 2 teaser photos of the brutix. Tacky lens flares in sigs 4tw!
The Pointless Gallente Lacks a Point Ltd	Posted - 2007.03.17 23:10:00 - [33] Edited by: The Pointless on 17/03/2007 23:07:06 Originally by: Jason Marshall About the brutixes, my corp wanted to see them badly. So i took pictures with my cellphone since the nice camera i used with the others isnt mine and is locked up in the school. So consider them teasers :) Surely Wal Mart sell cheap and cheerful digicams, like ASDA do? Or am I wrong in guessing you're in the US? ----------------------------------------------- I'd rather be a jack of all trades than a master of one.

OH NOES! Think you can stand the corruption?
Jason Marshall Emerald Empire	Posted - 2007.03.19 19:16:00 - [37] I will update the thread later today with pictures of the brutix :) Also thoraxes are in the oven :D Tacky lens flares in sigs 4tw!

Serenity Steele Rearden Steele	Posted - 2007.03.19 20:08:00 - [39] Waay cool. EvE Offline Stuff FTW. Chess is a nice touch as well - i usually describe EvE as more like playing speed chess than a flight simulator. Eve Strategic Maps - Outpost Alert
Juwi Kotch Gallente VIRTUAL LIFE VANGUARD Galactic-Federation	Posted - 2007.03.19 21:10:00 - [40] Edited by: Juwi Kotch on 19/03/2007 21:09:28 Today I had business to do at the CeBit in Hannover (world's biggest IT fair) and the German importer of the zprinter has a boot there. I took a closer look at the color printer version of that printer (model 450, it prints the models in color like an inkjet does it on paper), and what it can do. Simply amazing, close to unbelievable! If I would be millionaire, I would buy one on the spot! Question: How did you get the 3D data of the ships? Juwi Kotch JOIN NOW, KLICK SIG!

Dragonrazor Amarr	Posted - 2007.03.20 00:03:00 - [47] Actually, I was thinking of trying to model EVE ships using sculpy, and or making resin castings out of my sculpy models at some point. However my clay modeling skills are inferior (despite some good successes), and in order to make truly detailed and accurate ship models, I would need a better way to match them to a good set of photo's/schematics. IMHO though, people have been doing amazing things with making pewter figurines for gaming, and plastic etc. It still tweaks my nipples that CCP can't do SOMETHING to make ship miniatures a reality. I know for a fact that I would be scooping them up like drones taking agro... I suppose however that demand projections just don't meet cost to manufacture... and we would be spending $100 per model or something to keep profit in CCP's corner... Anyway, I will eventualy make a better stab at making my sculpy versions of CCP's ship as I get better, maybe someday I will be able to post em in picture form without getting all red in the face. As far as the pics shown here, I envy you... Depending on the cost, I would consider purchasing some of these from someone. It's just a crying shame the printer costs reminds me of the early TII market... Or the current rig market heheh. ******************************************* "Stars Die... Empires fall...

Stakhanov Shih Yang Tong	Posted - 2007.03.20 00:19:00 - [48] Awww... Should we cross paths in game , I'm so ransoming your ship for one of those
Dictator Dan Caldari Emerald Empire	Posted - 2007.03.20 00:47:00 - [49] Originally by: magnus amadeus Good job there Jas and Dan. Are you guys going to have enough time to finish the project before you guys graduate? yes we will, we have about 2 more weeks of printing, then it is a matter of coating the models in glue, then painting them. The board could take anywhere frome 2 days to a month, depending how complex and sweet looking we decide to make them. Im kinda mad that I wont have more than a few months to show it off/PWN people with it before i go to boot camp, but meh. ~~~~~ My Ibis is in your air ducts, about to puncture your pod! OH NOES!

Fight against your friends and ZOMGPWN there ass. Plan your next POS assault! Want it to scale? Buy a football field to fit a titan!" ~~~~~ My Ibis is in your air ducts, about to puncture your pod!

Physically we are limited to about a foot on each axis, realistically no more then 3 inches :P. Has for beign able to do it in my high school engineering class, i am truly greatful to the Career and Technical training program and the local tax payers :D. And im sure ill be dipping into my own pockets come end of term :P. Again they are expensive. But oh so worth it i hope! Tacky lens flares in sigs 4tw!

Yeah, and I was thinking about it and a tournament is pretty much out of the question because people would just use chess software. But great stuff, as a chess fiend I heartily endorse this and look forward to the results. ;)
