Dark Trooper Articulation in progress

Added 2021-01-10 14:43:32 +0000 UTC

Update 18 (25DEB2021) - have the blaster and new hand pre support set up, I think this upright orientation best with lesser supports to minimize the support touching around the surfaces. Let’s see how it turning out.

Update 17 (24FEB2021) - So here with the DT blaster design done, took some time to get the size and detailing build for this :) I will be pre support and test printing it along with the IG-100 figure next :)

Update 16 (20FEB2021) - starting the hand revise works here, all optional hand would get the update and go along with the March blaster release!

Update 15 (11FEB2021) - got my prototype painted now before my CNY break :) hope you guys like it and looking forward to see your result !

Update 14 (01FEB2021) - new test printing with tolerance compensation at 0.08mm, late bright here and I will assemble this tomorrow. I’ve tested 0.1mm it works well but forgot to top up resin in the middle of print and it failed in the half way lol. I assume 0.08mm compensation is going to be the magic numbers :)

Update 13 (31JAN2021) - I've done 2nd test print with the tolerance compensation, this new feature works great for tight fittings part. I just cut the supports and clean up then it fit totally perfect with this settings. I'm going to make changes to the forearm- wrist tolerance in the 3d model for some fine tuning~~

Update 12 (29JAN2021) - preparing assembly manual as something like this, hope this help to make the work easier.

Update 11 (29JAN2021) - 1st assembled figure with some posting, I will come out a assembly manual as there is 58 pcs of parts, then modify some tolerance adjustment.

Update 10 (28JAN2021) - 1st prototype test print is done! The back butt cylinder collapse a bit due to not enough supports, I will add more to hold it underneath the cod section. Time to assemble it ;)

Update 09 (27JAN2021) - Pre support Chitu file is done and sending to first test print! hell the 58 pcs of custom supports lol~~ For Mars printers you will need 3 prints to get it done, I will also include a version of photon mono X by putting all in one go which I'm testing now, let's go wild a bit :)

Update 08 (26JAN2021) - Articulations is done and yes... we are having it breakdown into 58 pieces, I put each sub-assembly into 10 modules (01~10) as per their location. I 'm doing the pre supports set up to all 58 STL and will organize it to fit mars printer in 2-3 prints, (I assume Photon Mono X can have it all in one print)

Update 07 (24JAN2021) - Hands option added!

Update 06 (22JAN2021) - Okay, I updated the head with side breather as HT reference :) The hip inner detail is up now, I may have an idea for the ball joint this time, I hope it works better than previous figure~~ Time to add some optional hands and then I'm good to make articulations design!

Update 05 (20JAN2021) - I got full body components turn out well now :), Hot toys version just turn out in time for some tweak like back thigh! I will do the under cod detail with some pre articulation set up next ;)

Update 04 (19JAN2021) - Tweaking proportion overall and up to now, a set of weapon gripping hand is completed, I will also include a set of close fist hand to this model :)

Update 03 (15JAN2021) - More progress for the rest of torso and back waist, hope you guys like it! this droid really have a lot detailing to focus but I should able to get it done as planned.

Update 02 (12JAN2021) - Tweaked droid head proportion to make it looks more accurate , modeled chest and shoulder plate (I will need to think of a way to mount the shoulder armor later). But hey, I worked out as many detail that I can spot to the torso and back :D

Update 01 (11JAN2021) - Super~~ love the result of this head even its a complex shape design in the helmet, I think I got it now~~

Hey guys, here with the next project progress, quite detail helmet to model and complex shape. So I will do the 1/12 scale and then convert it the same way as Q9 Zero full size armor pieces.
