so much to do, so little time :D
This one was based on the awesome photos you guys have sent me from the SDCC , it's just an example of how detailed we can make some parts when we have good references.
Not gonna lie, I took this one a bit further bcs i really enjoyed working on it. I love hard surface props bcs i can design them in a way they would be designed if they were real.
Therefore i added 2 versions:
- resin print version that is is split by "material" so you can easily paint it and put together and get an accurate prop replica and
- filament print version - this one is a super easy to print , WITHOUT any support whatsoever kind a version, and to make it even more easier to use, i added a little solution on the "mesh" so you can pretty much print this one by color parts to avoid the need for painting the small details. The yellow mesh can be printed in 2 colors , just use the "color change" feature to switch from black to yellow filament to get an accurate representation of the mesh.
Oh, and based on some new images that reappeared I updated the qimirs gauntlet a bit, so it's closer to the "real deal" now :)
And more awesomeness coming soon :D

these communicators printed SOOOO well, I actually set up the 'hollow' resin version and printed it on my Bambu A1 Mini, at a friends request as they have some kind of idea not just for paint but for the innards, I can't wait to see what they do. The hollow needs A LOT of supports, but it does work pretty well

Ah okay cool. I’ll try the slit option. Thanks for the feedback!

You and me both! xD Great design by the way! Same goes for the helmet and saber. The fact that you made those three items (because you're like, the ONLY guy who seems to care about printability when designing files) really inspired me to make a cosplay for myself!

the original version also had no magnets and “slit” option :) some members tested the slit option and it works fantatsic, no glue , no magnets, no straps, nothing :D

this was from acolyte , but i feel like it could be a very cool prop to add to old jedi outfits :)

Scurvyrat
Dang, glad I didn't get the the point of my Qimir cosplay where I had to electroplate the gauntlet xD The new one looks great, can't wait to download and work on it!
