TK-12953 Shadow Scout Build Log

[Jsilvius]

So I've decided to go the route of printing my Shadow Scout.

I'm waiting for IB to open for the July Wave to buy the soft parts.

Here are some pictures of the hard parts in progress.

Thanks for sharing!  At a glance here I am somewhat concerned about the look of these files.  Others can def chime in, but the. bicep raised area appears overly raised.  The greeblie looks like it is part of the print and the recessed area it should sit in doesnt look correct.

Likewise the chest shape and indent just seem off for some reason.

Anyways I hate to sound like a downer.  Everything may look good in person and I could just be acting overly wary of 3d print files (because they are everywhere)…but still thought I should at least mention the concerns.

May I ask where you sourced the files?  Are you aware of others using them?

Hey David,

I got them from ChrisThePropGuy who indicated that he had several folks get approved with them.

The greeblie is just set in there for the photo, I haven't attached it yet.

Thank you for your concern, I'll reach out to my GML and have him take a look as well.

I also have a set from MrPoopie form the Pathfinders detachment.

The one of the left is ChrisThePropGuy (Flat Black) the one on the Right is MrPoopie (Gloss Black).

They looked the same to me, I just used the ones from Chris because they included the helmet.

Noted. Thanks for sharing.  I am unfamiliar with the 3D stuff in general.

I think the part we are seeing is usually the ridge on the chest goes all the way to the neck, at least that is what I'm used to seeing with ROTJ TB's. The bicep stuff looks fine to me.

Ultimately, the GML will be the one reviewing it and approving or not approving, so it is good that you are checking with them!

Thank you for the input guys.

I'll keep you in the loop as I build.

I think it is just hard to see in the picture or it isn't as defined. You can see the ridge all the way up, but I think it may start to flatten sooner than others. I've got a friend that is showing off his TB at a troop this weekend, I'll take it up and compare with him.
