[Hotfix!] Quick update to make the magnet holes on the Assassin helmet a tiny bit larger for better margin of error

Sorry about that folks one last update to the Bad Batch Assassin helmet and it should be perfect now!

[New Files!] The Bad Batch Clone Assassin helmet has been added to the February Specialist Rewards!

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] The Bad Batch Clone Assassin helmet has been added to the February Specialist Rewards! from patreon

It was super difficult to catch references for this guy in the latest Bad Batch episode but I knew I had to make his helmet ASAP! 

The helmet features a few different things:
- 6x3mm magnet holes cutout for the faceplate to be removed
- Ear variants to allow LEDS behind them
- Visor template and instead of...

[New Exclusive Files!] Medieval Mando helmet has been added to February Specialist Rewards!

Aaron Hughes post [New Exclusive Files!] Medieval Mando helmet has been added to February Specialist Rewards! from patreon

Based on the concept art by Jake Bartok this Medieval Mando helmet comes in 2 versions: damaged and undamaged.

The file is a single piece and should be a great helmet to print in one go if you can. More medieval helmets are on the way but feel free to let me know any others you'd like to see!

Hope you all enjoy! View Post

[Updated Files!] Despite remastering the Phase 2 helmet not too long ago we got some *perfect* references for the new sculpt I just had to jump on

Aaron Hughes post [Updated Files!] Despite remastering the Phase 2 helmet not too long ago we got some *perfect* references for the new sculpt I just had to jump on from patreon

This is the latest iteration of the Disney Live Action clones and I anticipate it'll remain like this for a while. They made some stylistic choices like removing the neck seal and details on the rear cylinder but overall this helmet is much more "inviting" and less restrictive around the head opening. 

It features ...

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] Westar-35 Blaster Pistol has been added to the February Patreon rewards! from patreon

This is another one from Sergey Kolesnik with some of my own modifications.

I bored out a 1/4" (7mm) hole through the center to provide some stability and added 6x3mm magnet holes for the ammunition. The diagram will be a little bit different from my updated version but it should still mostly hold true.

[New Files!] The Darth Revan Mask has been added to the February Specialist rewards!

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] The Darth Revan Mask has been added to the February Specialist rewards! from patreon

This one has been highly requested, I was originally waiting for some better references based on the KOTOR remake but I got tired of waiting for a game that might not release and did my best with what was available! 

The corners of the visor were a little thin so to help reinforce the mask I cut out 2mm diameter ho...

[New Files!] 1:6 Sergeant Hound and Grizzer figurine has been added to the February Specialist rewards!

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] 1:6 Sergeant Hound and Grizzer figurine has been added to the February Specialist rewards! from patreon

This one started out as a custom commission but quickly became one of my favorite recent figurines. It features a live action Sergeant Hound with his trusty massiff Grizzer! 

Both are default scaled to 1:6 and feature separation that should help make printing a bit easier. 

I also splurged a bit on the r...

Some of you guys spotted this sword in a recent post and I'm very happy to show it off to you all! Like the previous Medieval work, this sword is exclusive to Patreon members. 

It uses the same 5/16" diameter hole through the center for a metal rod to reinforce the whole thing and includes a split blade version.&nb...

[New Files!] Vertical and Wall Mounted helmet stands have been added to the January Specialist Rewards!

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] Vertical and Wall Mounted helmet stands have been added to the January Specialist Rewards! from patreon

This has been a highly requested one and I myself have been having trouble finding places to put all my helmets. So I set out to make the simplest and easiest to print helmet stands! 

These files include both a wall mounted and vertical standing version. Both require no supports to print!

Both use a 7/8" diam...

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] The Imperial Commander Cody helmet is here! from patreon

The Animated Phase 2 Commander has been updated based on new references from the Bad Batch show! 

The rear antenna and radio both feature a 2mm hole for a metal rod to be inserted that will GREATLY increase their strength since they're longer and a bit thin - that should prevent the prints from snapping!

The life sized version also includes a version where the lightsaber is removed from the hands in case you want to use a real one - which would look absolutely incredible. The files come in 2 ver...

[Featured Files] Core Bad Batch helmets featured in January Patreon Specialist Rewards!

Something I've been wanting to do lately is "feature" helmets from my previous work that may not be getting a major overhaul but are relevant to current Star Wars shows. So I wanted to kick things off with all 4 of the core Bad Batch member's complete helmet collection!

It may not apply to annual members since they'd al...

[New Files!] Another Sergey Kolesnik blaster has been added to the January Specialist rewards: the Westar 34 Blaster!

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] Another Sergey Kolesnik blaster has been added to the January Specialist rewards: the Westar 34 Blaster! from patreon

Jango Fett has always been one of my favorite Mandalorians. So when Sergey and I teamed up I knew this had to be one of the first blasters to print out!

I made some mods to the files to include a 1/4" diameter hole through the center for a reinforcement rod and played with some surfaces to make it easier to print.

Aaron Hughes post [New Files!] The Medieval Ep 3 Obi-Wan Lightsaber Sword from patreon

This one's another Patreon exclusive file for the month - the Episode 3 Obi-Wan sword! Inspired by artwork from Jake Bartok

It has the same 5/16" (8mm) diameter hole cut through the whole blade for a reinforcement bar - I definitely recommend a metal one!

Got lots more planned for January but I hope you all enjoy!...

I wanted to start off 2023 with a bang and kick it off with a popular file request - the E-11 Blaster! This should counter any A-280 blaster enthusiasts from last month ;)

This one is from Sergey Kolesnik but with my own personal touches including:

It's been an exciting December for the Patreon community and an even more exciting 2022 as a whole.

Another beautiful Sergey Kolesnik pistol has been added to the December rewards!

This one took a few iterations to get the proper articulation dialed in but I'm very happy with the final result!

It's got 13 articulating joints in total and is completely print-in-place. Unfortunately I wasn't able to do the holes for metal rings since some of the joints are non-circular but I felt like it was worth i...

This one took a bit longer than usual just from the sheer amount of details that went into this mask. I think you all are going to love it though! 

It has the surface texture modeled in and the circular details have an engraving line around them to help with painting.

So this started as a simple figurine someone commissioned me to make and print a life sized version of but quickly grew as I figured many people would want to use physical robes instead of printed ones. 

With that said there's 3 total versions of the figurine: With the outer robe, no outer robes, and robe-less. &nb...
