After seeing the photo shown here from John Boyega's Instagram page. I went on a hunt for this model. Unable to track down a fully accurate representation of it, I made my own. Here it is, enjoy. If you would like one of these printed for you, it will be available on my site @ https://theexplorographer.com/ soon. Feel free to contact me there in the meantime if you are interested. (Store creation from scratch takes a while when you are a one man crew)
Sorry the Grip section is not showing. It is a large complex model and Thingiverse will not generate a final view of it. I will put together a version so you can see the model assembled.
Also, thanks to John Boyega and his instagram page and Star Wars for the inspiration!! https://www.instagram.com/johnboyega/?hl=en
Printer Brand:
Ultimaker
Printer:
Ultimaker 2 Extended
Rafts:
Doesn't Matter
Supports:
Yes
Resolution:
.15
Infill:
10% or higher for weight
Notes:
I have tried to pre-orient the parts for proper printing. Your mileage may vary depending on the printer. I have printed this gun on both my Anet A8 and Ultimaker 2 Extended just fine. Supports are highly recommended. Set your minimum support angle generation at 55-65% depending on your printers capabilities and you should be fine.
Post Processing...
I highly suggest this process.
1) X-acto, sand lightly after printing to remove spurs from supports.
2) Assemble gun.
3) If printed in PLA/PETG spray parts with Primer/Filler, then sand. Repeat this process 3 times for nice finish.
4) Begin final painting/weathering
5) Seal the completed paint job
I can provide raw prints, primer/paint ready models, and finished painted models on my site @ https://theexplorographer.com/ (store coming soon but you can contact me there for commissioned pieces)
