Cybran Monkeylord

thingiverse

This is a replica of Cybran's Experimental Spiderbot, also known as the Monkeylord, ripped from the Supreme Commander games. It's probably the most incredible unit in the game. I've enlarged some of its guns; you can attempt to fine-tune it further if you're itching for more challenges. I'm pretty certain that this is an accurate replica, and it should be without any problems. If you experience any difficulties during slicing or printing, let me know immediately. Feel free to remind me regularly if my files aren't updated promptly enough; I can appreciate the frustration of waiting for someone who didn't deliver as promised. I've made a few test prints of this unit and I'm still working on perfecting it. Eventually, I'll try printing a larger one; we'll see how that goes. UPDATE: I'm not sure when I'll finally get around to printing the full-sized version; maybe never is an option. If you're interested in collaborating on this project or need help with any aspect of it, please just comment and let's work together for now. Sorry for the confusion! Designing This Model I didn't design this unit and take no credit for its creation. The true ownership lies with Gas Powered games (or whoever holds the current IP rights). I simply followed this guide to extract the file from the game's unpacked units folder. After a bit of editing in Blender, along with some help from Netfabb, it was ready for printing. Big thanks go out to Simplify3D and Netfabb for their generous sponsorship of Deis3D, the Brandeis 3D Printing Club – where I learned these skills within Brandeis University's MakerLab. Specifically, their software helped make this print possible.
