Update 1/4/2020 - Link to Screen Shot Creation of Model https://youtu.be/fk_g6SB214k Update 16/2/2020 - Some Pics of Finished Model. While searching for references for the Element Fire, I stumbled upon a few pics of Ripley and an Alien not actually killing each other. That caught my eye, so here they are in a loving mood. Enjoy! Alien 15 pieces plus a separate head more suitable for FDM print (12 STL files total) Some joints are slot/pinned and others are a ball/socket design to allow easy joining/lining up parts. Ripley 3 pieces with an easy construction, join both legs then attach torso of choice. 3 torso variants with this one, so pick your favorite before construction. (5 STL files total) Download should be 18 files including Assembly instructions. I SHARE MY WORK FOR OTHERS TO ENJOY. PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THESE FILES ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR OTHER WEBSITES. LINKS TO THIS PAGE ARE ACCEPTED. Assembly.PDF tips included. All parts are orientated to print base ready to print with your favorite slicer. All parts are cut files to fit build plate of small resin printers like the Photon, examples in images SLA orientated for least support and strongest print orientation, as seen in the images. These orientations work for FDM printing but you may find a better orientation that reduces support. There is no base as the model is designed to stand on its own when fully assembled. All parts have been printed and developed to print. A lot of prints have been produced to get the figures corrected and fault free. The model is 1/6 scale, measuring 320mm from top of Alien head. Ripley measures 303mm, making her 1.82 meters tall in real life! Why cut into many smaller parts? I've been asked that before. 1. If you try to assemble this then paint it, it would be nearly impossible to get into all the areas especially between Ripley and the Alien's chest, head etc. 2. Smaller parts not only allow for Resin print at full scale but also allow individual parts to use less supports than one larger part on FDM printers. 3. As I design/sculpt, I already have in mind how it will split into parts and design these as I go. Trying them in slicers to see the effect of the design on supports. So now you know! All parts have been printed and I'll post pics later when painted. Enjoy!
