Warhammer 40k Darktide Power Cell

thingiverse

I took a moment to slowly circle around a Power Cell in Darktide then eyeballed it in Tinkercad. When you paint it, the little inset areas are to hold wells of UV reactive or glow-in-the-dark paint, to give it a good glowing effect. Provided in two flavors - a monolithic print and a version cut in half, since supports are tricky on this one. I printed the half version and alignment of the pieces was ever so slightly off - it might be worth printing the complete one and just picking the supports out. ~~I might make another version that's hollow and can have LEDs placed inside it to glow through.~~ *UPDATE:* I've made a few changes. STLs replaced. There was an STL error inside the monolithic print that I've removed and re-uploaded as "power cell fix." I've also managed to corrupt the save in Tinkercad somehow, so a proper fix might take a while if I have to rebuild this from scratch. **All versions:** <ul> <li>Refined the glowing ring at the top of the model to be deeper and a tiny bit lower.</li> <li>Corrected mistake on a horizontal view port being the wrong size (one was 1.5mm the other was 1mm).</li> <li>Refined depth of view port inserts to be more uniform throughout.</li></ul> **Monolithic version:** <ul><li>Changed the power terminal on the bottom to be flush with the bed, reworked layer height of the steps around it to be more printer-friendly (at .2 res).</li> <li>This was not changed on the halved version as it's print orientation allows it.</li></ul> **Hollow version:** <ul><li>Created a hollow version and a corresponding insert cylinder for use with either a different material (such as glow in the dark). This allows the model to be placed over an LED for extra effect.</li> <li>Considering scaling the model up to allow it to be placed over a cheap LED votive candle or making a base for a CR2032 to power an LED.</li></ul>
