Yoda Phone Holder and Charging Station

thingiverse

This 3D model draws inspiration from DaWhirlpool's Yoda Bust and Plaque 3D model. Starting with the head mesh of his design, I built upon it to create the body and new base. The 3D print is specifically designed for an iPhone 8 fitted with an otterbox case. You may need to employ a dremel tool or a metal file on the base and Yoda's hands to achieve a smooth fit for the phone case. During my printing process, I had to make adjustments to the model after it was printed. I attempted to incorporate these modifications into the .stl file before uploading it here but am uncertain if I made sufficient changes. The base prints with sharp corners, which can be smoothed out using a dremel tool to achieve a stone-like appearance. To recreate this look, rough up the base before applying paint. The final version of my 3D print seen in the photos was hand-painted with acrylic paint. After painting the model, I applied a coat of clear matte finish spray paint for added protection and a sleek finish. Yoda's hair seen in the photo was created using the fluff from a cotton ball glued to his head with hairspray. The 3D model is designed around a Fantasy wireless charger that I disassembled but would also work seamlessly with a standard charging cable.
