![]() Also if something doesn't quite look right or fits improperly, it is easier to fix one part file and keep track of those fixes than multiple versions of one master file. First this will make it harder to print on smaller beds. Resist the temptation to draw the entire ship in one file. Then I fix it right away and I keep checking the scale as I go along.Īs I CAD the parts, I make a Master Assembly File to check how the parts will mate up to each other. That way if I make a scaling mistake, I can usually detect it right away as the CAD drawing looks strange. I scale the overall body first, and lay down the lines in CAD as I calculate each length. If you measured the photo in inches 100 mm would have been 3 -7/8" then doubled, is much harder to calculate and mistakes are more easily made. For example, if you have a picture of the side view of the ship and it measures 100 mm in length, to double the length, then just multiply by two for 200 mm. I use millimeters as a reference unit of measurement because it makes the math of scaling a lot easier than imperial fractions. From those reference pictures, you can determine a scale of overall dimensions (length, width, height) and then scale up the smaller details. This project's steps can be followed for any ship or movie prop where you have a good series of pictures from all sides of the object. ![]() I did mine at 15% scale and it is about 14" overall length. If you want a very fine detailed ship like what you see here, then print it in resin. If you want a huge ship hanging from your ceiling Filament printing will work just fine. So I scaled it off photos and designed the details in CAD to be well over a meter long, then printed it down 15% of full scale to get the final result you see here. I know there are already assembled models of the ship used for gaming but I wanted to do a model that was scalable and a scratch build. He is the lizard looking dude in the Screenshot! However, Bossk makes his first appearance in "The Empire Strikes Back", when Vader enrolls Bounty Hunter's to find Leia and Skywalker. One that stands out from the crowd is from the Clone Wars animated series piloted by the Bounty Hunter Bossk and it is known as "The Hound's Tooth." The Star Wars Universe has a plethora of really cool space ships.
