So once again, casting issues have caused the project to be held up again. It wouldn't have been an issue, but I had a pretty solid deadline, due to the fact that I am moving to California at the end of the month. So once the deadline came and went, and I didn't have the full cast, I had to push things back again. But the main reason for this post is that I promised to put my 3D models up for use, but only after the film was done. As that may be a ways ahead, I don't want anyone to have to wait that long. I've already been asked about it by multiple people so I decided to release them ahead of schedule. They're nothing crazy, but I hope you all like them anyway.
So the first one, and the one I've been asked most about is
Kat's TacPad from Halo Reach. I modeled this to be used with a 10cm x 10cm (sorry Nintendstroid, I had said 2"x 2" in my PM) EL Panel. We did that in place of an actual LCD screen simply because it was faster. The EL panel would give off the proper amount of light and then we could add whatever we wanted in post.
Second is the
Spoofer. It was modeled to be used with a 5th Generation iPod Video, a 9V battery, and more EL Panel for the back-lit buttons. This bad boy can be seen earlier in the thread.
Lastly is the
Halo Reach Data Module. This is the one seen in the first and second mission of Halo Reach. I modeled it to be used as a flash drive. It prints in 3 parts, the top housing, bottom housing, and the cap. The top and bottom housing fit perfectly around
this flashdrive. The cap fit's decently well, but it's a tad loose. A slight modification may be needed to fix it so it fits snugly. Also, the pin isn't in the model as I had planed to laser cut it out of Gold-on-Black Laserable Plastic. This guy never made it onto the thread as I had a super-secret plan for using it, but it's a super fun little prop and would make a great addition to a cosplay, so I figured what the Blam!
So there you go. I'll try and keep you guys updated on the project post-move. Too many fan films never make it past pre-production and I don't want to be added to that list, so here's hoping I can get things rolling in California. Happy Printing!
