Hey everyone, I'm currently building a pair of ODST cosplays with a friend. I could never find a proper thread for a comparison between the many ODST 3D print files available. In frustration, I just decided to buy three of the models so that I could compare and decide which one to print. I'm sure this will help someone else decide which files to purchase or which ones to mix-and-match.
This is between Aguilar, FromTheBrink, and Galactic Armory.
A couple observations I've made while pouring through these resources:
This is between Aguilar, FromTheBrink, and Galactic Armory.
A couple observations I've made while pouring through these resources:
- (Opinion) Aguilar's files are the most convenient due to built-in attachments for straps.
- (Opinion) Galactic Armory files are arguably the best sculpted with high mesh density, but not always the most detailed
- Galactic Armory gives you no method of attachment. It's up to you to figure it out, good luck!
- FromTheBrink gives you whole pieces in one file as an option, which are excellent for previewing sizes and cutting yourself.
- Certain vendors have more detail in pieces and less in others. It makes mix and matching strongly preferred if you want the most "accurate".
- Scales vary wildly across the vendors. Make sure you size to your specific file.
