RafalFett's Boba Fett 3D Projects

Thank you for both of your answers!



Netfabb is a mesh repair software isn't it? At least the .skp model that I converted to .stl is a closed mesh. What kind of errors do you mean?

I'm not very fluent in 3d model terms, if I bring a file that hasn't been fixed by netfabb into my printing software or meshmixer it says the file has errors.
 
Somewhere in November of 2013 I had a crazy idea: to do a jetpack template using all the available images. So, I managed to do most of the basic drawings and was satisfied by the results:

Then came the winter holidays vacation and somehow my hunger for working on things related to Boba Fett vanished... My only explanation for this is that I have reached the saturation level, which happens when you do a thing for a long time, or eat the same food each day (the same thing happened in the first half of 2013 before I managed to finish the RWH v2 templates and build).

In early May I got the bug back while I saw some 3D models and I said to myself that I have to try to do the jetpack in 3D. But without proper introduction or knowledge for such programs, I failed big time, so I dropped this approach. After 2-3 weeks I saw an online tutorial and a new world opened before me: the world of 3D. Armed with SketchUp Pro, I started experimenting on shapes and forms following the step-by-step online tutorials and parts of the jetpack were created using my 2D drawings as a guide:

(Notice the segmented circles on the jetpack rocket and its base. I did them with the default 24 segments, while the jetpack trusters were made with 96 segments, so I'll need to redo the jetpack and the rocket).


=================================
Update - 30.11.2014
Managed to redo and finish the jetpack with all the greeblies (I used mainly the ESB era jetpacks as a guide), but sadly the main body will not be 3D printable as I didn't added wall thickness to the model (see the update from 30.06.2015 that corrects this statement); all the other parts will be posted as 3D printable models until the end of this year. While this is far from being perfect, it is still a beautiful piece and I love it... a lot! On to the images:

=================================
Update - 14.12.2014
The link to more images was updated with images of all the jetpack parts and the jetpack body. I also added all the links to the 3D models. Because I can't upload the jetpack body to Shapeways (the body is not 3D printable - sorry), I will add the model archived in a ZIP file:

>>removed<<

=================================
Update - 30.06.2015
The attachment of the jetpack body archived in a ZIP file was removed as I managed to do a printable 3D model of the jetpack.

This hunger lead to other Boba Fett parts too, at first pieces for the jetpack, like the beacon and the knob

=================================
Update - 20.12.2014
Updated the helmet greeblies and electronics links with the helmet inner electronics.

I'll add links with more images in the next few days. I'm also willing to share the 3D files, just want to know to which types I should export them.


=================================
Update - 23.07.2014
Added links with lots of images.

=================================
Update - 30.07.2014
I added links to Shapeways for each model.

It seems that in the conversion process, the model got some extra walls (one is on the inner part of the Eveready Minilight, and the other is on the sonic beam weapon). I'll post the models on the Sketchup 3D Warehouse too, but that will be in this weekend.


=================================
Update - 01.08.2014
I managed to open the STL files in SolidWorks and all the models are fine. The errors/walls that appear on Shapeways are created by their 3D engine. What a relief!


=================================
Update - 12.10.2014
Here are all the parts used on the Supertrooper automatic blaster, more exactly the aluminum plate and its components:

Here is my interpretation of the ESB EE-3 Blaster Center Greeble:

And an interesting fact regarding this greeble:

View attachment 47802

It seems that this part was originally glued to the stock rotated to right with 90 degree, but in the other scenes changed its orientation with 90 degree to the left. The logical reason for this is that these pieces glued to the blaster fall off often and were re-glued in a hurry.


=================================
Update - 25.01.2015
Finally I managed to finish all the Boba Fett helmets: the Supertrooper (clean/dentless), the Pre-Pro #1 (with the gash) and the other versions (with the dent).

Here is my take on the functional Pre-Pro #1 collar buckle/clip.

=================================
Update - 15.03.2015
The old file was updated with a more accurate model based on the one discovered by Seeker and posted by Art here ==> Boba Fett 1st Prototype Cape Clip - IDENTIFIED AND IN HAND!:

=================================
Update - 14.06.2015
Because of the 24 attachments/post restriction I will add my 3D models to post #10, in this case the jetpack frame with rings (quick jump here ==> Post #10).
Also most of the models are now for sale, so now you can order your favorite model through my Shapeways Shop or download it for free and use it with your 3D printer.


Have fun!
 
Thanks for the great work RafalFett! I've been working on a Shore trooper print, but may have to switch gears now. What height and size are your models scaled for.
 
Go to Shapeways' site using the jetpack link and somewhere under the About this product text you'll find a button that says Download product to get the file for free. I would recommend to always use the Shapeways files to print, because most of the SketchUp files are just 3D models not compatible to print (so far).
How come some of the files have a download available and others do not?
 
How come some of the files have a download available and others do not?

I didn't forget. All my generic models are downloadable, but some individual parts are not. As an example, the 1 piece ESB sidearm model is downloadable, but its individual parts (like the barrel or the grip) are not. Also keep in mind (and this is valid for everyone) that these models are for personal use. Please don't use them for any other purpose without permission.
 
I had to join to thank you for offering these files! I'm about 90% done printing the Jetpack, it looks awesome. Please do the gauntlets if you ever have the chance.


Thanks again!

Ron
