3D printed Cybran ACU

Postby Pierto » 03 Jan 2016, 13:05

I recently bumped into this 3D model of the cybran ACU: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:197841, and I decided to give it a go on my 3D printer. It took 7 hours to print and another hour to remove support structures, sanding and finishing. You can find pictures of the result attached (the model is about 10cm in height). There are some rough edges and minor mistakes, but overall it's a decent build.

If there is ever a next 'King of Cybran' tournament, I'm willing to give this model away as prize to the winner. The winner only has to pay the shipping cost (from Belgium).

Is this something you would be interested in getting as a prize? Let me know! I could still cover the model with a primer and paint in the cybran colours, but that depends on how much replies I get on this post :)


Cheers,
Pietros

That looks amazing. Nice find and thanks for contributing to tournament! :) Wish I had a 3D printer. If you ever get into the business of printing and selling ACU's, let me know! I'd be interested to know how much it would cost to buy one.

Thanks for your comments!

Unfortunately, I can not sell these because I don't own the design. So selling it would be illegal.

However, we could maybe work something out with the FAF donation system. If you donate x, a part of it goes to me to cover my expenses and shipping cost, the rest will be donated to the FAF community. This actually helps the game and promotes FAF. So nobody would sue me for this, right?

Maybe I should have a chat with visionik.

I want one. And you are definitely not selling the cybran ACU, this is clearly a completely unrelated design. This is not even selling, this is reasearch and development, for the betterment of the rainforests and indigenous people of Europe.
