Project: GRAVEN - Robotic Infantry

[TechnoScream]

Ok, I'm still waiting on the weapons to arrive, but I'm posting pics of what I have so far, I'm really pleased with the quality of these compared to the first prototypes.

Please bare with me, I only had my camera phone to hand:














What you can hopefully make out in the pics are various bags, each holding the parts to make a complete model (minus weapon until they arrive). There are seven of these.

There are also some shots of the barrel & crate I designed (these are made up of two identical sides & a lid) which I thought might include as some kind of accessory pack if people liked them.

There is also a tiny, tiny wheel that someone asked me to produce a long time ago. I'm amazed at the detail in this, I forget exactly how tall it is, but I think it may be 13mm which gives you an idea how small the spokes and the nuts around the hub are.

The last thing is an extra model I purchased so that you could see one when its put together. I sprayed it silver but unfortunately the paint went on a little lumpy. Hopefully you get the idea though, this new printed version is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for when i started this project & im really excited at the idea of getting an army together consisting of these!

While im waiting on the weapons to arrive, i'm working on things to expand this range, including a commander, jetpacks and a heavy support model.

Looking real good!

So when is the ordering stage where I can order a set of my own?

Thanks Ayeong!  ...actually they're not far off being available to order! I'm currently waiting to recieve the weapons I designed to go with these models, but once Ive got them, and checked them over, I'm sending them to a company who will make the molds and reproduce them for me - hooray!

wow this is really awesome and good looking!
Specially the details on those tiny objects.

Off to mass production for micro army!

nice I may buy a set to support the cause :p

Thanks guys!
 
The wepaons and stuff have finally arrived!! Hooray!!!

Here are a few more pics:

Things to be aware of:

• If you see any white dust/powder on these models, this is a residue from the printing process, pleas ignore it, it can be wiped off.
• You should be able to make out tiny lines where these models have been printed in a machine. Remember the pics have blown these models up way beyond their actual size, and so those lines are tiny (approx 0.1mm) I'm only *just* able to feel them if i scrape my fingernail across them.

GW Space Marine included for scale only:


the weapons kit I had to wait soooooo long for. Please note I will sculpt some tiny blades onto the unoccupied handles in the middle of the pic to be used as standard close combat weapons (the blades were too small to be printed).

I noticed the pics of the guns above isnt that clear, so here is another pic, of a heavy weapon printed in a transparent plastic (same size but pic came out better)


I'm relieved to finally have all this together, it feel like I've been waiting a long time for all the relevant pieces to be delivered! *phew*

I still plan to expand this range with extra equipment and special characters ...and fingers crossed a vehicle in the form of a walking tank. For now though, I have a kit of 7 multipart warriors including heavy weapons, plus the crate and other battle field accessories.

It seems that you have done a very long project for those prototypes. I think you need a very nice prototyping machine to make those things. Your robotic infantry seem to be very nice. Well, you can not avoid some flaws in doing this but at least you're doing it to make it improved.
