My yesterday's print:

Sweet, is that printed as one or split like the thingiverse model?

Here is a preview of part of the cathedral: http://cubes.supercuber.com/ciHydeR9ax3S2j3BmSeB7Q

Very nice! What layer height is this?

very nice prints everyone
i have a hard time choosing my favorite but i think my greatest achievement is this one:

Fox Mccloud from the Starfox video games
it stands 20.5 centimeters tall
as you can see I printed it in parts and "glued" it together
the reason for this is of course its to tall to print in 1 go and of course the printing time
the parts took averagely 1.5 to 2.5 hours of printing
when something goes wrong its not the end of the world and it would waste way to much support material if i used bigger parts
its not finished yet it needs more sanding where the parts connect and then i will probably paint it
but its already one of my favorites

the slightly smaller one on the right is crystal also a character from the starfox games
i have printed all the parts i just need to glue them together
all her parts took about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours of printing each

all the prints in this picture are taken directly from different video games
i edited them and converted them for 3D printing use

no its not posted anywhere i took it out of the game myself
but here it is

its the one i did not cut up yet so you can play around with it yourself

Try a somersault! Hah, I liked that game! Nice models too! Awesome work.

Thank you YSB! Sorry about the large photos I could not figure out how to re-size them. These were all printed at 0.1mm layers with 10% infill. I am extremley happy with the way they came out. YSB really has a feel for what will print and what won't Thank you again. Also I would like to talk directly to YSB if it is possible, I have a question only you can answer.

lol well I had the first one on 5 perims and it took a LONG LONG time.

The big one called "Waiting for Battle"

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:61160

It took 20 hours to print and has some "fuzzys" where the plastic dragged a bit when it moves across the surface. I love this model and some sand paper tape around a butter knife will work brilliantly.

The one called "Who Will be the First"

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:68741

This one took 11 hours to print and I turned perimeters down to 3. This model came out excellent. No problems at all.

The last one is called "Guardian of the Temple"

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:49103

This one took 10 hours, 3 perims. Excellent print only a little clean up required.

After the prints were done I ran them through my dishwasher. This cleaned off some dirt that had accumulated and blew off some of the fuzzy stuff.

BTW I did these back to back, My printer ran for over 40 hours straight without a single hardware related problem. Yes banding is in the prints, but it is minimal. I am now giving my printer a well deserved rest while I figure out my next upgrade move. I think it will be the jigsaw replacement.

wow thats long

my fox model took around 7-8 hours of printing total and thats 20.5 CM high
with 10 percent infill

and lucky you i have had a lot of problems with my printer even now it doesnt work anymore
i got it since December and it has only worked for about 3 weeks
but customer support is great so im sure we can work it out
and it has never been on for more than 6 hours at a time
even with all these problems i still love my printer (when it works )
