3d printing aka Iam looking for a 3d modeller?
« on: February 28, 2013, 11:05:53 AM »
Hey guys, I guess you have heard about 3d printing right? This my friends is imo the future. For those who doesnt know what Iam
talking about a 3d printer is kind of what it sounds like, a printer that prints out objects. Not a paper but for example a bunny statue.
See this video for example!

HereĀ“s the thing. Iam currently in the preproduction of a pilot episode for a webserie I have been thinking about to make for like 1 month now. To get viewers you need many things but also cool unique props. This is where the 3d printing enters the picture! With the help of this new invention Iam able to for example make propguns of really rare weapons rarely seen in movies and such.

I know myself find some movies better just because they had a really rare gun in it or such XD


Ofc these guns wouldnt have moving parts and probably would have to be painted first. But with todays CGI and such there aint much of a problem ;)

They cant be to big so skip the flak 88 3d models and such. I was thinking about smallarms. A watercooled machinegun as biggest.

Models I would be interested of are.

Submachineguns from 1900-1930 like mp18,mp28 and such.

Light machineguns from the same era like Breda30, Madsen, FM 24/29..

This is where you enters the picture. To make one of these 3d prints you need a 3d model. Iam worthless with 3d modelling and was hoping if any if you guys would like to make a model or perhaps already have one you are willing to lend me? I wouldnt either mind if you posted links or such of websites with 3d models !

I havent checked everything up yet. I seriously have been thinking about getting one of these machines myself and start a smaller business selling cool props and such on the cyberspace. But for thatI need a 3d modeller partner ;) ( SIGN UP NOW <3) (( yes you would get paid))

I have checked with a company here in Sweden about making prop guns, but they wanted like 1000 $ for making ONE gun, SO! Now here in the beginning I just want to test the whole thing.

Help me out and I promise to show you guys pictures later <3  :D

My English is kind of useless. But that because Iam swedish Wooohoooj! ;3
