A good friend of mine does illustration work for Battletech, amongst other things. Well, he recently bought a 3D printer. Here's his first original creation. It's called the 'Master Blaster', and is only 5.25 inches tall.
Tick... tick... tick...
Here's another of Dave's prints all painted up.
Here's another giant robot (16" tall) from a guy named Jodprak over on Deviant Art. Cool eh?
And another one I found online.
Now, think about GW's recent strategy of larger and larger robot/tank kits. Does this make sense, long term, in light of what 3D printers are now capable of? Or should GW be launching a 15mm update of Epic that can't be printed (yet) with the same clarity as injection-molded plastic?
