Teacher Taps Gambody for 3D Printed StarCraft Hyperion Battlecruiser.
Gambody is a great repository for 3D image file for all things game and pop culture related. The resolution on a lot of those models is impressive, which is probably why 3D design teacher Sam Fenimore chose Gambody to snag the STL files for his StarCraft Hyperion Battlecruiser.
The ship is predominantly featured in StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty– a popular RTS (Real Time Strategy) game developed by Blizzard back in 2010. The level of detail on the Hyperion is astounding, considering there was a time when 3D printing resolutions couldn’t match the technical features of injection molded models from companies such as Revell, Bandai or MPC.
To build the Hyperion, Sam downloaded all 100 STL files needed to 3D print the battlecruiser, which was done using a D-Force 400 Delta along with nearly 9lbs of PLA material. What’s more, it took Sam more than 325-hours to print all the pieces needed and had zero failures or problems producing them.
Sam’s Hyperion is still a work in progress and is busy adding LED lighting for the windows and engines and plans to paint the ship at some point, which can be a very tedious and daunting task. He’s also busy with other builds as well, “I just finished another Harley Quinn. I am printing the Mammoth Tank and the Millennium Falcon base at the moment,” says Sam. “I expect to finish the Mammoth Tank next month. Who knows when the Falcon will be finished, I am sure I will purchase all the add-ons for that also.”
