Wanted: 3D image of Dave Jones head/ profile
« on: May 24, 2017, 06:25:44 am »
I've got your interest. Why?

I recently found a box of old talking bobble-heads and other cartoon characters. When you press the button they recite phrases from their respective TV shows or one-liners that the characters began known for. I plan to 3D print Daves head, glue in onto the dolls, borrow some sound bites from his videos, and mail it in for a mailbag video.

You will get all the classics like:

"A real trap for young players"

"Bob's your Uncle"

and my personal favorite from the Batterizer series,

"You've gotta probe the monkey right up the arse."

If there are other phrases that should be included, feel free to share them. If you happen to have a 3D scan on Mr. Jones profile, please message me.

Hope your all laughing a bit because I think it'll be great!

Cheers,

Chris

There could be a market for those!

"Winner winner, chicken dinner"
"That's a bit how you doin'"
"Half a bee's dick"
"We're in like Flynn"
"That's a Bobby Dazzler"
"You gotta be shitting me"
"FAIL"

Actually, I shot a bunch of head profile photos for the exact purpose of creating a 3D model of my head, but the software I used never quite worked right.
I should dump the images...

That'll be a riot, Chris! Three Daves -- two of whom look and sound alike.

If the bobble heads support a startup sound when powered on, Bobble Dave should say, "Hoi".

You know that Ben Heck made a gadget that does just that.

Creating 3D model now.

The photos aren't ideal, but we'll see how it goes.

[edit]
Here is the rough model. Cleaning up now.

Capturing reality for the photogrammetry, then z-brush to clean up.

I imported the STL into the Makerbot software (took a while, big file) and tried to print but the render base isn't flat or something so the printer only printed a small base toward the front.

Yeah, it's not really set up for 3d printing. You will have to trim the base flat or manipulate the model to sit flat. Sorry I'm not near a computer or I would do it.
