Borderlands - Anshin Health Now (Cosplay)
10/23/2015 - Much chaos ensued, files got rage-deleted, models were re-built. If you have downloaded previous-versions of things, I would delete them and get the new ones (as of today).
Here is what's happened
- Rebuilt the Needle using newly learned 123D Design tricks. Also added a "pointy" version in case people want to follow canon.
- Rebuilt Vial (part 1, and 2 because I didn't have the original 123dx files (doh).
- Rebuilt the Clip because I wasn't happy with the proportions (was expected)
- Built the Grip to proportions that I liked. Should probably use Vial pt2 to cut any overlap (should fit as-is, but wouldn't hurt to make sure ;) )
- Cut the Collar using Clips, and Grip to make assembly/gluing easier :D
- Began modeling the handle.... this is going to be a huge PITA.
Again ALL original (123D Design) design files are available... if I missed one please let me know :D
Much love,
Banjo
10/22/2015 - Took another good look at the in-game model, and extended the "screw" from the clip to the collar surface. Still need to try assembling the parts to see if they even fit together (lol) :D
Added a NEW version of the collar which includes the chamfered edges (horray!). I modeled it to 30mm L x 30mm OD. The ID is 20mm and probably needs to be changed to match the front vial, and maybe add 0.5-1mm to allow for sanding/final adjustments when finishing.
Sorry for the spammy updates >.<
10/21/2015 - Ignore previous statement :D. Just learned about "Loft" function. Hours of headache gone! First draft of clip is now attached (with matching 123D Design file). Need to make sure it mates properly with collar, and the rear-half of the vial. Also not sure about the 5mm thickness, but we'll see!
--Previously--
Slowly building the Borderlands 2 Health Now! (Aka Feel Good Needle) from Borderlands 2.
WORK IN PROGRESS!!
Todo:
- Fix Collar length to 55% of vial_pt1 length
- Re-do Collar in proper order (tube > chamfer > grove)
- Make Clip (the bit on front that screws in)
- Make Grip (the bit on the bottom)
- Make Handle (the bit on top)
- Decide if I -really- want to hinge the handle bit... (Edit: Yeah... I really do want to make it a spring-loaded hinge... but how...hrm)
