Some more ASP picks

I'm just about done making adjustments to the ASP files. Thanks again for your support and patience. 

DLP Resin Test Print Complete

The test print is done....ish. I'm ordering some stickers for this thing but otherwise there isn't much I can do with it. There was way too much need for a Dremel in order to put it together so a n...

ASP FDM Test Printing Continues…

We are on day 3 of FDM printing the ASP. The main body and base will be another day or 2. So far so good. I won’t know what needs to be tweaked until I try to put the whole thing together. Good t...

ASP Resin Test Print

I just wanted to share a very quick video of my resin test print. This is just the top half of the ASP. I have started painting and should have a final piece in a few days. There are numerous tweak...

Test Printing continues.....

The resin print is about 90% complete. I had 2 pieces fail overnight and I am attempting to print them again now. I have also started the FDM test print. There are definitely some tolerances to twe...

Render Time

I'm not exactly the render master but I do have fun playing with it. The last few parts are printing now and I should be able to assemble what I have tomorrow. Then I'll make some tweaks. The file ...

Test Print Still In Progress

I came in this morning expecting this to be done (or failed). I had not done the math on when this 17 hour print would be finished. Its brutal waiting days to find out if I need to tweak things. I ...

ASP printing has started

This thing turned out to be a monster. I never realized how much insane detail there is on the ASP until now. Maybe because the plastic was so dark. 

Reverse engineering the ASP has been...

Just a little tease

I did not get as far along on the ASP today as I had planned, but I am still hopeful that I will get the first test print going before I leave the shop tomorrow. 

Quick update

Hey folks, as many of you may have seen/heard I am now working on the Operation: Recall Kickstarter created by Carson Mataxis of 3DJOES.com. The initial round of 3D design I have done for it kept m...

RAM Sidecar files here!

I didn't realize that I needed this in my life until I made it. This was a fun side project/mod. The gun mount for the RAM Gatling gun is tight so watch out. Better tight that loose in this case.&n...

RAM Sidecar

Hey everyone! A follower on IG asked if I could change up the Silver Mirage sidecar to work with the RAM. This was a fun and relatively quick  mod. I'm making a few tweaks based on the test pr...

Get your Wrekkin Rig while you can.

The WWE Wrekkin' Rampage Rigs are on "clearance" at Walmart. Down to $39 from $49. They may be on their way out. It is a fun toy to customize.

FDM Silver Mirage

My spouse was kind enough to print me this Silver Mirage in FDM. This is pretty raw, the supports were removed but thats about it. 

Get Silver Mirage .stl Files Here!

Attached are the .stl files for the Classified (1:12) scale Silver Mirage. There are several versions of the wheels and tires depending on how you want to print them. If you are printing in FDM I r...

ASP begins tomorrow

Tomorrow morning I'm going to get started on the ASP. I'll be streaming the build via YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook.

Final Test Print

What I am hoping is the final test print of the Silver Mirage is going on the printer in just a few minutes. I've included some split tires to make it easier for everyone to print if that is your p...

ZBrush

I've been teaching myself ZBrush for a while now and I am ready to start producing items with it. ZBrush is the next step for me in becoming a more marketable professional toy designer. I will stil...

Assault System Pod

The next Mark2Design Patreon Project is the A.S.P.! I'll be starting this one on Sunday (JAN 22, 2023) and will stream the Fusion 360 design process on my Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch as I did wit...

Updates!

I'm working on an FDM print of the Silver Mirage. Just to give you an idea of how that would look. Trying out some tree supports. The printer needs some tweaking. 

I made some adjustment...

Pork Chop Express

Howdy my fellow 80s nerds. I created some files so you can turn a WWE Wrekkin' Rampage Rig into the Pork Chop Express!

The files include a custom "Haulin Ass" grill, extended cab, and fifth w...

Test Print Complete

I’m very happy with the Silver Mirage test print. I have a few minor tweaks to make and I’ll have the files ready to go for you.

Back to Work

I had a great trip to Florida for CollectorFest. It was a smaller show but I had a great time and met some great people. I had a chance to catch up with some old friends and see my folks. 

Thunder Machine LED Lights

This is the circuit board for the LED lights on the Thunder Machine. Not overly complicated but will keep the parts compact and accessible.

I’m in Florida for Collectorfest and ...

Silver Mirage Sidecar

So far the side car looks good. I'll clean this thing off with some denatured alcohol give it a good cure and see how a Classified figure fits. 

This Sunday

Hey everyone. I'll have a vendor table at the South Florida Collectorfest this Sunday if you want to stop by and say hello. I went to art school in Ft Lauderdale and enlisted in the Navy shortly af...

Happy New Years!

I put a couple hours in this morning. I really want to have the test prints started before I leave for FL on Friday. I think it may be good to go on Tuesday. We shall see.

-Mark

Progress was made....

Thanks to the folks that stopped by to say hello. The Silver Mirage's side car is progressing nicely. I'm pretty sure that I am past the halfway point on this one. 

Still a WIP

Its Saturday morning and I'm going to stream some more Silver Mirage design while I work for a few hours. It will be live on the Mark2Design Facebook page, YouTube channel and Twitch. HAPPY NEW YEA...

Silver Mirage

Hey everyone. I have another 6 or 7 days of test printing parts for the Thunder Machine so I'm going to get started on the Silver Mirage! This Saturday (December 24th/Christmas Eve) I'm going to li...
