content: 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

content: 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...

content: 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.

content: 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.

Very good price for this quality.Now we can make a statue of our idolThis is the Blender file used for the animation:http://www.frank-buss.de/tmp/dave.zipI reduced the number of polygons with the decimation modifier to 1/10 of the STL file, because with the original size the rendering of the animation was really slow. The lighting is based on this scene:https://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/3836

content: Thank you for all the replies. Worked out of town all week and was unable to check in here but hope to be fre tomorrow to start on this fun little project. I'll upload some videos as I go along with the project and send in a box of "Booble-Daves" once their done.Note: the "see and say" was cool. Made me have a flash back to the comedian Dane Cooks bit on the speak and spell. The Bible's are a single button activation so a simple voice over should do the trick for me- excellent project though and I enjoyed it.

content: I am trying to get my hands on a "Sense 3D scanner" and if I do, I'll send it is as well so you can have a play with it. A buddy of mine bought one and used it to "clone-a-willy" for his wife. He made the clone to keep her "happy" while he was away fighting in Afghan with me. I'll make sure he sterilizes it before I buy it from him. Also scored a large eBay lot with some vintage gear. I will be picking it up next week & will upload some pics and see what's worth sending into mailbag or maybe even a longer video. 61 total pieces in the lot, so there has to be something worth a good look.Quote from: EEVblog on May 24, 2017, 01:50:13 pm
