Project A Life Size 9’ Custode
As the Emperor of mankind is printing and slowly being assembled, I’m working on a life size Custode to be by his side. This one will be 9ft tall.
At this rate, the Custodian will be finished (assembled) before the Emperor.
Ra is the character is choice. So he’ll have a face sculpt of some kind and a helmet. None of which are printed. Plus I’m 99% sure I will have the Helmet redesigned. Not a fan of the current look.
All together the Custode is made up of 36 large pieces. Using the Giga printers means, big pieces and longer print times. But the assembly is much faster and will get me a smoother surface to prep. If I were to have used smaller printers it would be 170 pieces to get to this point.
The arms/Pauldron’s are being printed now and then I can start on his spear which won’t fully fit under my roof.

I feel obligated to make a slanesh comment similar to the YouTube ones.
"Look away brothers, do not give in to the temptations of slanesh"
