I made a 3D-printed 1/6 scale B'omarr Monk!

In this video I show the process for making a B'omarr Monk model, including 3D printing and painting.
The model is from Hex3D on Patreon: / geoffro

I had a strong suspicion this was the reason why you were experimenting with transparent plastics :) But a Christmas ornament could not have been more appropriate!

[@maloryfunction2260]

I think the blue might be my favorite just due to how clean it came out!

[@chrishechtl8330]

The whole Christmas ornament naughty bit had me chuckling. "My wife certainly hasn't..." lol

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

Not long after posting this video, I noticed that the spider legs were starting to get bent out of shape under the weight of the model, so I added a thick acrylic rod to the base that will support most of the weight of the model. You can see a photo of it on my Instagram below. Just a little warning if someone else tries this project. I don't think the legs are thick enough to actually support the model over time, at least not with a heavy resin brain bowl attached instagram.com/p/CXwP8ZVO5Pz/

This is incredible. I need a smaller one now for my Kenner Jabba’s Diorama.

[@Chalor.]

Yeah, maybe Stan Solo will put one up on their Etsy store at some point...that's be awesome. With coming across all these professional made brand new Kenner style Star Wars figures has me regretting selling 95% of my vintage collection years ago.

[@cyrusq5999]

@@Chalor. I made the same mistake in '94 (selling off my 1978 - 85 figures). If I knew then how much Kenner vintage go for now, I NEVER would've sold them. Rebuilding my collection has been EXPENSIVE. I won't be making that mistake again.

[@timmc6009]

That is awesome. I've always admired your ability to see a project to completion. I always start off with the best intentions but always seem to loose focus and never finish them lol. Great work.

[@idiot_city5244]

Absurdly awesome. Im also so jealous you have that court denizens pack haha, so expensive now

[@ultramaximusreviews]

I really like the swappable brain bowls - very cool idea

[@williamporter7596]

Outstanding. I really enjoyed the trial and error examples you included. And the final result looks incredible.

Love your work and your videos man keep it up!

[@williamwallace9427]

Awesome as usual

[@GuanoLad]

One of the most interesting things I'm looking forward to in Book Of Boba Fett, knowing that we've only seen snippets from one episode, is how much pre-existing lore will be drawn upon for adding flavour to the stories. They did an exceptional job for Mando, especially season 2 where almost every episode had at least one cool callback or surprise, making it watercooler fodder for the subsequent week, and that worked out so well for them I can't see them slowing down on that now. And it's Star Wars-palooza throughout 2022 on Disney+, so even if they did slow down a tad, there's another show to make up for it coming along a couple of months later.

[@ericblenner-hassett3945]

Amazing work! I am definitly going to be looking in to magnets for modeling as you have nailed it and have it with what color you want.

[@Chef_PC]

Geoff does amazing work. He pumps out so many high quality models every week. It’s the best Patreon sub I have.

great job

[@LG-te4vh]

The 3d printer magician did it again....

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

SWEET!

[@sammyscollectabletoyshall1626]

Very cool

[@Chalor.]

Aw man, I was hoping for a Jabba & co. group shot at the end; or maybe one 1/6 figure posed next to it to get more of an idea of its massive size. Brings a little tear to my eye every time I see one of these custom Jabba denizens...cause we're never going to get that 1/6 Max Rebo band Sideshow said they were gonna do so many years ago. Only saving grace is if any of those species show up in the new show and get made, but I don't see some Amani or Klaatu getting made.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

Well I did show it next to one figure (Bib), but unfortunately I just don’t have the space to show or even display it next to Jabba.

[@Chalor.]

@@MightyJabbasCollection Eh, sorry man with my mess-up. Gotta blame my lack of observational skills cause I'm at work. I'll definitely re-watch to make sure I don't miss it a second time. 13:44 There it is. Woah, that's certainly larger than I thought they'd be in 1/6.

[@perello23]

Vary cool!👏👏👍😉‼️

[@BlackArroToons]

Excellent work creating this B'omarr Monk! It would be interesting to hear if they can talk in The Book of Boba Fett.

[@sourdough7791]

Mighty Jabba sounds a lot like Tom Servo from Mystery Science Theater 3000!

[@charleswilson3439]

gotta get that

[@thestarwarsvintagecollecti6201]

Yes! I wait for your uploads if you love the OT come check us out loads of great OT content. Radio dramas, interviews, documentaries and much more! You might even find the droids your looking for! Keep up the great work.

[@LMUstacker]

it's beautiful. Something that confused me is that in the Boba Fett trailer the monk looks as small as an actual spider, or a rat or something... While I could remember from ROTJ that they were as big as a person. So I thought "mah, my bad memory, it's probably not the same thing".

[@darthprime4916]

I’m thinking they will have legends cannon or something close for their story as it seems this division of Star Wars is paying at least homage to the original material. Just the fact it’s in the trailer gives me a new hope. 😉 Great video also!!

[@NAPalm2112]

ayy I guessed right!

[@zenmasterjack3873]

I would pay so much for one of these.

[@sw0578]

Have you tried using a polishing dermal on the clear resin? It may help with the transparency.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

I haven't tried that, no. But I think there is a limit to how far you can get with 3D printing. I can't see it ever being close to as clear as the Christmas ornaments I ended up using.

[@shayposting]

Looks brilliant! Do you think the print could work at 1/12 scale as well?

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

I suppose it could although the legs would end up being very thin

[@Bucky749]

I thought you might like to know it looks like jabba the hut has his own comic I don’t know if it’s a on going or just a one shot but Jabba has three different variant covers .

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

Thanks. If it's the one that was released a few months ago I do have them.

[@mr.revrac5602]

Is this model still available right now or if I bought the subscription would I have to wait the three months to have access to it? I’m hoping the latter but guessing the former

[@jamestheredenginefan5268]

I Knew It Oh And Btw I Got A Jabba Ceramic Mug At A White Elephant Gift Exchange

[@ValentinTournebize]

One thing to level up this model would be to cast the 3D printed brain and make it silicone pink tinted.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

I don’t think pink would necessarily show up well in the resin

[@mikecyanide6714]

Is the model the same as potf version just larger? I own the potf version but is missing the lower claw.... Just wondering if I could hire someone to print me out one, if it’s compatible with the toy.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

It’s not the same, no. It’s definitely inspired by it though

[@franksilva3566]

Do you think this could be printed in FDM? Thanks

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

Maybe. It would be a challenge though

[@kevingallagher188]

Have you been able to figure out how much you paid total to make it? Collectors would love snap up a custom as good as yours.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

The materials aren’t that expensive but the amount of work involved would probably make it unlikely that I would want to make others

[@kevingallagher188]

@@MightyJabbasCollection I guessed that much awesome work!

[@JasonALMS2010]

LOL @ 11:36

[@MasterRazzer76]

Are you a Collector of 1/6 scale? I know you collect lot of Jabba but do you have other figures

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

There was a time when I collected and customized 1/6 figures in general, but they got too expensive for me. But I do still have my Sideshow Jabba setup in 1/6 scale

[@MasterRazzer76]

@@MightyJabbasCollection Ah ok, Gonna say the custom you make is very awesome. I done a few customs myself but never really made anything from ground up except for my 1/6 Tusken Raider

[@paulosborne6517]

Can you orient the bowl a little, so the liquid surface is level. Liquid always finds its level rather than being at a slant.

[@daniel_sc1024]

Those are some very creepy....droids?

[@burntmarshwigglestudio597]

Cast n craft turns yellow over time. Keep it out of uv light

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

That's too bad. I generally keep things out of UV in any case, but this is a common issue with these kinds of resin

[@marboba]

Lol typical hex 3D prints never work out that’s why I canceled my patreon every item should be 100% tested

I HATEEEEEEE polyester resin... It IS death.
