I just finished making a terrarium for Kat’s birthday. It’s an homage to her favourite scene in Jurassic Park when the lawyer gets eaten on the toilet. I was able to pick up a plastic dinosaur from the Australian museum, and some architectural model making supplies for the destroyed toilet structure, but I wanted to make it accurate, so used 3d printing for the lawyer on the toilet. I’m not a great modeller/sculptor, but at the size it was printed, I could get away with a pretty rough digital sculpt to generate the STL for printing. It’s a repurposed version of this toilet combined with a modified old human base mesh I made years ago.
Once again I used Rapid Prototyping Services in Sydney for the print – the level of fine detail and quality was impeccable, unfortunately a bit masked by my dodgy paint job with too many layers of undercoat. You can check how well it fares against the reference.
