Description
So, you might recall my [previous Truck Vader Standy], which was pretty nice for a simple design and printed in blue because that's what I had handy. Well, Vader had a minor accident when one of my sons decided to see how firmly attached he was to the original base. I decided to turn Vader's traction into an opportunity to give him a base that actually looks like something from Star Wars rather than the generic thing he had to stand on before.
And here it is. It is designed in Fusion 360. The model for it can be downloaded here.
I printed it in Taulman Bridge Black and my printer settings were clearly not dialed in perfectly, but I'm reasonably happy with the result.
I modeled the base after the platform Darth Vader stands on in Empire Strikes Back while talking to the newly introduced Emporer. The area surrounding the central platform is genericish imperialish decorish stuffish I invented after looking at several images of windows and walls and such.
Cheers.
