I haven't done any 3D printing for a while, so I decided to model up a pulse rifle from Aliens in 1/6 scale for a future move project involving Barbie Dolls in space with big guns called "Barb Hella:  Space Cop".  Modeled in Maya and then uploaded into ShapeWays and sent for printing in polished white nylon.  Maya uses some weird internal scaling so I'm not sure if it will be the right size.    Also the fine details like the hollow gun muzzles caused ShapeWays to require an autofix which made them fatter.  We'll see how that works when the part shows up next week.  I think in the future it would be better to use metal tube for those parts.  Makes more sense to me. 

Sounds effects? I have loads of them.  Some have been collected over the years from free websites, others were purchased from iTunes.  One of the most useful sets I have came free with a Sony Vegas upgrade, still sometimes I find myself searching for that one specific sound.  Anyway, these guys seem to be good, I was able to find some suitably spooky ambient sounds at the right price, with a clear license and I was able to download them very easily.  Their license specifically covers games which is great.

Now to see if I can scare myself! :-)
