Super Replicator 2

Summary I wanted to 1-up my Replicator 2 with a Super Mario inspired theme! Aside from the blue paint used on the panels, all of the pieces were 3D printed and not painted or finished in any way, the multiple colors are from swapping filament colors mid-print. My general process was: Trace features from reference image using Illustrator. Import the SVG file of each feature into 123D Design and extrude each piece to create 3D models. Print all pieces, pausing mid-print to swap filament colors (this part was intense!) Paint the panels, glue the pieces, and assemble everything! Keep reading below for my full process of creating this! *NOTE: I used Illustrator because I have access to it through work. This same process could easily be done using a free alternative such as Inkscape. Print Settings Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer: MakerBot Replicator 2 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2
