I was thinking about this fantastic figure and forgot to mention that we named our dog "Leeloominaï Lekatariba Lamina-Tchaï Ekbat De Sebat" but just called her Leeloo :)

She was a little Havanese

Thanks,

John

He is awesome. YesYesYes

I'm curious how are you coming up with the programs for your printer?

Do we still call them 'programs'?

Again, great work. The dance/fight scene is that movie was a work of genius, and I'm still blown away each time I see it.

Shouldn't that be, "...Sssssssstonessssss..."

 

Fire burns, wind blows, water flows, and... dirt just kind of accumulates?

That's a lot of cool stuff Octane Orange!

he is almost 5 inches tall

So, somewhere around 1/20 to 1/24 scale--very cool.

Very cool!  I like the Mondoshawans' design, the lines and shapes make them look a little like European gentlemen from the turn of the 20th century-like they're wearing striped morning trousers, waistcoats, and cutaway coats.

As far as the name goes, it's mentioned several times, but usually with a lot of things going on.

Brilliant casting, too-I loved Tiny Lister as the President.

Yes, this is quite impressive; I didn't know there were any models of items from the Fifth Element.

Quite a job you did there.  I remember these guys from the beginning of the movie, but I never heard their name before.  Just how big is this piece.

3D Printed in resin on my Creality LD002R. i opted to print as a solid chunk, giving the model a nice heft when held. 

and I airbrush painted in tamiya gold with an over spray of tamiya clear orange for a bronze look.

I did a bit of chrome and painted over with clear blue and clear red for the lights.
