Finally got my Raptor

[JesseMoody]

I have seen the red Gen 1 located in Hermosa. It's nice, but I think they are asking too much (IMO).

yeah i mean it is a nice truck but it has def seen some wear and tear and yeah I think it was a bit too much. I maybe would have swung 30k his way, 32k at most. It was a blast to test drive though.

Yeah been at it for the past 15 years. Have worked on Rock Band 1 and 2 making guitars and band equipment models for in game, Borderlands designing guns, Mass Effect 2, MK vs DC Universe, and so many more. Since 2012 I have been working on Call of Duty. For a couple years I was at Treyarch and worked on Black Ops 2 and 3. Went to Infinity Ward and have worked on Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare as of late as a vehicle guy.

Some stuff I have built.

Wow that’s some crazy cool kinda stuff. I gather they tell you what is basically needed and you build and get it approved for the game?

I imagine you have printed some of your best work?

Yeah game designers, mission planners, etc come up with what they are looking for in their level/mission and we give them a list of things we have available or we make a new request. At the start of a project we find out the theme, locations, etc so we try to make a pretty good list of things we imagine we will need from the start. It always grows exponentially.


I have SLOWLY been getting my giant 6 wheeled APC that I made ready for printing. Making stuff for games is slightly different in that it doesn't have to be water tight and it isn't always ready to be printed but I would like to make a 1/12 scale version of it.

The game’s design and development is quite interesting. I can imagine having to almost design something new pretty rapidly that’s needed for a mission. A 1/12th scale print can be pretty good sized. Basing it off sizes of RC vehicles. You must have a large object sized printer. Or you can print piece by piece I imagine as many projects are done. cool stuff.

To this day there are very few good quality Raptor print objects out there to be had. Personally would like a decent scale Gen2. Engines from either or both would also be nice to find.

Yeah i have a phenom massive l with a print size of 13.2" x 7.6" x 15.7" I would make the larger pieces of the print (hull) most likely 4 parts that get keyed and glued up.
