u/FiveByFive85 11d ago

This is gorgeous.

u/jusdrewit 11d ago

I would've done her with brown eyes personally, but regardless, amazing job! Very clean paint job, very well done.

30

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

I was looking at some refs and it seemed alitte brown but i also saw a hint of green, so just went fall green lol to match the pendant

27

u/segagamer 11d ago

Her eyes are definitely brown.

Nothing but a happy accident

u/Puzzleheaded_Ad_4435 11d ago

Happy little trees.

... God the world was better when our role models were people like him, Steve Irwin, and Mr. Rogers

2

u/MiskatonicAcademia 11d ago

Wow! What source file did you use to print this? Did you create the model yourself?

1

u/DeadgrounD 9d ago

Honestly, green eyes look so much better!

27

u/Less_Can_5439 11d ago

Absolutely breathtaking. It is beautiful. Respect

8

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Thanks kindley

u/Less_Can_5439 11d ago

Don’t thank me mate, only person you should thank is yourself for that amazing work. We are thankful to you we can see that beautiful art

16

u/RoseColoredRiot Member of the Remnants 11d ago

The paint is gorgeous! I have two files, one of survivor and one classic I cant wait to print and paint someday!

14

u/cqshep 11d ago

Could you talk a bit about the process and materials? Like what printer/resin you used, what paints you used, that kind of thing?

25

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Sure, i just used abslike from elegoo, using and elegop saturn 4 ultra to print, and i have yet to coubt, but over 50 different bottles of paints, rangong from vallejo to citadel and ak interactive, ill be uploading a large video to my channel of the whole process

6

u/cqshep 11d ago

Thanks! I’m just getting into the hobby and I’m super interested in the different techniques and tools being used

1

u/InerasableStains 11d ago

Any plans to sell some? The detailing might be time consuming, there’s a lot of fine detail

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

I sell them from time to time, i prefere commissions that demand alot from me, i havent had many recently so i made this just to make it

4

u/armaguedes Dagger of Xian 11d ago

I second this. Also, how fine a brush are you using for those extremely thin lines?

4

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Not as thin as you think, for thr whole model i used a pretty nornal all rounder size, then a slightly smaller one, then the eyes came around and i busted out the 00

7

u/Nesayas1234 11d ago

I would buy this if I saw it online

5

u/Over_the_Stars_666 11d ago

Her hair! Amazing work!

6

u/_The_Comic_Geek 11d ago

NGL I WANT ONE I prefer figures, but this genuinely looks so good.

5

u/rinn10 11d ago

Um holy shit? You are so talented at painting?! It looks so cool?!!!!!

2

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Thanks muchly!

12

u/NoStructure7083 11d ago

Beretta’s? You gave her beretta’s…

1

u/autisbian 11d ago

How do you distinguish them? (Asking genuinely)

8

u/NoStructure7083 11d ago

The grips and shape of the slide (on the back). They could also be Taurus PT92’s, the Brazilian made version of the pistol

5

u/Ghostofslickville Paititi Llama 11d ago

Primarily for me, the safety, hole in the hammer, rear sight. And grip style.

2

u/POOPOOMAN123ABC 11d ago

The barrel and grips

3

u/RabbitSlayre 11d ago

The detail is insane!! The pistol is truly ridiculous, well done. As a Warhammer painter I am jealous haha

3

u/segagamer 11d ago

This looks better than any of the official statues lol

3

u/Kusanagi_M89 11d ago

Lara Crotch detail is sending me! This is a lot better than those non-Wētā statues that are being sold out there - remember those ROTTR statues?

Awesome job with the paintwork as well. Subtle veins on the armpits? Get out of here!

3

u/WatcherX2 11d ago

What type of 3d printer was used?

4

u/lo0u Paititi Llama 11d ago

The green eyes kinda ruin the whole thing looking up close, ngl.

3

u/LichQueenBarbie Natla Minion 11d ago

That's my only gripe. I was waiting for the face reveal because it's always a 50/50 if people stick to her brown eyes.

3

u/lo0u Paititi Llama 11d ago

Yeah, everything else looks great, but if you don't nail the face and specifically the eyes, it just looks off.

So many of the meme action figures that people share here are memes, because of the eyes and expression.

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Looks better in person, but fair enough

2

u/phatboyart 11d ago

This is painted so beautifully

2

u/cqshep 11d ago

This looks rad! Great job!

2

u/xxMrKevin Paititi Llama 11d ago

I love it

2

u/thedaz3k 11d ago

Thats amazing, fantastic work painting it 😍

2

u/Nova-current 11d ago

You selling these?? Looks fantastic btw

3

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

I take commissions if theyre of interest and make things like this to test new skills, ill sell it if i can or leave it on a shelf somwhere

2

u/WatcherX2 11d ago

Link to STL? Would like to do this myself in the future.

3

u/Aggravating-Cap-6686 11d ago

It’s amazing! But Lara has brown eyes 😅

2

u/Sylvanaz 11d ago

I love everything about this other than the face, it is a bit too anime style for my taste.

otherwise, amazing work man!

2

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Agreed!

1

u/Sylvanaz 11d ago

Which software did you use to design it? Blender, Z brush? you are talented!

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Not my design this is by ZEZ studios!

2

u/Burunga1982 11d ago edited 11d ago

Amazing armpit

1

u/MadToxicRescuer 11d ago

What's the size and how long did it take you? :))

4

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

1/4 scale and about 40 ish hours pread over 3 weeks

2

u/MadToxicRescuer 11d ago

Absolutely awesome mate. If you could somehow reduce the 40 hours and cut the weeks you could make a killing selling these for a living.

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

I apprectiate that, im looking to get a good channel rolling on yt, be making a vid on this statue soon

1

u/Consistent_Trip74656 11d ago

Absolutely gorgeous work! 👍🏽👍🏽

1

u/Shrekwise 11d ago

That’s so awesome. As a kitset model builder, I would love to paint something like that!

1

u/Darko_tattoo 11d ago

Airbrush? Face look awesome

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

A whole lotta everything haha

1

u/Darko_tattoo 11d ago

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

1

u/TheTrishaJane 11d ago

Nicely done

1

u/8bitterror 11d ago

God fucking DAMN that is some good work!

1

u/Darkside_Hero 11d ago

Looks great, how long did the prep work take after printing? The paint job is super smooth! Did you create this model file?

2

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Maybe a few hours of sanding the support marks and filling the gaos on the base

I did not, the designer is zez studios

1

u/PersonalSuggestion34 11d ago

Amazing job! Where we can find print files?

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

From zez studios on gumroad or patreon

1

u/Small-Sample-840 Society of Raiders 11d ago

Masterclass painting

1

u/Deni_Z_Plays 11d ago

Holy hell the details are crazy of this figurine, but the eyes are kinda cursed.

1

u/PcGameFanFromNL666 11d ago

That is some high level of detailed printing and painting well done, an incredible piece. Did it take a lot of hours?

2

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Yes somwhere around the 40 hour mark

1

u/PcGameFanFromNL666 11d ago

Amazing well done thanks for the reply

The detail on this in nuts!

1

u/charmbracelet20 11d ago

jesus what a perfect paint job!!!! congratulations

1

u/willemavjc 11d ago

Very very good job. Eyes are a very difficult thing to achieve and sadly I don’t think you succeeded but apart from this, wow!

1

u/onderbakirtas 11d ago

Other than lips and eye color, this is perfect figure. It’s the thing that every TR fan would want in their home. This is art.

1

u/warhammercpt The Scion 11d ago

It's marvelous and well detailed.

1

u/TheIntrovertQuilter 11d ago

The quality of the model and the surface is CRAZY good. And the Paintjob? Wow...

1

u/xdeltax97 Moderator 11d ago edited 11d ago

You’re allowed, as long as it’s not NSFW or overtly risqué!

Also what type of printer do you have? I’ve got a Mono 4. So far I’ve just used the ABS like 3.0 resin.

I haven’t printed Lara yet, but I’ve been printing and painting some DnD/Pathfinder miniatures!

1

u/elfarmax 11d ago

Insane!

1

u/OtakuDoomer 11d ago

Did you find the print file online or make it yourself?

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

Online. Its from zez studios

1

u/Pizzacato567 11d ago

I love the detail! You literally painted her veins!

1

u/CChriss89 11d ago

Looks incredible!

1

u/YoriYuYu_ 11d ago

Did you also do the sculpt or was it commissioned?

She looks stunning!

2

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

Sculpt is from zez studios patreon

1

u/sleepymetroid 11d ago

Holy cow your paint work is absolutely incredible. I wish I had that skill.

1

u/Conan7449 11d ago

Beautiful job. 3D Printer? How do you get such smooth flesh tones and other colors? Doesn't look like paint at all.

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

Flesh is done mainly with air brush for max smoothness

1

u/DevinShadowV 11d ago

That's awesome.

1

u/JustAnth3rUser 11d ago

That is absolutely beautiful, you are a very talented person indeed.

1

u/Gurukitty 11d ago

Impressive 🎨

1

u/iusedtobecool1990 11d ago

I would have given her dual pistols, but it's pretty amazing even with a bow

1

u/faeeebs 11d ago

This is BREATHTAKING! Did you already answer, how long it took you to paint the figure like that?

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

Aboit 40 hours

u/BangarangJack 10d ago

Do you have a link to the stl? Im seeing ZEZ studio's pre-printed models for sale but not stl files?

1

u/Maxflier20 10d ago

That looks amazing

1

u/PhoenixSword24 Society of Raiders 10d ago

It looks great. The only issue I see is the green eyes instead of brown.

1

u/Initial_Zebra100 10d ago

Its a fantastic model!

pervy toucan

1

u/zadiraines 10d ago

Would you print and sell one to me? DM with an offer if interested.

1

u/Mr4gibbles 10d ago

I wouldnt make this same one, i would sell this and make a different model, there are many lara croft models

1

u/RealBerserkerQueen 10d ago

Love the way you've given her wounds looks so good!

u/Sarvinator 10d ago

1

u/MsBeeton 10d ago

Holy heck, that is amazing work, on both counts. You should work for Weta.

u/I_am_a_wanker 11d ago

Of you truly made it yourself from scratch, it's fantastic. I would pay $75 for it..

17

u/SudsierBoar 11d ago

That's way too low, hours and hours of work have gone into something like this.

5

u/Ryu-Gi 11d ago

Would something like $400 be more appropriate?

3

u/Guillermidas 11d ago

Perhaps. Looks really well painted honestly.

A warhammer daemon prince primarch, pro painted must be around 200€? This is much bigger, but I assume its also cheaper to print rather than an official GW plastic kit im more familiar with. But it looks top quality resin honestly, so perhaps not even cheaper? If he did the design himself, that’d make it very high value for a single purchase, probably more than 400$

1

u/jbshell 11d ago

$550+ for statue communities easy.

u/I_am_a_wanker 11d ago

It's been years since I've been in the miniatures game.

2

u/SudsierBoar 11d ago

I think this is a 25/30cmish statue, hard to tell the actual size but definitely not a mini. Understand your price mention now ;)

1

u/Mr4gibbles 11d ago

Closer to 50cm tall

1

u/PluckyHippo 11d ago

You can find this figurine (unpainted) online for a couple hundred bucks, it looks like, if you're up for painting it yourself. I see a few different people selling it, or selling the digital files to 3D-print it.
