Hey All,

Long time no see. Won't repeat what we've all said & heard before - busy with life... wife & kid, life life life. Hopefully things have gone well for all of you like they have for me :)

Not much time for video games but I frequently think back on good memories of Allegiance. I'm a hobbyist maker and like to fiddle around with 3d printing (soon CNC) and wanted to share a project I just started. It's V1 but I'll try and post some updates as I go along. Comments appreciated!




- IC int, but you knew that
- Wings a bit thin, model was a direct export from Alleg so will need to adapt to make the print less fragile
- Front gun snapped off when I was cleaning off supports, so need to beef that up too
- Gonna back up the int a bit more into the smoke... can't tell from the pic but could be more "realistic"
- TBD paint strategy for the flames


Past that just wanted to say hi, even though it's been a while I'm sure there a lot of familiar names around. If any other old farts wanna shoot the @#(!, that'd be a great use of the thread too.

Been so long since I've been able to get on here, I've forgot where all the damned forum buttons were :o

Looks awesome, TB!
I mean, other than the fact that in its current state it looks like it's defecating shaving cream, I definitely see the potential ^.^

Cool TB, glad to hear you're doing well,

I too would like to get some cnc action, for wood projects

Yeeeap that's fair haha. Easily my worst skill is painting things, but this makes it less "farting a cloud"...



Nothing special overall but it'll be a cool token of my fav game all time.

Yep, exact same. Wanted one for a couple of years now, but I have a project or two that I'm going to blame for "needing" one. Yeah, that's it :lol:

Great work TB!
Once you get things perfected, I would like to put on an order for a BIOS fighter.
Yes I am serious and would pay to get one.

Hey Thalgor, always good to see an old timer on the forums.

Hey Thalgor, always good to see an old timer on the forums.
I'd consider it as a favor for someone who did so much for the community. I'm not looking to sell any as the cost I'd charge to make it worth my time would be more than my bush-league stuff is worth :)

Do you (or anyone else) know which model the Bios fighter is? I skimmed through the models I have around but couldn't find that one.

That said, I have a huuuuuge backlog of other stuff to print so it might be a while. I'll ping ya when I get some time to look into it more.

Thanks TB,

I am in no rush so take your time.
In the mean time I will see if I can figure or find out what model is the Bios fighter.

Regards

That's really cool! Nice little unique trinket to remember Alleg. I like that not many people would know what it is :)
