Ender's Game Battle School Model

[Boothby171]

Hopefully, I'll have a chance to update it in the next few months...really do it up right, like Darian's drawing in the "Authorized Ender's Companion"

[Boothby171]

Thanks!

[AgentFour]

That's incredible

Good job

[maggosh]

Not bad. I approve.

[Boothby171]

Why, thank you very much!

:)

[maggosh]

You're welcome.

I'm just wondering; how did you get a design of the Battle School?

[Boothby171]

I created it. After having read EG, I decided to lay out the basic design. I (along with two others) actually presented this design at an "Ender's Game" convention in Utah a few yeras back.

[maggosh]

Huh. Neat. I've been thinking of making an Ender's Game brickfilms, and this could be useful.

[elliemonkey]

"Brick films"??? I assume you mean "Lego" films? (What do I know!)

I take it you've seen my trailer, then...

[maggosh]

Yes, I mean LEGO films, but Brickfilms have become almost a household name, from my perspective.

And I don't see a trailer on your account...

@maggosh

The blue prints for Battle School are in the book Encyclopedia of the Ender Universe.

[Boothby171]

Search on YouTube for "Z-Corp". I used one of those. First, of course, I had a 3D CAD model (I created) of the two interlinked parts.

[bmceddie]

how you get that made?

[Boothby171]

Yeah, yeah, yeah...what <i>is</i> "Stereolithography" these days, anyhow? The phrase "3D Printer" is just a cute catch-phrase for people who can't pronounce or spell "stereolithography," anyhow (IMHO)

[tritop]

Z-corp builds 3d-printers not Stereolithography machines (unfortunatelly)

[Boothby171]

Hey, I've got a limited budget, you know!

[malisatomiko]

Heh, thanks. Wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I said "real", but it works pretty well. :P
