This look like a lot of fun!
I've been looking at getting some 3D printed stuff for some projects.
Did you have to deal with those gnarly
Horizontal printing lines that the printers leave?
 I know as tech improves the lines are less noticeable.

Thanks guys!.. the print lines were almost none..but it did have a sponge like texture...which I ended up using Mr Surfacer to smooth out the skin and some light sanding...though some areas I sanded too much and eliminated some of the tattoo marks..so I had to go by reference to try and get them somewhat close...not easy...
heres a bit of an update...didnt want to spoil it and show the whole figure yet...but I finished resculpting the eye area....spread them out a bit,made the cheeks a little fuller, and broadened the forehead a bit..got started on the paint too! a boy are those tatts fun...

finally got this one done....fwewwww..that took alot longer than I expected..but I liked the end results..its a great figure. the joints are really loose ,so you have to tighten them up with some supler glue.. she doesnt come with a light saber either..so had to make my own. I just twisted up some floral wire in the drill, and stretched some clear red acrylic rod to make the saber.. the tattoos were a PITA,but I got through it..not exact mind you but theyre there.

very nice.  Did you get the original from shapeways?  How much was it? (if you don't mind my asking)

thankyou guys!  I think the hardest part about the tattoos was figuring out what and where to put them..the model comes with them as raised details,but I sanded off alot of it,especially on the head tails. I bought it from Shapeways, here..and also, was just pointed to the lightsaber set he offers that has her saber in it..didnt realize this, so I get that soon to replace the one I made.

Wow, what a great idea. I like the sound of kits.

Are you talking about the new Boushh Leia? I wonder if she will look too tall beside Han and Boba? Guess you won't know till you get her and put her in there. Off to share.
