[Ryo_Hazuki--san]

Hey dojo! I am a 3d modeler with a Degree in Video game art, and a super Shenmue fan. I have been working on some projects such as 3d printed phoenix and dragon mirrors sculpted in zbrush (almost finished) and this iphone 5/5s phone case! I am just about finished with the model and was wondering if anyone would buy it if i sold it on ebay? I will be doing a test print this week of the model. It should fit like a glove on the iphone, but a test print with photos would be nice. I was just wondering if anyone would be interested and I should print some to put up for sale. also if you have any ideas of what I can model and sell "shenmue or video game related" please Ideas would be nice

Please watch the video below it shows the model and how it will look in its final form.

I dont own an Iphone but I am interested in 3D Printing & Scanning
Im wondering how you got the dimensions for the Iphone to start with , 3D scanner?
Im not sure this design itself is ergonomically good , I can imagine bits of food n fluff falling into the lettering cutout, when a sticker might be a better option.

Personally I'd love some Shenmue action figures or 'Mirrors' but then there is the trademark & copywright issues..

yea i will be doing a test print this week and a durability test for about a week is should be good and super tight no food would get in there i hope lol... also i know about the trademark and all that stuff but i usually create models for personal use but wanted create something for fans of the series.

Honestly, I wouldn't buy it. Not because it looks ugly which is not the case. Just because this merchandise is not from sega or at least Yu's team.
I doubt you have the rights to sell shenmue merchandise and I would recommend not to sell it. Many laywers just waiting for this kind of stuff appears on ebay.
I remember a german seller on ebay who sold N64 game cases with different Nintendo mascots on it. He got a letter from a laywer (from a merchandise company which have the rights to sell nintendo merchandise) and at the end he paid several thousand euros to the company and/or nintendo.

also i know about the trademark and all that stuff but i usually create models for personal use but wanted create something for fans of the series.

So why don't you provide the data for free?
