I agree with Zac the hammer you could fudge, but the axe bits seem Large for non true scale models. Now I would use them as my stuff is true scale.....
but overall Ace work guy!!

A katana I'm working on, the camera angle makes the handle look a bit oval. I'll also be doing a No-Dachi which is a larger two handed version. The current sword is scaled to 32 mm from end to end and is about 2.5 mm thick. The No-Dachi version will likely measure about 40mm long.

Very cool. Looks a little stubby with such a large hilt. Plus I think the hilt could do with a better texture like a criss-crossing pattern.

Redid the hilt and grip. Still needs a bit more touch up work to make it an oval shape as oppsed to square but the main details are all in place.
This is actually the second version, I lost about 2 1/2 hours of work when Maya crashed while I was trying to take a screenshot and had to rebuild it all. Stupid me for not saving more often oops. This one took about an hour as I pretty much had everything figured out after doing the first mesh.

Just about done, a few minor touch ups needed on the tip of the blade and it should be good for printing.

Being that the katana was complete it was a fairly simple job to resize it to get the other weapons.
From top down:
Ogre-Dachi 65mm for 54mm scale models
No-Dachi 40mm two handed great sword for 30-40mm models
Katana 33mm for 30mm models
Wakazachi 26mm for 30mm models

I did a bunch of digging around on some 3-D model sites and ran across this juicy bit. While it looks good in renders it's not currently suited for printing and has a bunch of geometry errors but I'm going to have one of my friends take a crack at cleaning it up and see if we can get it converted into something more useable for printing. (also going to need a rifle)

That looks awesome.
What scale are you thinking? Is is re-posable?

Scale can be adjusted pretty easy to be whichever size we're so not limited to just one size. Could easily do it at 15mm-54mm with out any issues. Although at smaller sizes it'll lose some detail.
It's sort of poseable, right now there's a ton of differant parts but each one needs to be moved and adjusted manually so it's a royal pain. Once we get the parts cleaned up we can rig it with a skeleton for movement that way it won't require adjusting every single part by hand.

Highly awesome! The Terran Marine is one of the best exo-armour designs. Ever.

it looks cool but not sure how realistic or effective it would be. Has an awful lot of exposed cables/ hoses, be a shame to get a mission kill from small arms fire hitting the gut/ groin area.
