Posted 2 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I am looking for a talented 3D designer to create a series of 5 Disneyland-inspired hanging lanterns for my personal home Christmas and Halloween light show. Note: important about this project is to make the 3d print look like paper lanterns. I will hang these outside. ***** this post it to make 1 of the 5 lantern ****** when satisfied with the first lantern then will proceed to the remaining 4, total of 5. These are inspired by the colorful lanterns above the Mad Tea Party ride at Disneyland, but they should be original models and not exact copies. I plan to print these on my personal 3d printer so every part must be designed for FDM 3D printing. Project Scope Please design one of the five (5) unique lantern styles: * Round Globe * Beehive * Hourglass * Double Gourd * Pagoda Each lantern should have its own decorative style while matching the whimsical Disneyland-inspired look. Requirements * Maximum overall size: * 360 mm x 360 mm x 360 mm * Designed for FDM printing * Designed using ASA for the main body * Separate translucent PETG panels/inserts for the glowing areas * Hollow interior for LED lighting * Removable bottom cover for maintenance * Integrated hanging loop or mounting point at the top * Wall thickness approximately 2.5–3 mm * Outdoor durable design * Minimize support material whenever possible Lighting The lanterns will be illuminated internally using LED lights. The glowing areas should be separate translucent insert pieces that will later be printed in white or clear PETG and installed into the ASA frame. Please recess the inserts slightly behind the outer frame to give the lanterns a premium finished appearance. Deliverables * Native CAD files (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Blender, etc.) * STL files * STEP files * All components separated for printing * Ready-to-print models Reference Material I will provide numerous reference photos showing the overall style and proportions I am looking for. These should be inspired by the Disney aesthetic, not direct replicas. Future Work This is the first project in a much larger series. I build large Christmas and Halloween displays each year and am looking for a designer for many future projects including: * Steampunk props * Victorian decorations * Gears * Lighting props * Animated decorations * Other custom 3D printable designs If this project goes well, there will be many additional jobs available.
