3D model history
The legendary Lord Vader is a character that does not need an introduction! Throughout decades, Anakin Skywalker served as one of the biggest mascots of the Galaxy Far, Far Away - his tragic corruption arc inspired countless new stories, his lines turned into quotes most people know by heart, and his looming dark image remains as iconic and celebrated today. Every respectable Star Wars and 3D printing fan cannot go without a 3D printed Lord Darth Vader model!
Meet your favourite character in the best 3D printable form that will wrap you in nostalgic feelings. The author of the Lord Darth Vader 3D print model drew inspiration from various depictions of Darth Vader across the years, including the fresh appearance in the Obi-Wan Kenobi TV series. The villain is encased in the meticulously detailed suit of life-sustaining armour, and the gorgeous cape is fluttering in a swing of motion. While standing on a decorative platform with his lightsaber at ready, Darth Vader extends his hand toward you. Will you join his side?
