DBFZ Yamcha and Ten cookies...done!!!

Soo I've been on a mission to recreate the Yamcha and Ten cookies from dragon ball fighterz because they're adorable...and they're finally real!! :'D process and info below! (kind of long lol)

I saw someone share these screencaps from the game a while ago and as someone who never played DBFZ I was so charmed at how cute these things are. I wondered if anyone had ever made cookie cutters for them, did a quick search and didn't really find anything, so just kind of moved on.

A few months later I remembered them again and was like, man, I really would love to see these brought to life lol. And I searched again and actually found someone who made them!!... But they weren't selling them anymore. 😭💔

^Reddit post from user ShadowLord898.

So in the next few days I went into the DBFZ game files, figured out how to navigate them and locate/open the proprietary file types (took...a lot of googling), and eventually found the cookie textures!!! Which I then painstakingly traced over to create vectors.

I thought once I had the vectors, it would be easy to drop them into a 3D program and extrude them to make the cookie cutters. BOY WAS I WRONG!!! It's probably just my inexperience working with vectors in 3D programs, but I tried Blender, Fusion 360, and Tinkercad and had problems in each one before finally figuring out the right approach. (I really almost gave up 🤧 but I hadn't realized that your geometry/topology don't need to be perfect when 3D modeling for print as opposed to, like, something you plan to create a texture for.)

Tinkercad and its extremely user friendly interface, plus SVG import functionality, saved me.

Oh then I realized I forgot to reverse the design, which you have to do for a cookie cutter because of how they work. I thought I would need to flip all the vectors and re-import them, recreate the models... but thankfully there's a "flip" button in Tinkercad. Fixed.

I sent the files over to my friend @.theprocrastinatingengineer on Instagram, who has a 3D printing service, and he was able to print them out for me!

While I was waiting for them to ship I downloaded Cura ("slicer" program for preparing 3D files for print) just for fun. (I was really eager...)

And here's when I finally got them!!!

Despite choosing all the dimensions carefully, I was still surprised how dainty they were when I actually held them in my hand. I wasn't sure if they would work...

So I made the dough and everything, used some 5mm thick chopsticks as guides to roll out the dough to the thickness I wanted. I put plastic wrap over the dough to prevent the cutters from directly touching the dough due to food safety concerns. Here is my first attempt to use them:

After this my mindset quickly shifted from caring about food safety to "what's a little more plastic in my system?" / "I'm here for a good time, not a long time!!" / "welll the dough gets baked anyway so that kills the germs it should be fiiine" **I Do Not recommend others to be so careless... also important note: I was the only one eating these so I didn't have to worry about others' safety 🥴

^The difference between using the cutters with and without the plastic wrap.

This first rolling out of the dough was actually a little too thick; in my design I hadn't accounted for the way the dough squishes up when you press the cutter into it. There wasn't enough vertical space at all, and the dough kept getting stuck in the cutter. It was a bad time!!! (didn't get a lot of photos of the failures here because my hands were covered in flour)

After lots of broken cookie cutouts, re-flouring the surface/cutters/rolling pin, and re-rolling the dough to be a bit thinner, I managed to get these out. I had to support Ten's head like a newborn when moving the dough onto the cookie sheet because the connection to the body was so delicate 😢

AND HERE THEY ARE...fully baked and ready 🥹

For the most part I was going to leave them undecorated like how they are in the game. But @.lamichicuenta made this really cute drawing of the cookies where Yamcha had chocolate decorations and Ten was a salty cracker, and I really wanted to try decorating some to resemble those!! Here are the photos of both versions of the cookies the next day once I was able to get some natural light for nicer pics.

(I meant to poke some holes in Ten's cookie to look more like a cracker but I forgot about it until they were already baking.)

They tasted fine...yamcha was better thanks to the chocolate. 🤭

If you read all this, thank you for following my cookie cutter journey... 😌🙏💖

Oh yeah and I made the vectors, 3D print files, and specs/info all available in a google drive folder here for anyone to use if they want! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hQ7uq3leYPK64pGgt3LhFw-70IZnkYzh?usp=drive_link

OH and one last thing, i ended up revising the 3D models to hopefully fix the issue of not enough vertical space. ...turns out I hit the maximum for photos and videos in this post, but you can see it on my twitter here! https://twitter.com/freezebobs/status/1875720926840680678

I didn't get to try these revised models, but they are the ones I put in the drive folder. 😊👍

I finally got a bunch more art on my wall!! :D So expect me to get even less done now while I just stare at all of it lol

(Also if anybody is uncomfortable with this lemme know and I'll take it off my wall!)

Something i can't stop thinking about is someone signing thank you to me. I don't know why but it sticks in my mind more than customers saying thank you normally does. And typing this out I think helped me realize why. I don't know why they were signing, I don't know if they were deaf or mute or both, I just know their order was communicated to me through their notes app and pointing. I don't know if they could hear me so I tried pointing and showing numbers on my fingers where possible. They probably knew I would have no clue what they said in sign but they still said thank you (the only bit of sign outside of numbers and some swears I know). They did it when it wasn't as necessary because most wouldn't know either way. Yeah politeness either way but idk it's in my brain

hello this is john printer. good luck with the storm and the next couple of years in general. whatever may transpire, do not lose sight of the importance of fictional men making out, because when things get tough, fujoing out helps surprisingly often. with that, i do sincerely root for 2025 being your year.

oh yeah good morning tumblr

here's a little reminder to eat at least three meals and to make sure most of them have some of the essential nutrients your body needs to survive!!!!

if you don't like veggies you can probably find a way you do like them since there is just so many ways to prepare them

pb&j is a good source of a lot of stuff

if you cannot eat something then there will always be another way to get the same nutrients - ex. if you cant eat meat for whatever reason you can get your protein from other things like beans and lentils! Which both have lots of ways they can be prepared so you can mess around to figure out what you like!

also there are proper amounts for calorie intakes based on your person and you NEED calories to survive especially if you are very active!!!

So eat properly, do something active you enjoy, get sleep, and make sure you still ass things you enjoy into your every day life because being happy is very important and you deserve it!

some other things my health teacher has mentioned in the past weeks:

Exercise so you are able to do things not so you look really jacked like some kind of actor!!

There is no such thing as a "perfect" body, just have it so YOU are comfortable with your body and how you dress etc

AHEM -!

Here's a printable Kraft mac & cheese box that I scanned. I'm using it to make earrings. It's probably also good for if your kids have one of those pretend kitchens.

Secret third thing, order groceries online and then go pick them up

ngl im such a geezer about shopping: i really like being able to see and hold products in my hand, especially if they're produce (╯▽╰ ) plus impulse purchases are funny.... lmao... and sometimes i dont realize i need something until it's too late.. tho ig you can argue that i'll buy everything on my list and then peruse when i get there....

IN ANY CASE the people have spoken. i will go out today. again <3 thanks team <3 !!
