I've been seeing some really nice 3D printed droids in the C-3PO builders Facebook group, and I've decided that I need to get in on this. The models by Jesse_M seem to be the most popular, so thats what I'll be using. My printer is a CR-10, and I used CC3D PLA Silk Gold filament. Model was sliced into 0.2mm layers using Cura.
I just finished printing the head! Each of the halves took around 2 days to print, and it took about 1 day to print all the greebles.

Unfortunately, it doesn't fit my head. I think if I scaled it up about 5% and reprinted it, I could wear it. I think I could get away with making it a little bigger, it looks pretty small next to the other buckets:
