This going to be BAD for my painting back log!

My first large bust (about 1/8th or 1/10th scale) bust of a "Warrior of the Greater Good" from MyMiniFactory. Printed on my brand new Elegoo Mars 2 Pro SLA resin printer and painted with acrylics. Jaw dropping what this thing can do. Though, the print area is small. It is unlikely to replace...

Deal! Once I build something big enough to need those again... I'm pretty sure I won't wait long to find something...

Well, it was still a worth while venture, you showed us an interesting way to produce more tracks!

BTW, the grey lizard running around in the picture up there... Well, that was 3D printed with my new toy!

Primer has been applied! It might have been done by now, but I got distracted by a shiny new 3D printer...

Progress on the legs and feet. Every journey goes one step at a time!

Progress on the legs this weekend! Beefing these chicken legs to be Turkey tough! Not sure they will have tight enough tolerances to pose and be free standing though... but I gave it a shot anyhow. Even if they must be glued in a static pose, it will appear more genuine than the first build!

Not sure if I'll airbrush it or not, this time of year the garage is pretty cold... So I might use my paint brushes like my previous projects. Every time I build a paper vehicle, I do say to myself "This is it, this will be my first airbrush project..." and every time something happens that...

Moving forward with the greebles on the cockpit, and the Lascannon. Florist wire, copious amounts of CA glue!

That tends to be the 40K vehicle design philosophy, that and Inter-War period tanks when they experimented with anything.

Thanks all! Sentinel 2 now is showing off just how armored she is! Here is tonight's progress: Mostly just armor plates, some rivets using the Luer lock and PVA glue. Toothpick bits for hinges. I must say this enclosed armored Sentinel is flying along compared to that first one! Not...

Here is the latest update on the Armored Sentinel build. These paper models are all the more special given the new models released in plastic by GW in their new Cadian boxes. This particular, obviously Star Wars AT-ST inspired, design is now out of production along with the older Cadian troops...

Or the Battletech can come to you!

Next off the bench, the 15mm Urbanmech. Used some floral wire on thos antennae though, as the 3D printing process leaves much to desired on those thin features.

Quick update on my, as yet, unfinished 15mm 3D printed Mechs... Namely, the Hatchetman...errr.... Tinman! My aftermarket Stratos Minis STL scaled up from 6mm to 15mm scale has finally been painted! Well, mostly. I might refine this a bit. Or not. I'll sleep on it. I might, or...

New phone camera, new Sentinel build! Making an enclosed armored Sentinel with a Las cannon this time to be the killer of a tank hunter killer team (with the open stopped being the hunter half of the team). Go figure, I make the model more complicated... I am going to try some paper...

It's a better time than when I started to get involved. 3D printers have dramatically dropped in price, given a second chance, I'd have saved what I spent on my Taz 5 and bought one of the sub $500 resin SLA printers available now instead! Don't get me wrong, the Taz 5 was (IS) a good...

Scaled up the Wolfhound by 250% and got a nice 15mm scale version. Did the same thing with a hex base I found on Thingiverse that was made for the 6mm scale. Turned out pretty epic!

Well, I'm sure we all know those plastic card modelers, and others, who get a little to.... well... elite for the rest of us?
