BTR-152 3D printing 1/16

[tankme]

And the most tedious process began for me - preparation for puttying ...
The surface sucks
Treated the surface with primer...
All the jambs of 3D printing came out like earthworms after the rain...
I made old-style armored shutters.
well now a pound of putty and a yard of sandpaper

That's why I don't really like 3D products.

Same reason I hate 3D printed parts.

My friend does not share my opinion, he uses a new generation machine, for a lot of money ....
Yes, the surface is much better, but I don't like "a little pregnant."

[Pavel]

Finished surface grinding...
My fingers are already sore from the monotonous reciprocating motions (don't get me wrong).
What you see is not winter camouflage .....
Now coating with a developing layer, identifying the remaining flaws, puttying and cleaning ...

[Captain Morgan]

Saw Shura, they are golden! (?)

[Pavel]

I showed the sanded surface with a layer of paint, I will close up small cavities again and sand again ...

[Pavel]

Four times I put putty on cavities that appeared out of nowhere, sanded ......
Then I could not stand it and redid the footrest ....
Yes, there must be holes in it - this is a stamped iron sheet.

[Herr Dr. Professor]

You are a patient person, and your work is showing its excellence. You also have a great sense of humor--even in translation from your first language.

That last picture looked well weathered !!
Love your work & cant wait to see it finished

[Pavel]

Herman has a sense of humor....
Pre-painted so as not to spoil the eyes from this magical camouflage ....
It's not all that bad.....
Collected in order to see how it turns out in a first approximation ...
While I’m working on the headlights, then I’ll put a muzzle on them like for a dog, I’ll shove a red lantern from behind ....
Yes, the position of the tow hook is exactly this "on the stowed"
Still plenty of work...
For my grandson I built a fire boat with a water jet and a water cannon, and car a 90s Lamborghini from Uncle Liao,
The son played like that, now the grandson will.
