Re: Surprise
As you can see it’s 2 of the same one. 1 is the only survivor of the first print, the other is 1 of 3. There’s a tiny bit of light sanding to do here and there but all in all they have turned out well

Re: Surprise
Those figures look like a great printing project, not just as a test, but for their own sake. I'm jealous!

Re: Surprise
They look very nice! Great detail on the boots, gear, hanging straps, and SMLE's. Helmets look a bit odd, but photos are always hard to judge by. What's the new resin printer brand/model you're dialing-in?Exhibitedbrute wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2024 12:33 pm As you can see it’s 2 of the same one. 1 is the only survivor of the first print, the other is 1 of 3.

Re: Surprise
The helmets look odd because they are not fixed they can be removed

There is a surprise 2 in progress. It is something I am printing my dad for Christmas. It will be a little late but these things take time

Re: Surprise
I am amazed the rifle slings survived removal and clean up. I find it hard just to breathe around those kinds of rifle slings!
Re: Surprise
That's a great looking Matilda. Just a heads up in case you're unaware, those armored idler guards were an Australian modification from the Pacific theater. The Japanese couldn't penetrate the hull so targeted the idlers and turret rigs of the tank instead. You won't need them if you are modelling a British tank.
