Pretty happy with how the test prints turned out; for reference, they're sitting on a 10 mm grid. The bottles look matte because the voxels are sharp (acting like the diffuser in a fluorescent light), they should go nice and transparent if you give them a wet coat of clear gloss. Could even tint the gloss to get the proper colours!

I think I'll need to adjust and exaggerate some of the details, I suspect some of them will get lost under paint. They all printed successfully though, even the tiny little clasps! I might take a few days to adjust the drawings and try again, but I think we're going places! I'll crunch some numbers to come up with prices, but they won't be expensive.
How are you going with the pricing Mr Ram ?
I'm hanging on tight for these i can tell ya

I'm thinking $1.00 each for the MG ammo drums, $2.50 for a 125 mm crate, $0.50 each for the water/wine/coke bottles, $1.00 for a water cooler bottle. I've got some more clear resin coming this week, so I should be able to scale up production soon!
They go properly transparent with a clear coat, I borrowed some of my wife's Winsor and Newton alcohol inks to tint the test prints earlier today.

I tinted these after clear coating, but they'd have turned out a lot better if I'd tinted them beforehand instead. I think a few drops of ink or paint in clear varnish would probably be the best approach, you'd be able to layer up the colour properly then.

I reckon you might as well tint them pre-sale mate !!
A stellar job
Being the fussy and demanding child I am.............any chance of squashed water bottles !!??
