Kevin Futter Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 This was supposed to be a quick little side project to give me an excuse to print something on my Elegoo Saturn 3D printer, but like most of my projects, dragged on and got more complicated. I decided to try to recreate the metallic effects and overall weathering as close to what we see on screen as possible, and late in the piece, I decided it needed a base for stability purposes. The lettering on the base was cut iwth my Silhoutte Portrait and applied over a white base, and SMS Jet Black applied over the top. Took me 3 goes to get this right! So what was supposed to take a few days has ended up taking a few months, but here it is. Thanks for looking! Now I need to get back to one of my many unfinished aircraft projects!

Mozart Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Not even remotely my kind of thing Kev, but I can most certainly recognise and applaud the work, the techniques and the skill that has gone into creating it….well done my friend! 👋 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Futter Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 Thanks, Max. I had a lot of fun with this one, and the combination of 3D printing and custom paint masks takes the modeller one step closer to being fully self-sufficient.
