Since there seem to be at least two other modelers, let's make a scale model thread. >what are you building? >do you have a focus topic? >are you 3d printing? I will post my humble attempts ever since I started again. Third attempt in 20 years, but now I'll probably stick with it. Every model I try something new, like pigments on the Schneider cannon and custom parts (handles made from wire instead of the horrible, horrible molded ones that were on the model). Right now I am building a deHavilland Tiger Moth, as mentioned in another post in the tank thread, which will be a first for (serious) RIGGING.

>>12653 Perry Miniatures also always come with great reference material in the box. They're really realistic for that small scale, not too comic-like and all handsculpted. I have their entire 1415-1429 and 1450-1500 range but they also have Franco-Prussian War, American Civil War etc.

Want to try some Eduard kits like pic rel and they're too good to mess up with my Vallejo crap. Spraying anything other than waterbased inside is unfortunately not an option because pets.

>>13424 >Are you using the recommended slicing parameters for the resin you use? Yes, at least what I could gather from the net. But I didn't buy some ultra super duper pro tier resin just to start out. It's 3DJake ecoResin. I thought I could do some cheap test prints to learn stuff (such as what the fuck to do with all that gooey residue) before I use something more expensive to print minis and parts and such.

>>13457 3D printing is quite easy when you have found the right settings. I make my own 3D models and it was extremely hard in the beginning. Even minor issues with topology etc. can mess up the whole print.

de Bernd 2025-09-30 17:07:10 No. 13464
>>13462 Well, I am doing 3D modelling for like 15 years now. But making models for renderings or game engines is an entirely different thing. Trigons or flipped surfaces, for example, are most of the times irrelevant when importing your models into a game engine. But when printing they will most likely kill your print.

>>13464 > irrelevant when importing into a game engine Things seem to have changed in the past 15 years. I remember that it mattered with Microsoft xna, depending on the file format.

Tamiya sells plastic RC tanks for a good 1k per piece. They have a rather big RC car department, so the combination between tank modellers and RC enthusiasts was just natural for them. I personally don't care for anything above 1:48, so I never got me one.

>>14424 I did that for smaller scale longbow strings, the problem is that the Bf 109 E-4 antenna wire wouldn't look right if it's 100% straight and also needs these cone-shaped insulators to put the wire through with a small drill (according to a YouTube tutorial I'll try to replicate when I get around to it). Spitfires are so much simpler.
