Paint Table Saturday 03 September 2022

 As you can see I'm set up ready to start painting some figures. It will be the Waffen SS as I want to get at least the infantry done before the end of this month.

I finished priming the new figures this morning:

Then sorted out the riflemen and extra MG42s to fill out squads and support teams:

Core Platoon plus a few supports

Supports

Looking at what I have, there are a few more figures I need to get - I need a few extra SMG chaps and could use a flamethrower team and an AT gun (and crew). I also need something to make up a third Jump Off Point.

3D Printing

I've printed another Traveller ship but haven't finished assembling it so no photo today. I have however printed another 28mm starfighter:

I'll need to do a bit more clean-up of this one as the humidity has gone up and is causing some issues with the filament (you can see some "zits" on the photo above). I think I'm going to invest in a filament dryer as this isn't the first time I've had problems.

I also printed this last night:

"I AM the Law!

After running all these test prints to work out the best way of printing these:

The customisable file I used isn't the best, but it is the easiest to use that I could find. I do have a Dredd badge ready to print after the next two Traveller ships and eventually a helmet and maybe some other props (no, I don't have any plans for doing cosplay - they'll just be for display!).
