And...I'm back. I haven't had anything to post, apart from 3D prints. I still don't really, but thought that I ought to post something anyway.
At the moment I'm getting myself sorted for the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge which begins in just over a week. That has meant getting the various bits together for my main project. Then deciding that I need to reprint some of them. There are a couple of parts that I'm having a big problem with; hopefully I'll finally get them right this week.
I ordered some more primers and paints and they arrived a few days ago:
3D Printing
I've carried on with printing Traveller cargo containers, in between printing other things.
Standard Containers:
Sealed Containers:
Controlled Environment Containers:
I've also printed some alternative partitions and bulkheads for the Type S Scout Courier with the doors fused in place - they should be easier for painting.
The Beowulf Kickstarter campaign I backed has released the ship files and also most of the stretch goals - not bad when you consider that it's less than a month since the end of the campaign. I've been printing some of the smaller items.
Grav Bike, Emergency Low Berths & Air Raft Van
Well, that's all for now folks!
That's a lot of printing done Tamsin, and good luck in the challenge.
ReplyDeleteCheers! :)
DeleteSome terrific prints there, Tamsin, which definitely show off the pros to a filament printer. I too am a big fan of the speed in which you get your rewards for backing STL kickstarters - plus there's no outrageous additional costs for postage suddenly thrown your way six months after the campaign's end, LOL!! Looking forward to seeing these painted up during the Challenge. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's not always the case - a lot of kickstarters for STLs don't have all the files ready to go for the main items, let alone stretch goals. 2nd Dynasty aren't like that - they always have the main parts ready before the campaign starts; this time they also had the majority of the stretch goals ready for when the money cleared. :)
DeleteI think the printing is getting better, those look crisp and neat. (I would be tempted to replace the stem under the Grav Bike with a transparent sprue tho') Good to see you posting again!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I went with a lower layer height (=higher quality/smoother surface) for these. :)
DeleteThose containers and the Rampant fighter are lovely.
ReplyDeleteCheers! I'm hoping that they will do the twin-seat variant of the Rampart as well. :)
