More the "Blood and Chrome" era Galactica, maybe? lol

I have a resin printer, and here are the kind of things I've been able to successfully print, and that I'm happy with. The Fallout guy is kinda cool, but I was able to print him in one piece. Any time I try to print anything that needs to be sliced into separate chunks, slight differences and...

Very cool! That's so much better than I've managed to do with my 3D printer. Is that PLA or Resin?

I started getting back into model building 3 years ago or so, and have gone through various stages with paints. I started with cheap acrylics, thinned with water, in the airbrush. Then I moved to Tamiya acrylics, then started messing with enamels, but had a love/hate relationship with them...

You can't really tell in the pics, but there's some model masters metalizer burnt iron on the engine exhausts...oh and tamiya clear blue on the clear parts.

Hello! I'm in the planning stages on how to paint this Battlestar Galactica model I'm working on - and hoping for some input because I'm likely going to end up layering different kinds of paints. Here's something kind of like the look I'm trying to achieve: I've put the underlaying iron...

And thank you for the suggestion! I bought a few of them to try on the Galactica model I'm building, and so far I really like them. Here's the iron base coat so far.

Yeah, it was weird. That post sat in some limbo state for quite some time awaiting approval.

I like the idea of 3d printing - but I haven't had much luck with it. I got a resin printer last year in order to try printing out my own models. If you manage to merge all the pieces together into a singular model to print - then you get halfway decent results. But I found if I wanted to...
