@blinky465 – I absolutely agree – the stuff coming out is so good ; apart from the resin not being cured properly (someone rushed), luckily I knew how to cure it, the models were so close. If you look in the photo in the link, the far right is the only real GW model. The intakes stand out as smaller on the prints, but other details … so m…[Read more]

The original model was a kev adams sculpt, but he did it for gw and they own the character. The miniature in the kickstarter is extremely close and noone can say they didn’t know they were trying to recreate a very slightly altered version of the character including his grot chum with banner. I am not at all surprised. Most of kevs sculpts have…[Read more]

@grantinvanman – I think this is a big part of it now; the difference between a print-at-home 3d resin mini and a “genuine” plastic mini is almost imperceptible. You have to look really hard, and know what you’re looking for, to tell them apart these days.

I’ll add this: I painted three Falcon/Wave Serpents earlier this year for my Harlequin commission. One of the three was a real GW model, two were 3D prints. The prints were SO CLOSE, you can only tell minute differences.

You be the judge:

Finished! Gems done. On to troupers…

Now, at the time, GW was sold out of the new combined W…[Read more]

Nice, Skadis is what I have on one face of my paint room, and along half a wall of my guitar room. Very handy stuff!

Cool you were able to find a printable file to hold paint pots, too.

Finally managed to get that bit of Skadis from Ikea up on the wall, pretty impressed with its stability of it and the quality. First Citadel Paint pot sized print design failed on the hooks but second try I tried a model set with separate hooks and main body. Hooks did not want to fit without some hammering so I will likely scale them down a bit…[Read more]
