Thanks! That's your handy work isn't it? The prints came out pretty good considering I'm still in my infancy in the whole 3D printing world. I'd start playing with layer thickness and the such if I start running my layout with a magnifying glass. For the color, I printed in gray, hit them with a coat of Dulcote the hand painted with some cheap acrylic from Michales.


Ever time I buy Plaid paints I'm disappointed - it always comes out as a solid color. Da-boom tisssssss.

And for that you’ve lost a week of Plaid membership.

I have the same frustration with Rustolem camo paints.
