I
had the printer going warm for a while and it is time to show what I have
printed and painted.
This
is the Ruined
Lighthouse from Printable
Scenery. It is, of course, delivered in the form of stl-files, that you use
in your 3D-printer.
I
printed it with 0.2 mm layer height, that I think is perfectly all-right for
models this size. You can see the layering if you go close, but ordinarily you
see a building from a couple of feet away and then… well, who notices really.I used about half a kg of filament on this, costing me around 100 SEK or €10. I think I could lower that if I played around with the settings a bit, but I haven't come that far in my printer-competence yet.
Painted mostly with wall-paints I buy in 0.4 litre cans for less than the price of two
drop-bottles of Vallejo paints. I used a basecoat followed by two to four
different dry-brushings of lighter tones.
This
model will probably also come in a bundle with other ruined buildings rather
soon.
Add a bit of snow and Frostgrave here we come ... or Mordheim.
ReplyDeleteFrostgrave has sort of been the idea here. And now I'm thinking about Rangers of Shadow Deep solo.
DeleteNice building, there will be a Frostgrave solo expansion in the future. That might interest you.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've heard that and am really looking forward to it as I like that system.
