I've seen a preview elsewhere, it's impressive, alright! But it's obvious that the number of tiny pieces of resin involved would drive a sane man crazy!  :-\

Luckily no-one here is sane, so it can't effect us!  ;D

Nice!  8)

I have a Swedish Army shirt in my wardrobe that's in Splinter Cam with only shades of green, no other colours whatsoever.  ;)

If it works for the grunts it'll work for the armour!  :smiley:

Much appreciated.

Looking forward to seeing the big 3.7” AA gun - it must be an impressive piece!  :smiley:

Everything Swedish is contractually required to wear Splinter Cam!  ;D

Looking forward to the Big Reveal!  :smiley:

Ta daaaaaaa !
Maybe a bit green, reasonably sure it will tone down a bit during the next stages.






Have had two very productive days in the workshop. so things are steaming ahead

Some paint stripped off during the unmasking  >:(
I was using an AK product called Bronze Green Primer. Some sort of acrylic laquer thing. Don't call it primer, if it needs a primer underneath it to start with.

Thanks mate.

To be honest, scratch building a vehicle that is already available in another format seems like a bit of a waste of time, resources and effort.  My FDM printer is far from perfect and perhaps, one day, I will splash out on a resin printer but, until then, it will do for quick turn-around jobs. Sacrilege?   ;)

Fully agree.. probably just getting so used to the magic you can do with some styrene and bits. I have to say that I was this (image the Max Smart this close  ;) close to getting a 3D render of the Saracen to print, when Airfix announced theirs, so as you say, why scratch when you can print.. or wait long enough for an injection kit. I have just finished the Accurate Armour 3.7" AA gun, so stay tuned for a release of that  ;D

Love your work :smiley: :smiley:
