The full sized M29 Davy Crockett finished printing. Only a couple small changes needed for the production model. I will also be sanding, finishing and painting this one.

It's a lot of fun to hold, I love my nuclear son.

Next model kit in the works. 1:1 scale replica of the M29 Davy Crockett. It will be hollow, PETG, and separate the same way the real one did.

The dimensions are correct assuming the antenna dome at the back is part of the over all length (79 cm long 28 cm wide).

There seems to have been 2 versions, one with a smoother casing, I went with the version seen in most pictures. So like all my models there is a bit of wiggle room, however the design is accurate.

I've been raising money to afford some living arrangement changes. Which is why I've been working on more digital products I can sell on my shop for cheaper at higher volumes.

The next one I'm almost done, a 1:1 scale model of the demon core.

I'm going to start selling STL files for printing on my shop (not my kits but things made to be sold as STLs).

First up I have the American and soviet minimalist rocket statue sets I made a while ago. Cheap little trinket things just for fun.

I guess I will add another level in the pole cone. A Reban as size comparison.

I am currently OBSESSED with Hero Forge. I made minis for my Wednesday night #TTRPG group, and now I'm making NPCs. This is a Fremen I'm working on.

I remember using Hero Forge years and years ago, and all the features they've added are REALLY nice. Like, just being able to repose the mini and having fine control over arm and hand positions is so, so cool.

I started using my A1 mini with a 0.2 nozzle to print tiny parts for my model kits. For example, I still print the turret bases for the Orion nuclear space battelship with the Ender 3, but the barrels are printed on the A1 mini. They come out so good.

First part of the drop capsule finished printing. I'm fairly pleased with how it came out. Lots of payload space.

Virgil is such an odd vehical, but I do love it and wish it was real despite everything about it being stupid.

Some retro Necrons done up for games of Grimdark Future: Firefight! I tried to paint them in a period-appropriate way with drybrushed silver and gold, with ink washes and pearl greens to make the details pop. #MiniatureMonday #MiniaturePainting #3dPrinting #Wargaming

In progress custom orders this week. The Sunfish AUV, the Iron Mole from "At Earths Core", and Virgil from "The Core".

Currently printing off the rest of Virgil as well as detail parts for the Sunfish AUV. The drill on the Iron Mole and impellers on Virgil spin, I'm pleased about that and hope the client is as well.
