3D Print and Paint a Clone Wars Republic Gunship | Star Wars Legion
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I love the Republic Gunship LAAT from the Clone Wars. This is from Dark Fire Designs and I 3D printed and painted the gunship to match those in the Siege of Mandalore. It has LED lighting and the diorama will follow but painting all the clones for it is taking some time and the printer is still churning out the base...
The gunship is a mix of these two sets of files:

When I was a kid, I had the Republic Gunship LAAT ship from the Clone Wars (I think it was the animated 2003 version, because it had a monster mouth on the front) but just watching you click all the pieces together reminded me of how the ship got put together because I think it is the exact same. The wings clip on, then the rockets on top. Good memories. Also, you should make that variant, with the monster mouth, because that thing was cool. Also, also, great job with the model! It looks amazing!

Love your work. One thing, though. You should try filling holes and seams with resin instead of putty. Just drop some on and use a HV torch/ flashlight to harden it. Then it’s exactly the same surface material.

If you mask off around the area you apply the Tamiya putty to, you will have a lot less sanding to do, and you are at a much lower risk of damaging the surrounding decals. Also, when you polish clear parts, ignore the Tamiya polish compounds. Just use plain white toothpaste and a paper towel as your last step. That will buff everything to a crystal clear shine.
@KathyMillatt
Жыл бұрын
Thankfully, I placed the supports on areas where I could just sand flush. I use the masking tape trick on things like brickwork and is is a great time saver. I have the polishing compound so will give it a go. After owning it for years, it deserves some use!

That, Kathy, is magnificent. Love the gunship and the clone wars series. Always wanted a decent size kit of the gunship but they never produced one. The only ones I got are the piddly little ones revell done. Can’t wait to see the dio. Wish I had the space for a resin printer so I could make this and more to go with my Star Wars ‘legion’ and ‘assault’ figures. Wonderful work as always….can’t wait for the next vid.
