Building Everything In Miniature

I have been building models since I was a kid. I mostly build armor models, but I also branch off to everything from aircraft, trains, and tabletop gaming. If you can build it, paint it, and put it on a base, I want to try it.

I enjoy building dioramas, scratch building, and using my resin 3D printer to make my builds come to life.

I hope to take you along, and hopefully inspire you to try different aspects of this amazing hobby. I'm always learning, growing, and trying new techniques to improve my skills. I would never claim to be an expert, I just want to have fun, show my work and process to the community, and continue to learn.

    Nice one 🎉 For the trench it’s globally what I should have to do on my diorama (you can see it on my channel): more variants of woods and not a pre build plastic one. I think I will make it again in the future. Again good job!

    I have a Tamiya 1/35 Kampfpanzer Leopard that had its tracks warped and deformed, and I decided to make a whole new pair of tracks for it. My question, is it possible to 3D print the entire belt or I have to print individual links because the material doesn't have the flexibility to bend the belt?

  • @mattockmodels
    @mattockmodelsАй бұрын

    I've done both actually, Its possible to connect them the slicing software but there's no guarantee that the will bond with each other and might not line up correctly. So what I do is upload them to tinkercad and line them up that way and link them. then I just use the individual links for the bends and sag. Hope that helps!

    Im really struggling with warped parts... what settings do you use?

  • @mattockmodels
    @mattockmodels4 ай бұрын

    Make sure you have enough supports and you angle the print so that the print lines don't run in the same orientation as the longest part, for example if you print a shovel, don't print it as though it is laying flat across the print bed, angle it at a 45 degree angle. Also after the print is cleaned in isopropyl alcohol make sure it has fully dried before curing. Hope that helps, good luck.

    Yeah I had a hard time with it as well. I started with a metal ruler and then decided to use the raised lines as a guide and just eyeballed it. It got easier with practice but overall it wasn't tons of fun. Hope that's helpful, good luck!
