Nice work Ian, your propeller is looking very good. Saw these on a quick search

Thanks Joe I've had a look at there site, and there's a great range to look at.


And with a link to a post by Graham about modeling we were talking about 3D printing in modeling and this is the way it's going to be.

[Guest]

I am having to remind myself how tiny these are; the level of detail fools me.

Well I've managed to get them painted. I couldn't quite get the eyes right so I opted for them wearing goggles.  9_9

That's the way to go.


Nice simple blocking in of the colour's,suit's the scale just fine.

 

[monica]

nice work with these two,looking good Ian,

 

[Guest]

I agree; pilots look just right.

 

[yak face]

The pilots look brilliant Ian , especially considering theyre about the size of ants!!!! They look very well detailed for the scale , i didnt realize these 3d printers could do things that small ! Youre going to have to do something big after this build to get youre eyes uncrossed!!! Cheers tony

 

[colin m]

wow, looking great, just the rigging to do now then !
