[BFG] 3D Printed Grey Knight Fleet Project (Small Craft Update!)

Im in awe here. Not sure if Shapeways will be able to do the design the full justice it deserves, but this is pretty mindblowing anyways.

It should work out, I made the Stormbird twice the size of the others, so it's about 20mm long as opposed to everything else that's just 10mm.

Finally got around to putting the order through after a while so I just got the Small Craft prints in;



Haven't been able to fully inspect them yet but from what I've seen so far everything is looking good! hopefully I'll get them cleaned up tomorrow and get one or two of each painted up over the weekend!

[Malika]

Ooh nice! Now get them painted!

[MetalCoreKnight]

Well, now I have about 150 assorted small craft to paint but I'm taking a few small steps at least!

Sweeeet!  you're inspiring me to go put paint on me own small craft.

Thanks! I feel like I'll be needing some Inspiration as well eventually, I got so much BFG stuff to paint! xD

[MetalCoreKnight]

First Batch painted!





Still a looooong way to go but baby steps!

Nice. I like the fact that they are full of colour.

Maybe some few enlightenments ?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by 'enlightenments', do you mean close-ups or something painting related?

[Chios]

Really nice! Well done!

[marell le fou]

I mean add light to your painting job, yeah.

If you mean as in Highlighting I dunno, it's not something I usually do, usually just on darker bits like the guns here but for these in particular I do a lot of washes so I kinda let that build up the depths and make some more subtle highlights.

Also Side note, I've done and painted up another Cruiser but no picture because it basically looks the same as the other six so......yeah.....

Spent the day taking and editing photos of my ships and things for Shapeways. If you want a sneak peak you can take a look at this Album in Imgur.

Wow, awesome stuff! By the way...what about something more Battlebarge sized?
