You mean, like this? https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-space-epic-transport-204101


I managed to get some more work done on my Warmaster. He's essentially done. I just need to add decals, freehand and maybe some weathering in certain areas. Plus neaten up the mistakes that the close up pictures have pointed out to me  :facepalm:






Shoulder weapons and little AA/Mortars are also magnetised.





Oh well. Best get cracking :D

Thanks mate, that's appreciated :) Maybe when they release an Emperor I'll be happy with my painting. HAH! as if.... I still have 6 Warlords, 2 Reavers and 2 Warhounds to go for this force anyway.  :-\

I now have to go back and redo the bases for my other titans now though. As on their bases the stone/rocks were painted the same colours as the sand.

Oh well!! ::)

Erm, yeah, it's certainly not quick. But it's not that bad now I've decided to spray the armour separately with Corax white. Then it's just a thin coat (or two) or Corax white and White and then highlighted up with white.

The black takes the most work. That's about 7 layers.  :o

Indeed yes. Considering the size of these models a white scheme really makes them pop!

Oh my!! No I haven't seen that but I did know he'd bought it off me. Thats ace though.


He messaged me a while back saying that he wants to sell my models on his site, with some custom 3D parts for them. But I'm still pondering it.  :-\

EDIT: I'm not sure I like the "modelling senior" bit. I'm not that old lol.  ::)

lols, got to the point where it feels like im older than everyone these days! LOL my niece saw a video cassette in a second hand shop and asked, "whats this?" (facepalm)

anyway, regarding the model sales/hosting I'd say follow your inital gut instict of (unless I'm mistaken, here) no.
its best to err on the side of caution with these endeavours as there are many things that could go wrong.
one of which is seeing your lovely designs getting diluted with other things. Yes, I know that sounds petty, but it is still a factor to consider, lots of time and effort went into them and they are part of your artistic expression and all that jazz...
also, when selling your own products, often, creatively, the best hands are your own.
last thing you want is a load of piss-poor recasts giving your dhips a bad name. just remember those bad recasts of Admgr's 'razor' Light cruisers that you and I got hold of. savage mould slip on the keels and they had also been printed at too high a scale, making them rather large for light cruisers and that really spoilt what was +/- a  damn good model.
I know its potentially a great opportunity but I'd be on the fence is all...

don't mean to be captain negative here,
just food for thought from a bitter old curmudgeon... ;)
