British Jeep (15mm, 3d print)
« on: February 05, 2021, 09:30:20 AM »
Next out of the Mars and off the painting desk is this 1:100 scale (15mm) Jeep. The vehicle was modeled by the estimable Mr. Bergman, and the crewmen added by yours truly.


This is another repeat print; I've printed it before on my Ender 3 (http://mojobob.blogspot.com/2020/01/jeep-1100.html). Now that I can see the detail I've modeled into the crew figures, I can see some areas where they're lacking. It would be good, for example, if they didn't look quite so much like identical twins — Tweedledum and Tweedledee. Also, being soldiers, perhaps it would be a good idea if they were actually armed.

I think this looks really good - some nice detail around the bodywork.
I might look at reducing the width of the wheels would be my only point of feedback. That's mostly because I'm a bit fussy. Judging by the finesse elsewhere it looks like your printer would be ok with that though.

A very nice Jeep indeed. The crew are fine and the paint job works very well.
