1/72 Sci-Fi tanks
« on: February 13, 2021, 11:20:40 PM »
New printer, a Eleego Mars 2 Pro.  This thing is fantastic, and I can now not only print much easier, but I can print super highness master for traditional metal and resin casting!

Anyway, I can now print my 1/48 sci-fi models in 20mm much more easily.
This print is about 5 inches long, and multipart.

Very nice!  :-* How long did it take to print?

My Mars 2 Pro arrives next week. Looking forward to seeing some of my sculpts become reality.

Looking good, very nice model.  I recently got a resin printer after using filament for years, game changer!

My 1/72 models are averaging about 3 hours.  When printed in 1/48, the average is 7 hours.  1/72 stormtroopers or clones are taking about an hour for a squad.

a 1:56 P40 tank I just sculpted takes about 2-3 hours per set of parts.  So Tracks, hull and turret are all separate print runs.
