Humber Scout Car

 I've joined the Eskice Miniatures Tribe on Myminifactory. And on the March release I received an STL for a Humber Scout Car along with British Paratroopers. 

I've been printing and painting a lot of these miniatures. Today I finally got around to painting the Scout car.

I've always been a big fan of the movie    " A Bridge Too Far."  So this has been fun. I was torn on which type of uniform I should paint the man standing in the car. I was really leaning toward the Michael Caine Irish Guards look. But obviously went with a Paratrooper.

The figure is painted completely with contrast paints over a zinithal primer. The car is painted with a mixture of acrylic and contrast.

M8 Greyhound armored car








 These are two more vehicles I've printed on the Voxelab proxima. I added the 3dbreed soldiers and 50 cal machine guns to the greyhounds.

I wasn't happy with the base color and highlights. But once I put the agrex shade to it, it looked right.

M2 medium mortar

 This is another 3d printed model from 3dbreed.

I'm having a great time making troops out of my printer. It seems like it is always on printing something. I've finally got my settings on point. I'm getting to the point where I'm out pacing my painting with my printing turn out.

Stug III G

 This is a Stug III G in 28mm which I 3d printed on my Voxelab Proxima. There some print errors on it. Again from user error. I attempted to print this model 3 other times with tragic results.

I tried to give this Stug an ambush camouflage paint job. I think it came out alright.

28mm Pak 40

 This another 3dbreed model that I printed in 28mm. It is a pretty nice game quality model. The crew was included.

I painted this in a mixture of contrast






and acrylic paints.
