My #3Dprinted gate template worked great! I was able to cut my door to fit the doorway I carved in XPS foam. Now, the door needs hinges and perhaps other hardware. There's gaps around it, but I know from experience the wall repair paste I use will fill those. #35scale #scalemodel #plasticmodel
wooden coffee stirrers, glued together and trapped under a bench block until the glue hardens.
XPS foam carved to replicate a model building in a mid-twentieth-century Italian village. As model soldier stands in front for scale.
XPS foam carved to replicate a mid-twentieth-century Italian building. A 3D printed jig was used to carve the masonry surround on an archway.
Part of a mid-twentieth century Italian house, or other town structure, carved in XPS foam, 1/35 scale. #3DPrint jigs help me carve the foam and build the door (coffee stirrers). Modelers usually favor SLA resin printing but FDM can supply tools, jigs, and fixtures. #scalemodel #35scale
Fish Sub Print Fit
Fish Sub Printed Parts
Printed Fish Sub Internals on build plate
smashed and bleeding thumbnail from hitting it on build plate while scraping parts off
Printing one more tray then onto sanding and such. Prints turned out great so far! Smashed my thumbnail inside the glove on edge of steel buildplate while scraping off parts. 😬

I think it's done and ready for final break-up before I print a couple for myself. #3dprinting #arttoy #robot #mecha #3d #modelmaking #steampunk #fusion360 #goldfish #model #kit #35scale #submersible #sub

Bottom flippers are done. Since the fins will be fabric, those holes on the brackets are for stitching heavy thread through to make them more antique-ish steampunk sail-like.

Tail and hull fins designed. Flippers are next.

Goldfish shaped steampunk fish-shaped submersible 3D progress screen capture showing added details
I can more or less use the detail placement formula I developed a dozen years ago when I designed my first hand-sculpted fish sub, but different fish make for unique designs. #3dprinting #arttoy #robot #mecha #3d #modelmaking #steampunk #fusion360 #goldfish #model #kit #35scale #submersible #sub

I'm really enjoying this design project and as such it's coming along pretty quickly. Lots more piping and tanks to do on the underside before starting the fins and inside. #3dprinting #arttoy #robot #mecha #3d #modelmaking #steampunk #fusion360 #goldfish #model #kit #35scale #submersible #sub
Partial Goldfish Steampunk submersible progress
Another whiteboard project while figuring out how to print the Deer leg blades. Resin isn't going to be strong enough and I don't want the lines from FDM. So goldfish-sub it is! #3dprinting #arttoy #robot #mecha #3d #modelmaking #steampunk #fusion360 #goldfish #model #kit #35scale #submersible #sub
YANMAR YH6115 Rice Harvester by Hasegawa in 1:35. I went way too far down the "rice harvesting and general Japanese farm equipment" youtube rabbit hole for this one😂
