Color: Science, Research, Systems, and Standards
robertmro replied to George's topic in General Discussion
It's a hobby. If you want to use all your knowledge of color science you're taking your hobby to an art. But if you want to build an accurate model but not concerned about color science you're probably more of an historian. If you're building and painting with no real concern for accuracy you're probably not that obsessed and that's fine too. It's a hobby. -

I I agree. It took me a couple of years to get good with the software and years more to get really good. But I use Modo which isn't a CAD program and I use camera matching to calculate dimensions when I can't get blueprints. This can be done for free with Blender. The only down side is these programs only save STL files which can't be used for CNC.

It’s interesting that you ask. I’m in a dispute with ANYCUBIC right now for a refund. Fortunately I paid with PayPal and will eventually get my money back but there many people out there wouldn’t. My reasons for the cancellation had nothing to do with their inability to deliver product now. The reviews online were very good and at one time the company shipped a good product however things have changed. A day after placing my order l learned that I wanted a smaller 4K screen which delivers a finer resolution but smaller build size. I tried to cancel the order but they have no mechanism fo

This isn't the right place for this discussion. That might sound insensitive but you are venturing into the politically charged topic of who should carry guns and take the law into their hands. Some would say you would be justified but other would say that if everyone is armed and free decide when to enforce the law things could get out of control very quickly. I think most people would agree that you could gotten into a lot of legal trouble if you had used your gun. I'm have deep sympathy for you because I can understand the emotions you felt. I have strong feels about this issue

Limited Edition: Airfix 1/24 P-51D Brass Landing Gear
robertmro replied to robertmro's topic in Vendors Board
That’s correct. It’s farmed out to a shop in the USA that does high end jewelry setting this way. This whole undertaking is an experiment because I need to make a minimum run of 10 sets. I want to see if there is enough interest before I place the order because I t’s a lot of money to lay out if there’s no interest. So If I can get at least 10 people to commit I will place the order and it will take a couple of weeks to complete. So far 3 are onboard. There is no risk for the participants because they will not be charged until run is completed. It’s almost like a mini crowd fund with -
Hi Folks, The attached images are of an available set of brass landing-gear for the Airfix 1/24 P-51D. They are extremely accurate scale reproductions. I modeled the set using archival blueprints and photographs. Normally, I would have cast a large run of them for sale on my website. However, due to the unusual way they are made, I'm only offering them as a special order. The price is $68 US per set plus shipping. The reason for this price is that they are all cast from first-generation 3D prints. That means there are no mold seams, flash or build up of any vestment porousness whatsoever.
