LSP_Kevin Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 This was supposed to be a quick little side project to give me an excuse to print something on my Elegoo Saturn 3D printer, but like most of my projects, dragged on and got more complicated. I decided to try to recreate the metallic effects and overall weathering as close to what we see on screen as possible, and late in the piece, I decided it needed a base for stability purposes. So what was supposed to take a few days has ended up taking a few months, but here it is. Thanks for looking! Now I need to get back to one of my many unfinished aircraft projects!

Rick K Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Awesome finish Kev. The metallic paint, shading is excellent. I cannot imagine a build targeted as a "quick project" turns into a months long trek. Why I never..... LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petrov27 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Wow that is amazing - really well done! As someone currently printing a large multipart figure on their own Saturn, the work to do that is not to be underestimated - the amount of clean-up, prepping, etc. for the parts can be a huge effort but you seem to have knocked it out of the park with this one - congrats on such a well done project!
