Crius, its ok. They are not for everyone. I was trying to get an idea if people wanted them as individual figures or as the set; but, that sort of got over-looked in your reply. The cost is comparable to resin figures in my opinion and the quality is as well.

As for material concerns, they are made in Shapeway's "Strong-White" material. I wash parts with standard soap and water then dry. I can trim, sand, saw, and carve this material. I use figure primer and paint as i would any other figure. For putty I use standard green or 2-part epoxy putty. I do use CA generally for figures but I have to say I have used epoxy on some Strong-White assemblies I have in my RC Tanks.....

Thanks for the cleaning and paint info.

I think they'll sell better as individual figures. They might even be a better price than resin, and I'm sure the guys that want a truly detailed model will welcome them.

just have to figure out how to mount them and make 3 more

Nice work! Look great!

where to get the digital camo canvas

Airbrushler

i made it

Crius

Those two look great together, Greg. I wonder if anyone would notice if I used a German gun? Of course you guys would, I mean Joe Schmo and the Great Unwashed. I could always say we captured it, right?

Anyway, don't try this at home!


Extra points if you spot Nancy in one of his favorite spots. Shadow is easy to see, but Nancy stays put for all the hubbub.

Thanks for the ride Gary, now go get those nice vehicles off the floor before you accidentally step on one.

Gary, you're like a ninja.

TheBennyB

Was thinking the same thing. You inside while operating Gary? Also was funny to hear the truck haul ass to the fed ex truck like you were expecting more goodies!

Crius

No, Bret, I was out there, just being very careful not to reveal the man behind the curtain.

And we're always expecting more goodies. Right now we're waiting for the GAZ and the ... wait for it ... 3D PRINTER!!

sounds Cool Clark does it have a hookup still for a Smoker i think it would be cool with my Exhaust

Crius

The big question will be price. If it's over $35 I can do all the same stuff with the das mikro for less. To put in the esc, servo, lights and sound cost under $30 in my truck.

And hopefully I'll soon be making the 3D printed tray for the truck to hold the servo and electronics, since I got my printer yesterday. If I can print trays I'll make them available to my fellow forum members at cost. It will probably cost more to mail a tray than it will to make it.

Nice video and demo clarke. Good work.

Is it sad that the first thing that caught my attention in the video were the jack stands?

Crius

Not at all, Philip, those are very cool, and rather eye-catching.

clarkmodel

Thanks, MTK37 has same sound driver in TK60/24 series. Yes, MTK37 also has same proportional smoke port in TK60/24 series.

Clark

Really? that stand was released for years.

tomhugill

That das mikro won't give you the battle repair function however.

Crius

The truck board has IR battling capability? I know Dean was thinking about making a repair ambulance, but I thought he was gonna use a TK22.

To be honest, I'd rather see the truck board without IR capability. It won't be many at all that want to use it to make repairs, but it would increase the cost.

Crius

Just got the email that my GAZ has shipped.
