Robin (WhiteGlint)Welcome mates! No new pictures yet but I managed to work on the pre shading, so the actual paiting can begin soon.
To, hopefully, save me some trouble I will check some colour conversion tables and compare which I need for this tank and the Edelweiss.
As I intend to use my Tamiya paints instead of buying the ones in the guide I maybe have to eyeball the colours. So even if the colours are not completely accurate I want at least both tanks to look the same, if I am supposed to use the same blue on both, for example.
There are lighting kits for both tanks but I will simply paint the radiator style "exhausts" of their engines as the machines in the world of Valkyria Chronicles do not run on petrol or diesel but on a substance called "ragnite" instead. That is also one of the reasons there are no exhaust pipes on the tanks. Instead the "radiators" are molded in clear plastic, which I will paint in clear blue.
I am also not sure yet how much I will weather both tanks, probably only some light to medium chipping and a low amount of dust, dirt and splatters.

Robin (WhiteGlint)First coats of paint applied. Next step I have to prepare and apply the masks before I can paint the second colour.

Moreno BaruffiniI like "what if" models, so following!!!
Ps I also sometimes take pictures with wet paint, no problem 😉👍🏻

Moreno BaruffiniGood progress! Concerning the landing lights, you could sand them a bit, and then finish with polishing 😉

Gergely RáczThank You, Moreno. One of them went missing since then (perhaps not enough glue was applied, and it fell off while I was working on the wings), so I'll have to make one from scratch. A piece of clear sprue might do the job.

Jonas » FunksjonsforespørslerHi Tim
With more and more people (like me) getting a good quality 3D resin printer, printing your own accessories becomes an option. I've even designed a few on my own (and a lot of tools). A few manufacturers (like Germania Figuren) already offer 3D printable STL files. These are mentioned here as "Digital:3D data file", but I could not find the option to "search" for these STL files specific. Apparently, it's just a checkbox somewhere under accessories, but they do not appear to be a "searchable" feature? Maybe I'm wrong?
Although it should not be the intention to turn SCM into another "Thingiverse", it might be a great feature to have the option of adding a specific category of " 3D printable (STL) Files" to share and download. These could be linked to a specific kit (for which they are designed). The scale would be only a "recommended scale" because it's easy to rescale them in your printer software. The "manufacturer" would be something like a " user-designed item". The possibility of adding the file to be downloaded would be obvious 🙂
A big issue might be "licensing". There probably should be indications of what you can or cannot do with the files. Downloading an STL and then start selling printed versions for profit, might not be what the designer had in mind. Thingiverse "solves" this issue with predetermined sets of "IP protection". Also to take into consideration.
I know, maybe this is a feature request that goes way beyond what SCM is supposed to do, but still... I was wondering what your opinion is.
Thx!

Starbase101I don't agree that Scalemates should be offering downloads of 3D models. (It's already sketchy offering download of instructions sheets, which are copyrighted by kit manufacturers.) Several of the STL files I've got were purchases and it's inappropriate (plus illegal) to offer them for free download. Sites which do offer free download, such as Thingiverse, should be findable through an SCM item's brand homepage. Tim is already having to periodically increase server capacity to keep pace with image uploads, and adding 3D files (even freeware) will exasperate this further. A lot of STL downloads include licensing and distribution restrictions, and it doesn't seem to me within the scope of Scalemates to be providing digital file downloads. Models are already easily findable through Google, Thingiverse, STLfinder, Yeggi, etc.
However, I do agree (and have already requested previously) that there should be a Filter option added for digital 3D data files. This would enable you to reduce Search/Stash results down to seeing only digital files.

David Kranich » FunksjonsforespørslerCould you add the Digital: 3D print category to the search keywords in the kit-database? I am currently a lot into 3D printing myself and from time to time, you see new releases with the label Digital:3D print file (or similar wording😅).
When you search through the kit database, you can't search for these items, directly, like you could with Full Kit, Detail Set, etc. Would be great to have the ability to filter for just these digital files!
