Ultramarine Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Hopefully all others have had a great Christmas and New Years break. I was super lucky to get this as a Christmas gift, from my family. After some assembly and fun with the terrible assembly instructions, my sons and I got this 3D printer built and printing. In the past I had to rely on others and my son to get the items I need/want printed… No more. This machine has been super fun to use and learn with over the break. In the past I had purchased some STL files for some tabletop war games, terrain. So, I started printing some alien looking trees for CAV. Above is a couple photos of a CAV model next to some of the prints. I can hardly believe how good they have come out. These are scaled down from the original size to better fit the CAV scale. Below is a picture of the original scale, next to the same model. The original scale is for larger scale games, 28mm or so. I am totally looking forward to printing off a forest of these in the smaller scale that looks better next to the CAV models. I also believe they will be a ton of fun to paint up in some bright mushroom colors. I will post up more pictures as this project progresses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red Baron Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Trees look fantastic! I think the original scale of trees can work too. Keep posting excited to see what you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultramarine Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 I was able to get this items for the Badger printed off today. I am super excited about how good they came out. Now on to printing the missile tips and exhaust ducts, here is hoping that they come out just as good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultramarine Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 The printer I have is a Creality, Ender 3 V2. I am sorry I didn’t see this post earlier. I was able to get a couple more buildings printed up for CAV. These should be fun to paint up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
