EDIT: the parts are 3d printed (not my model tho)

Cleaning up the print with some sandpaper might have made a big difference or is that paint chunks on the surface?

Pretty cool print either way tho :)

[-] bi_tux@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

kinda both, there were small spikes on the surface, where the paint got chunky

If your ever in a situation where both you and your mom are in that room and you get into an argument about destroying something and she gets really mad and starts throwing things and then throws something into that glass case and damages that model you can say...

This is awesome!

I know it's natural that your eye can't help but pick up defects, but overall it looks great, and each project looks a bit better.

What possessed you to "paint" it

[-] bi_tux@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I used a new fillament and my printer got too hot, so there were burn marks
