While I've been delayed in my card modeling as of late... I have been tackling my plastic model pile of sham...errr... potential! I built and wired up this 1/144 Bandai Gouf Custom Real Grade kit from the MS Team 008 anime OVA series. Took a long time, but got me back into soldering! 26 AWG...

Print and paint of a Paul Scott Miniatures Space Elf Guardian, scaled up to 54mm from 32mm. Earned myself a nice $10 USD gift card from the local game shop! It was a popularity vote based on what minatures the patrons liked most with an elvish theme. Knowing the Warhammer 40K player base...

I don't just Guard hard, I also like my space elf forces. These are some Paul Scott Miniatures (MMF) space elf jet bikes. I have more, and have shown the Guardians elsewhere here on Zealot... so, beginning of an Army now!

These have sat on my hard drive far too long. Not the photos, they are recent! But the STL files for my Mad Robot Miniatures Dirty Dogs of Sarlok 7, not to be mistaken for chem dogs, which they can proxy for... Oh no, these are legally distinct! Never mind, GW never made Chemdog troops on...

Pushing my FDM printer to the limits here! Final results first. More to follow when I am in front of my PC and not my phone (I can type so much faster that way). Couldn't help but put these guys in front of Silveroxide's awesome Super Chimera I finished last year. His build post mentioned it...

More giant stompy robots for Battletech printed at 15mm/1:100 scale for Gruntz 15mm and other science fiction game systems! Strato Miniatures Studio STL, "Virgil" mech, counts as Battletech Ostscout Mechwarrior Online version of the Battletech Spider mech MWO version of the Valkyrie...

Okay, I am in good health. Just a 40K joke, as the Chaos god Nurgle is the deity of rot, decay, and diseases. I am building this as a gift. A friend of mine, and fellow 40K lore fan, got married and I didn't find a good gift for the wedding. So I am making one. He chose a dreadnought, and...

Rumor has it @dr_tetrode officially retired or something this last Friday. Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing more of your work on these forums! Of course, that is after getting some 'deferred maintenance' and Honey-Do items for Mrs. Tetrode out of the way first...

Sharing my secret sauce! Well, not really... I think I actually learned this here. I just happened to film myself and blabber unscripted about it. Here's to all the Zealots who taught me this recipe among many others!

Took a break from building this weekend to paint up a couple of 3D printed busts. Both were supportless models printed at .05 mm on my modified Lulzbot Taz 5 with Matter Hackers Build PLA. Primed, and painted with Army Painter Speed Paints and then regular acrylics. First off is the...

After getting the news of Silveroxide's passing this morning, I decided to build one of his designs to honor his memory. I found Zealot after discovering his work on the 40k forum Dakkadakka. This his Super Chimera. I had started a thread earlier, however I found I probably deleted it...

YouTube from TinkerTerrain's channel from over 10 years ago. While he used Evergreen platicard stock, I suspect his track jig (for a scratchbuilt Baneblade tank for 40K no less...) would work in paper as well. I might have to make one...

I have hobby ADHD or something... In the middle of my papercard M113 build, I started a plastic kit from the Sunrise anime series Obsolete. Well, sort of... You see, they made one of their Exoframe kits (Good Smile) a tribute to Armored Trooper Votoms. Here is my build so far.

Finally got around to starting the Patoroch version of the M113 APC inspired, counts as, Classic Rhino. Started it a few nights back and for the main hull started and modified with some supports and some openings I intend to put crew into. Not quite ready to do a super detailed interior or...

I got together with @drtetrode this last weekend and taught him Alpha Strike. It's a simplified variation Battletech allowing for larger forces on the table and faster games. He had map sheets instead of terrain, so we used the rules for converting inches to hexes for moving and range. Worked...

My local game group is starting a Chaos Campaign (freebie from the Catalyst website). So me being me, I 3D printed and painted all new mechs. First off, is the Phoenix Hawk jumping off of its kill, a luckless Javelin mech!

Back when my Mars 2 Pro was working... I printed A LOT of models. Now that I have issues with it... My painting backlog is getting tackled. Trade-offs! These are a trio of Bob Naismith designs I received when I was a Patreon Member a few months back. They are "Dorfs" but you can guess the...

Mad Robot Miniatures Goatmen heads (HH-106), Tribal Torsos (HT-09), Goatmen Legs (HL-22), and Lykan Close Combat Arms (HA-06). Finally got these painted up, in spite of a bad primer job they turned out great! Not contest entry great, but still good looking models. Harkening back to the days when...

So, I replaced my LCD (2k monochrome) print area screen on my Elegoo Mars 2 Pro. First print went off without a hitch. Last five have ended up like this one... Got some queries in the Elegoo forums, but all my searches have come up empty as what this issue might be. I've double checked my...

More Enesis Troopers from Bob Naismith (the guy who sculpted the first Space Marines for Citadel Miniatures back in the 80's). 3D printed on my Elegoo Mars Pro 2.
