Zona Alfa - A Few Mini-Projects

original draft 2020-10-20

I've started looking at missions a bit more. I modelled up some stolen RC drones which are printing now.

Printing done, painting done, boxed done. Scientist for scale. 

Just a quick and utilitarian paint job. Pretty happy with the result though.


I also found on thingiverse some blind dogs, snorks and bloodsuckers.   printing up one batch of each 6 dogs, 4 or each of the other two.   This way i can add some extra  variety into the hostile table. rad-ghouls could be either of the later two and dogs have been making a few appearances - nice to have extra models.

happy enough with the scale. should be quick and easy paint jobs given they're mainly mono-colour.



update 2020-10-23:  undercoat going on now.

update 2020-10-24:  these were done and even saw some table time!! yhay!



I've also switched over from isopropyl alcohol to methylated spirits. replaced all the liquids in the cleaning tanks.  

So far the results are good. No surface frosting or anything like that. I can also run 4 vats to get rid of more of the resin, so it's a win in many directions.  And with metho sooooo much easier to get (and less than half the price) i can also swap out the cleaning tanks more frequently which would definitely have something to do with eternally sticky prints (aka reusing goopy isopropyl indefinitely).


Until next time...
