Thanks! When I reach the point that I think the quality is there, I will be making some for sale.

Oh, and thank you for your posts!!! I learn a lot from looking at the photos!! For instance, I have yet to put insignia's on the tanks I painted, because I want to stencil them, but couldn't figure out how to make them so they don't bleed. Then I saw your brilliant stencils!! Now I am inspired...

I love how you adapted to the scale thing... one thing I am learning, you can not have true scale for some things at 1:18th scale. I understand now, how toy makers have to walk that fine line between staying true to the real thing, yet exaggerating certain proportions in order to maintain...

The legendary Picklehaube!!! You showed up to to make me look like the noob I am! LOL, just kidding! You sir are the reason I came here... I followed a thread about the Jagdpanther you made.... you sir are the master! I am truly in awe of your work!!

I have several of the Indiana Jones German Motorcycles, which are pretty cool, more toy the replica, but still very cool. I scoured the internet looking for a 1:18 version with the sidecar and MG. No luck. I noticed on the Indiana Jones German motorcycle, there was a hole near the rear wheel...

You're right, there is great quality in these prototypes! Like one guy said, the hands are a bit big, but they will work it out. I am with you, vehicles would be kick ass!! Thanks again for the tip!

Awesome! Thanks man! Took awhile to find them, but VERY cool!!! Man I hope this trend keeps going! What a great time to be a collector!! I will be following these guys now for sure! :D (y)

Thanks, but I can't find it, multiple JoyToy FB pages, and buried? Can you share a link?

JoyToy? I think I have seen some of their stuff, very detailed, but I have not seen any WW2 stuff... do you have the inside scoop?

Yeah for your purpose I would think you would want 20 - 100 microns. That said, better than 100 microns will cost serious $$$. My ender 5, which is 100 microns, is fine for my needs atm. But I plan some day to get a better one. My Ender 5 cost me $350, which I consider very reasonable...

Yes indeed there was, it is the source of my sickness.... Marauder did have a kickstarter, that was fully funded.... unfortunately it did not unlock the bonus DAK soldiers.... never the less, 99% of the soldiers you see there in my collection, came from Marauder. I hope, dream, that they will...

Shhh!! The wife is watching! LOL... well I don't gamble and we don't have kids...

The Toybox printer looks great for making stuff with your kids! I am shocked to see it can get 10 microns resolution... a bit dubious of that? I see it going for $399, which is more than I paid for my Ender 5. But it is probably pretty automagic in it's UI and running it? The build plate is...

Thanks man!

Tanks John! I followed the trail here, I intend to learn what I can for the experts!

Here's an example of a site with high quality models, cheap! Ready to print! Provided they have what you want... personally I find they lack in the WW2 department: https://www.gambody.com/search/tank

Yes sir, some are quite reasonable and ready to print. Others are reasonable and require a lot of 3D rework... and still others cost, how did you say it? Stupid money!! I try to find the good reasonable first, then less expensive high quality models and rework them, like my Zundapp sidecar...

I told my wife if I landed full-time work at the place I was contracting, I was going to treat myself by buying one! After a LOT of research I chose the Ender 5, relatively inexpensive, with high ratings. $350. I won't lie to you, it was (Is?) a huge learning curve, many failed prints! Luckily...

Hi NSA! Thank you!! I hear you... I am an eBay stalker, I wait until things drop from stupid to dumb, then strike!

THIS, THIS!!! This is literally why I wanted to join this group!!! I need to have this!! How durable is resin? Is it as strong as normal PLA?
