Back on the Diorama after the family holiday to England
I really must try and concentrate on one thing. Back in Tinkercad I created some roller shutter doors for the maintenance shed. 25 minutes later hot off the 3D printer here they are test-fitting into the doorways.
Next, I airbrushed the doors black on both sides, when that was dry I cut 5mm strips of painter’s tape and stuck them on, then gave multiple coats of yellow to create the “Wasp Effect”
While making the shutter doors I also 3D printed the access door. I’m not quite sure what colour to paint this. There is so much grey all over the diorama.
In the picture above you can also see the workbenches also 3D printed.
I’ve been trying to finish up several things on the Diorama, but the lure of the 3D printer keeps getting in the way. The urge to design and build something is just too strong.
I think the maintenance shed doors turned out well. I still need to “weather” them down a bit.
I resprayed the PortaKabins, I didn’t like the sand colour. I’m waiting for some LEDs to arrive from China, once they turn up, I’ll add a couple, glaze the windows, and put the roof on.
…and yes, I’m working on yet another building for the Diorama. I really must stop with the 3D printer.
This is going to be a workshop.
Full details on the workshop build can be found here.
