    Default 3D Printed M4 Sherman Tank

    Hello,

    My school just got a 3D printer from a grant, so I obviously printed a tank :)

    It is very small, but the detail is not bad.

    $20 bill for scale.

    Can't wait for 3D Printing to become cheap enough. Hopefully should see a golden age of war gaming.

    Yea, Warhammer models will be my next step. This wasn't even the max resolution, so I will see what that looks like.

    Be careful. Games Workshop will smash your testicles if they think you're stealing their intellectual property.

    The files are not mine,(they were on thingiverse), and as long as I am not selling them, I think I am fine. They have had files removed from thingiverse though.

    Nice you can't event tell you printed them after they are painted. What paints do you use Reaper? or Vallejo?
    "In midnight clad"

    The Stug 3 is a Flames of War model, injection molded. I just had it there for scale and a reference. You can't see the tiger well due to it being white, but I will paint it up and post some more pics. I use a mixture of mainly games workshop paints and vallejo. I also use some badger and vallejo model air paints for my airbrushes (So helpful for doing tank stripe camo)
