You couldn't print the small one then?  ;D ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

OK, you printed a biplane. What is it though so we have an idea of scale please as it could be an 0/400 of a Sopwith Camel, at least as far as I can tell with my eyes as they are.

Sopwith was also a Camel in the cartoon series Beau Peep, a humerous take on Beau Geste

I'd be worried about accidentally inhaling that...

Looks good.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I tried blowing some dust off it for the picture... turns out it's aerodynamically sound...

;D ;D

At least it was integrally sound enough that it could support the weight of the dust  :angel:

Amazing stuff  :bow: my brain really does struggle to grasp just how small these things are.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

No help when there is no such thing as a scale banana next to it, and yes that is a thing.

I think a Scale Reference Flea would be more appropriate in this case. :o

Possibly a scale reference penny/five pence piece/cent/rupee   might be of use

I thought the NATO standard 14ml tin was scale reference enough. The tin is upside down because you cant see the model from the side as it sits within the indent on the lid...

Progress, ships boats printed (badly unfortunately)



Bit of PSR on the hull too to get rid of the FDM print lines. Managed to knock the bridge structure about a bit and so its had to have some repairs. We'll see how it looks once I've primed everything again but worst comes to the worst, Ill print a new one.

Hopefully, once it's combined with primer, you can't!
