Iceman 29 Posted October 10, 2023 Author Share Posted October 10, 2023 Very satisfied with the 3D prints. I experimented with printing the same sliced file with my Anycubic Photon MonoX 4K, and my brand new Anycubic Photon M5s 12K. https://www.anycubic.fr/products/anycubic-photon-mono-m5s?variant=45921998012729 It's printed with 50 microns layers on both, but on the M5s, the horizontal resolution is 3 times higher, and you can see the difference with the naked eye, there are no visible layers on the M5s, on the print of the Mono X 4K you can see with a magnifying glass layers on the cases and on the anvil. You can't see this in the photos. The most remarkable detail is the size of the printed subject, you can see the difference with the naked eye, the Mono X 4K prints larger, which sometimes poses a problem for parts that fit together, you have to take this problem into account when drawing the parts before printing. On the M5s, the parts come out visibly to the designed dimension, even better than on the Anycubic Ultra, which has a different technology. The problem is not to get trapped (by habit) by drawing parts that are too thin at the printing limit. Like the handles of the seals which didn't print on the M5s (too thin) and printed fine on the Mono X because they were automatically of a larger diameter. I've kept the two printing sessions, which makes my sailor a little bigger, a little more pasted and a little smaller, which isn't bad. On the right, printed in 4K resolution, on the left in 12K. You can also see that the detail is much better in 12K, even if the iPhone's camera doesn't keep up... 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted October 12, 2023 Author Share Posted October 12, 2023 I detached and started painting the sailors, the whites Revell Matt 5 and the blues, Scalecolor Ocean blue SW60. Then I continued with the whites, applying two colours, the skin colour Humbrol Matt 61, and again SW60 for the bachi. There's still the hair, the red pompom to paint, the black shoes, the accessories, boxes, brooms etc... Ditto for the blue series. Just posed, not glued, not finished. Just for the fun. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted October 14, 2023 Author Share Posted October 14, 2023 Thanks all ! 👍 I've started to 'furnish' the deck. Only a few of the 200 sailors are in place. The photos are average because of the white, which is a bit clashing. It looks much better in real life. All these sailors still have to be placed. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courageous Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Lovely work Pascal, the figures definitely give you perspective. Looks like you have a few spares or have you jobs for them? Stuart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted October 15, 2023 Author Share Posted October 15, 2023 Thank you Serkan, Stuart, followers! Glad you liked it. 👍 @Stuart, this is the second set of sailors I've painted today, I'm not finished yet. This will bring the total to 200 on deck. But I'm not sure it'll be enough... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I haven't made many comments I've been checking in from time to time to see your progress. This model is superb. Regards, Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 Tks all, Jeff! I've also started on the 3D design of another project close to a friend's and my own heart, which I'll let you know about soon. I also needed to draw a hull again, so as not to lose my skills with the Fusion360 program. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 I'm a bit late on this one as I've started another project. This series is finished being painted. Now they can get on board. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
