Re: Heavy 30 pd-Parrot Rifle....on the way..

An impressive model to say the least. Phenomenal work Gerd. Have you ever thought about making a tutorial on something like this? I for one don't have quite the ingenuity that you have, but would be willing to put in the effort if pointed in the right direction.

Re: Heavy 30 pd-Parrot Rifle....on the way..

Hello Asher,

Thank you for your praise. I'm always happy when you like my projects. They're not always perfect, but I always like to try something new.

What should I make a tutorial about? About the research on the model? Or how to build such a team of horses? Or how to stage and photograph it well?

I wouldn't even know what to start with. Sometimes I see models or figures, but I don't like the way they are executed. Then I look for the originals on the internet and then start designing my own models or figures. Sometimes I then create conversions, but I now design some things with a CAD program and then create them with a 3D printer. Therefore, there is no clear scheme in my work. :wink:

And then, after weeks of tinkering, this is what comes out:





Or thinks like this..if i had a good day :smile: :

Wow! A very dedicated process. I guess I may need to practice my figure converting and contemplate investing in a 3D printer. Either way your projects always turn out beautiful. Keep up the work!
