Plastic Model and Diorama maker, mostly dealing with modern armor. I also have gotten into 3D printing and figure painting, and there’s more hobbies then that, but they probably won’t show up here. He/Him.
Welcome to my workshop. I build and paint plastic models, primarily of Modern US Armor.
I also design and build my own dioramas.
I have also recently gotten into 3D printing and painting figures.

I have a few more hobbies, including writing fan fiction (links here). But these will be the main ones that I post on this blog.
If trench warfare were made-up, it would be the most on-the-nose anti-war satire ever created. Bunch of young men shooting at each other from inside open graves, slowly rotting even as they fight to stay alive. Every so often, they get to move a few hundred metres to dig a new grave for themselves somewhere else and this is called a victory.
people will really hate anything these days
I won’t say it with a straight face though, I’ll say it with tears in my eyes and mean every bit of it
valid Jess, thank you for that 1000% accurate correction
It is honestly a beautiful shot.
So stupid. So dumb. #MAGA
America will die trying to protect the myth of white superiority. First Felon has broken the minds of mediocre whiteness. The media has betrayed its mission to warn the public in favor of profits/greed.
The world will pass this American generation by.

Have you ever looked closely at a car windshield?
The edge of the glass is painted where it is glued to the car but it has these small dots between the clear and painted glass.
These are there for a reason. When the sun hits the glass the painted areas and the clear areas will absorb heat at different rates. This causes the glass to expand and contract differently putting stress on the glass.
These dots help the glass to warm up more evenly over a larger area so the glass does not suffer stress that could cause it to spontaneously explode.
Fun fact: the Tesla cybertruck doesn’t have these.
Yes, the glass will spontaneously crack or explode in the sun.

The 2D paint styles on 3D art is amazing, if not only a little mind breaking. The reflected light that artist added helps sell that so much more. Something I should try and add to my figures more as it sells them being in real space a lot more.

How do you get such clean lines on Isha's glove thing? Tape??
Unfortunately I have no secret technique to share. I just used a fine tipped brush and a steady hand. Switching to Sable brushes for detail work has made a big difference as they keep their tip for a long time.
I don’t find myself masking very often when using the airbrush. I think the only thing I did mask was Isha’s face when I did the graffiti type art on the helmet.
Also getting a feel for the order of operations helps a lot. With messy steps with poorly defined boundaries first and working up to fine tip brushes.
First step for me is airbrushing (that’s where the purple and base skin tone comes in). Followed by the skin tone done with oil (very messy with all the blending). Then details get layered starting at the bottom most layer and working up.
The stripes (I’m not sure if you are referring to those or the fingerless gloves) are actually raised a bit, so it’s not too bad to paint them without hitting the base purple layer. And then finally mixing up some color match paint to fix any mistakes.
Hopefully that helped answer your question. Let me know if you have any more.
i dont think anything compares to the joy of getting asks on tumblr or getting comments on ao3
