:salute: Hi People :salute:


I’m new here and I’ve looked up on many thread of this forum and I see a lot of amazing work :D
Huuuuuh…. Don’t know what to say to introduce myself ^^’
I’m very interested by WWII and I do also some « custom » design too, but it’s mainly by 3d printing. Easy way huh?
I have made a lot of model since last year (around 70 models since October 2016), but only few of my product have passed the manual check before printing step, these ones have the mention: “–PASSED- “.
I’ve focused on German and US equipment because I started it in mind to upgrade my collection with a better-looking stuff than the vanilla one. My models are mostly firearms, but I’m working on some accessories (headgear, radio, Scenery stuff, etc…) and I’m thinking about to do also artillery, vehicle (Tank, motorcycle, LAV, …) and may be action figures (if I managed to handle human body creation)
I’m thinking about to do also, Russian, Italian, English, French and Japanese gear.
I’ve a shop on the Website which do 3d printing for me.
Feel free to give a look on it :wink:

Here is some render of my product.

If you are interested in my work, you can place a commission, I’ll be glad to do it. :mrgreen:

:p51: :p51: :p51:

P.S: Yes, somehow, it’s advertising ^^’
And I’m sorry to post it in this forum section, but I’m not patient enough to wait six months to post it in the good section.
:arrow: Could it be move to the right section if possible?

As i say, only few of my model have passed trough the manual check of Shapewaysn that means that other poeple than me have ordered it on my shop.
The only one that i got is for the French FM 24/29
The model that have been printed successfully are marked with "PASSED"

I will ask to the poeple who ordered on my shop, and that I can contact, if they can send me some photo of it.

Normally, I will received some photo of my M2 mortar on a PT boat

My friend is trying to print a 1/18 stug currently. He is doing it mostly to see if he can do it. a small test print went well. The 1/18 will be in about 9 parts or so. The size is causing a delay. Hopefully it works out.
