experiments with better tentacle material...
We've received some samples from Steve Jackson Games for their CARnage 2 Kickstarter. In a previous article, we took a look at a sample vehicle.
However, the sample figures provided were fresh from being 3Dprinted, and their supports needed to be trimmed away!
And here are the figures, having been given a basic clean-up.
This is Super Fan Billy Bob. He's described as wearing a 'beer can hat'. His flag snapped off during clean-up, unfortunately.
This is Super Fan Mimi, described as a grandmother. Her skirt is open at the bottom, which is amazing technically, but clean-up and painting under there may be challenging. I took extra care to make sure her ankles did not snap during clean-up.
This is identified as a crew figure.
And another crew figure. Parts of his base broke off during clean-up. Comparing to the website photos, it seems I was supposed to trim off more from the end of the gun.
Finally, here's a comparison shot with two of the sample figures, and another figure I happened to have convenient. The sample figures are more correct to scale, but may be delicate depending on how you 3Dprint them.
We'll get some paint on these for a future article.
