USS Indianapolis, 1/1800 scale, 1944 Camo
« on: October 31, 2020, 12:16:07 pm »
Just finished up a 1/1800 scale USS Indianapolis (the scale is compatible with Warlord's Victory at Sea and the old Axis & Allies Naval Minis game). The mini is a 3D print from squint181, who sells his stuff on Shapeways but also prints some of the smaller items he's made himself, such as the Indy here.







Here is the link to squint's Shapeways page:

Great job on the camouflage painting!  The crispness of the lines is very impressive at such a small scale.
If my wife asks, I only spent half as much as I wanted to...

Thanks! The print is resin vice filament, and it really does have a nice level of detail on it. I ordered it straight from the designer (instead of going through Shapeways), so it was fairly inexpensive as such things go.
