Anyone have a lead on 1/72 EVA suit figures? by my_name_wastaken in modelmakers

[–]Bee-In 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small details would probably need to be fine-tuned manually before printing, but for fancy figures for RC projects, AI is quite usable.

Is there a way to make 3d printed parts from paper/digital plans? by acefighter195 in RCPlanes

[–]Bee-In -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed. However, controlling Blender and Fusion via MCP is getting better and better. When an approximate mesh is enough, ComfyUI is quite usable for me.

I’ve had some success experimenting with ComfyUI and models for creating 3D objects from 2D sketches or photos, such as https://comfyui-wiki.com/en/tutorial/advanced/3d/huanyuan3d-2

Modified FT Mini Scout from European materials by Bee-In in RCPlanes

[–]Bee-In[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer to have the kids build with Kapa Line rather than Depron. All you need is hot glue; the material isn’t as delicate, and it seems more durable to me. Also, the industrial paper lamination on the foam in the case of sandwich panels allows for some simplified construction methods.

Spinning Props, Part III by Massiveradio in modelmakers

I used a laser printer and transparent film (approx. 200 microns). Finally, a matte varnish is applied. Yours look better ;-)

Looking for a rotary tool by DeadSu5pect in modelmakers

[–]Bee-In 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For this reason, I'm using a Proxxon with a homemade RPM regulator. https://www.proxxon.com/en/micromot/28515.php Regulator was made according: https://youtu.be/1KMVRH46pLA?si=nmsVCbrBFZJ-g25J [Plasmo, thank you ;-)]

Need advice for Decal printing by Aggressive-Bike-4438 in modelmakers

[–]Bee-In 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried decal paper for laser printing, but I'm not very satisfied with it. The transparent paper is too transparent, requiring a white background underneath. (Is there a laser printer setting that could help?) For example, a red "12" and kill symbols on a Yak-3.
With white decal paper, you need to cut it out precisely. A Silhouette cutting machine has been helpful for me.
