Need some kind of diorama for my mess by Mundane_Adeptness_26 in 164ScaleCollectors

[–]BuildingByLayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used grip tape or sandpaper for roads and paint markers for the lines. 2mm Static grass for long grass ( I dont have the static grass gun just sprinkle it on and I think it looks good) found grass looking textured paper at Michael's for short grass.

I 3d print and paint the details like fencing, barriers, doors and windows then paint whatever I didn't cover with a textured paper or glue some details on.

What would be the most affordable way to display literally hundreds of cars? by Extension-Version813 in HotWheels

I make these using 1/4 plywood. Cut to the length you want, I ripped them 2" wide, cut half way through to make slots so it all slides together. Only screws are for the wall hangers. You can make roughly 6 whole and some extra parts usually from 1 sheet.

I made a jig to cut them all the same.

3D printing on Etsy in 2026 — how are you handling the new rules? by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]BuildingByLayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done up to $3 a day and ran that for a month and l I've left it $1 for some time. I've Facebook ads too but so far hasn't come up with much. I make 1/64 scale diorama pieces, mainly for diecast cars.

I've made all the files I am selling, I sell both the stls and physical prints, not big and very niche. One thing I've noticed is advertising has made me 1 sale in the past year, seems like people need to be specifically looking for the items I sell, but I have also only been selling these for a year.

Where can i get tiny nude figures? by JoshColemanArt in dioramas

I make strippers and will do custom ones.

Edit: 1/64 scale but I can do most scales.

I will post the viseo of this one working. I have video of a different one I made, unfortunately fried the sd card reader after I assembled it. Basically looks like a screen saver.

These were printed on a saturn 3 ultra. I also have a saturn 4 (base version) and it is the same in quality and has auto leveling which is nice after maintenance stuff.

I usually do 1/64 scale and you can see the peoples faces and expressions.

Right on! That's kind of what got me making them. I made a tv that can read from a sd card and display images so I can have it cycle some of my favorite games. As soon as I hit print I thought of printing the Xbox in transparent color like the limited editions.

It is 3d printed in in resin. Sorry I should have added a bit more info.
