New 3D Arrivals

Within a few days of each other, two recent 3d printed orders arrived 

The first took just over a week from Temu in China - total cost of NZ$36 - two 28mm Lanchester armoured cars for use with my RCW/BoB collection 

The second took about three weeks from Battle Honors in the UK at a cost of about NZ$180, which included about $50 of postage for a parcel that weighs 284g - FFS!


Quite a large box and well packed and padded to be fair to them but 23 quid postage for 300g really is ridiculous!



One of the command groups purchased - very nice prints so I have no complaints about the cost of the figures - I just wish my mate in Wellington could print them for me!


And here are the armoured cars - again, can't complain about the packaging .... 



...  or the quality of the prints   .......


..... or the price per model ......


.... or, this time, the postage - free because I spent over NZ$35!


The Copplestone Bolshevik heroine gives an indication of scale



Very happy with the contents of both packages!

And to finish off, here are a couple more AI generated videos



It didn't get these ones quite right but they are not terrible for a first attempt. Unfortunately, as I am using free generation, I am limited to only 2 or 3 videos before they start offering me unappealing ways to pay them to continue! So this may be the end of my AI video experimentation.



Thanks for the visit. We are playing a board game based on Ancient Greek mythology at Julians tomorrow, it has some nice figures that Jules has painted up, so I will do a brief report over the weekend I expect.
