3D Printed Crane finished!

Sometimes you just have to take a moment and look in wonder! Yesterdays view was stunning, but no finding that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow even though it looked just a few hundred yards from my vantage point!

 

Maybe if I had a crane I could lift myself to the end! And talking of cranes, despite the continued mess in the reorganisation of the Man Cave, I did manage to finish the 3D printed crane! First off was to colour in the bricks of the plinth using my various coloured pencils.

Then the crane was treated to a wash of Citadel's Nulin oil which I had found during my reorganisation!

Once that was dry it was time for some rust and dust weathering powders to be applied with a soft brush to both the crane and plinth.

Once that was done the plinth and crane were treated to a coat of matt varnish. After that I just highlighted some of the edges of the crane with a dry brushing of gunmetal grey which just makes the detail stand out a bit more. I think it looks good!
