With each new print and project I learn a little more about what works for my 3D printer, I can see designing backdrop buildings and casting copies of them with in reach.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- makerbot has a new color called army green kinda olivish color, not sure if it is available in both ABS and PLA. If I do produce some castings to sell I am limited to small buildings due to build platform size, may get another 3D printer sometime down the road maybe a TAZ 3D printer with a bigger platform, no rush on it though. Maybe I could do a modular building wall componant approach, as far as castings I wonder if resin or hydrocal would be a better material for a detailed building? As for scales I am thinking TT, HO, S, and O scales as G would be too big for my printer and N and Z maybe too tiny for details.
