Modelling the AMS60 – Part 3

In this part we will focus on painting the hull and the smaller parts. We will also show how to choose between using the PLA 3D-printed railing or using brass Railing Scepters. For our test-model we used brass railing and wire, as that looks much better on the model. But this requires more modelling work […]

Modelling the AMS60 – Part 2

This 2nd article gives an overview how to build a model of an AMS60 minesweeper as used by the Dutch Navy, the model has been created on the request of the team supporting and maintaining the AMS ms Bernisse. It has been designed as a 1/100 scale model (44 cm long model) and the 3D-design […]

3D print Pont de la Barquette

Simple design of the locks near hells corner, Pont de la Barquette, Carentan. I did not add the stone-structure to the walls. The model was created on request of a wargaming friend and I printed the whole model in 1:100 scale. Large parts are printed with PLA, but the lock doors are printed on a […]

Allied Landing Craft WW2

This blog will provide an overview of the 3D-models I created and printed in 1:100 scale (15mm wargaming). All are waterline models, specifily desigen for the wargaming table. So some parts are a bit stronger, like the railing, to make sure the model will survive the wargaming table. All the 3D-print-files in this Blog you […]

Dutch WW2 3D-model desings

This page offers an overview of most of the Dutch WW2 (1940) Armoured Cars, Anti-aircraft guns, Artillery, Kazematten and some other smaller things used. All the models designed and printed by myself. All models are as historical correct as possible, based on original drawings and in many cases loads of photo’s. The design is mostly […]

replace FEP Film Anycubic Mono SE

When you use a SLA printer you will be forced to replace your FEP-Film after a while, the FEP film will wear out. It is not a difficult process, but it takes time and you need to make sure you follow the correct process. As I needed to replace my FEP film on my Anycubic […]

Boat Design using Blender – Part 1

For my Admiralen Class Destroyer the “Kortenaer” which I am designing and building in 1:100 scale I do need a number of extra parts, like a 27 foot whale-boat. In this Blog-series I will try to explain how to get from a 2D drawing to a 3D printed object using Blender and a 3D resin […]

Deploy a simple Squid Proxy Server on Azure

A caching proxy server (in this case: http://www.squid-cache.org/) can be used to reduce bandwidth and as the proxy will cache frequently-requested pages, can also help to improve response times. My use-case is a bit different as I need a way to test mobile devices to connect to the web-server running in Azure, but the web-server […]

How to 3D-print – part 2

In December 2020 I decided to get myself a Resin printer next to my FDM printer. I have been using a Creality Ender 5 for 1 year, which worked fine and delivered great prints in the quality I needed for Wargaming and the larger parts for modelship building. But at 1/100 or even 1/350 scale […]
