Review of 15mm Cetian Tank and GMF Vehicle STL Packs from DRS Models
Today, I'm doing my first review of some STL files. These files were purchased from DRS Models through Cults3D site. They are designed as 15mm models to be used in any setting you find appropriate. They can also be scaled up or down depending on your needs.
I printed a few models from both the Cetian Vehicle pack and the GMF Vehicle pack and am showing you those in this video. However, DRS Models has 20 different vehicle pack designs (available on Cults3D) that have a variety of designs from tracked, wheeled, and hover vehicles.
I printed these models on my Prusa I3 MK3S fdm printer. I used .15mm (.20mm for one of the GMF vehicles) layers with a extruder temp of 200 Celsius.
You can find these STL files and many others from DRS Models: cults3d.com/en/users/DRSMODELS
You can also check out DRS Models website: drsmodels.co.uk/
If you like this and would like to see more STL file reviews, please let me know in the comments.

If you would like some of these models for yourself, you can find them at: www.alternative-armies.com Let me know what you think of these and how you paint white armor. Pa...

In addition to the Gingerbread Gang, I also got some snowmen and a Christmas treent. I painted these up with a fairly basic paint scheme that I think anyone can replicate.

      Usually I can get away with a single coat. It depends on the color and how thin it is. Sometimes you need to do multiple coats to get an even finish. I’m painting these to play with and not enter a painting competition so I don’t thin the paint a ton. My goal is always a decent look that doesn’t take a lot of time.

      I don't see why not. Elmer's white glue typically has a higher water content, so you might run into some warping issues. I'd try it on one to see how it looks after it dries before I did a big batch.

      Thanks for the kind words. I painted these as a gift for my sister who is a big fan of The Walking Dead, so I was less concerned about fast and wanted them to look really nice. I used a white primer on these. I use an automotive primer I get at a local auto-parts store. I believe the brand is Dupli-color.

    hi, so your using flags that dont go in water to be loosened and slid off the backing paper, ( i dont know the name of that style application, but i had never seen flags not used in the same way as you did decals, soak in water and slide off then wrap around rigging. i have not been successful with the flag " decals" to fold and seal around rigging without all kinds of crazy things occuring ie, signal flags.. if i think i have one or two in place one might dry and slide (on its own weight ) down the upright rigging or flag " rope/cable" , any sort of glue i used on those tiny flags make the flag squish into a ball of waste, kinda melts the flag... my dad served on 3 different destroyers and i have built 2 display cases with the 3 different classes he served on and i wanted each to have the proper signal flag or ships code/name, usually in 4 flag combinations, , all square, 1/700 size ships , hell even hull numbers are hard , but i was able to get 1 or two ships with a flag or two (not american flags but signal flags naming the ship ) for some color in the display cases, i did this twice, since i have 2 sisters i built for them, 6 ships, 3 in each case in a diorama style, i tried the aluminum foil technique , i tried clear scotch tape, but that project i did a few years ago ruined building for me, until recently, i want to get back into building and looking for flag and decal help, as you can see is why i am watching your video, that british flag style i cant grasp, it seems very thick for 1/700 , and im not familiar with cruel seas, thanks for posting it

    The scale of these boats looks all wrong. The E-boats are way too small. The crew would be the size of a tiny ant. Especially compared to the tanker. It dwarfs the vospers end e boats.

    • @HerooftheTable
      @HerooftheTable Рік тому

      I think the Vosper and the S-boats seem reasonably scaled each other. The S-boats were about 114 feet and the Vospers were 73 feet. I do agree that as the game brings in larger ship classes, they are very much out of scale, but I assume that is the reality of trying to put those ships into a game that can be played on a table top.

    The problem with dice is that you are relying on chance instead of probability. There are many factors that go into battle and they are too numerous to list and to incorporate into either a historical or real time game. Even though some of the factors are known they have to be weighed and weighed relative to other factors. The end rest is that chance dominates the field of battle. For instance in this game the dice are rolled to determine everything. One player has to set until they get an "activation" or fire repeatedly before their adversary can return fire. Some of the point missed are technology, training, tactics, battlefield doctrine, shell time, maximum shell type load, and many other factors including many other factors. Also, the Russians are deploying with T-55's against US M-1's. This should not even be a fair fight! However, the M-1's are just going to set there and let the T-55's have at them. Just play a game and make it very simple.

      Using dice do refelect probability, where you need an 8 of a D10, that represects an 80% probability, the granularity of the probability steps is determined by the type of dice, a D6 represents roughly 16% steps, a D10 10% steps and D20 5% steps
