An interesting technique where they cover an object in iron powder and then rusts it out to make it look like metal.

I’ve definitely got to start getting into post-print processing like this.

Yeah me to. At the moment I’ve got polishing almost sorted but I need to learn to airbush and paint.

Absolute brilliant. Going to print it but not sure if I will be able to get the finish as good. Doubt it.

I’m going to print it and cheat by printing it in magnetic iron from ProtoPasta.

Enhancing a print afterwards with paint is really quite satisfying. I’ve done a bit myself and you start to see raw prints as a bit plain.

It’s just a real pain that it requires skill :wink:
