Kathy Millatt Modelling I love modelling everything from railroads to sci fi and creating worlds in miniature. I'm currently running a modelling water course.

The first set of shelves are in for Junk Room City. They still need screwing in and the threaded rod areas need levelling but it all works! I’ll put out some of the buildings tomorrow hopefully. I’m still painting the middle boards and their threaded rods won’t arrive for a couple of weeks.

So the clips are fixed easily with snips and the suppliers have agreed to credit the cost but I hit another snag… I mis-measured the holes because I forgot one element when I cut the holes. I’ve now got some longish slots which hopefully fix the problem.

Junk Room City is coming along and the shelves are getting paint… but I’ve hit a snag.
The clips don’t sit in the frame properly so you cannot get two in back to back like I’d planned on some shelves. The supplier is talking to the manufacturer and it may be a bad batch of clips…

I was asked for a photo of the inside of the Trailblazer from Star Wars Outlaws - Model by . Here it is in all its spray putty glory! It looks really cool and just like the trailblazer in the game.

This is the Trailblazer from Star Wars Outlaws designed by
I’ve nearly finished all the fettling although there may be a little more as you can see on the top here. It’s mostly glued now although that wasn’t the original intention… I just think it will sit together better this way.
If the weather is ok outside, next up is spray putty then a little more sanding probably.

The sewer district isn’t just sewers - this is a ventilation duct. Inspired by flexduct in his amazing ARCS Kickstarter, I made this flexible too. You can put it down in a grid or curves. Lids are optional.

Three projects from the weekend. The Trailblazer by from Star Wars Outlaws, my Sewer District test prints and Junk Room City. I’ll be talking about them all on the livestream.

The Trailblazer is a big ship! It’s a lovely model by I had used a new product for me, Liquitex acrylic modelling paste. Turns out it doesn’t dry sand at all. I prefer wet sanding but you need somewhere to wash it off. I can only get the hull in my bath!

I’m still working on Trailblazer. The white filler is Liquitex Acrylic modelling paste and I see a lot of sanding in my future to get rid of these layer lines on the shallow slopes plus any visible glued joints.

I’m working on a set of sewers that will probably become a Kickstarter…. This is a little sewer cleaner and it will make a nice encounter or block for the tunnels.

I’m still mulling over some important decisions in Junk Room City. As you can see, the shelf height is not high as I want to create a claustrophobic crammed in feel. However, a central ventilation/access column is a key design feature.
I planned to put theses ring landing pads relatively near the front but that will block so much viewing on those levels. The centre needs to be fairly open for access and to be able to see what’s on each layer.
There’s no rush and before I cut holes in each shelf, I need it to be right…

I’ve been working on the Trailblazer from Outlaws by
It’s a lovely model and you can hardly tell it’s printed in FDM but curves and shallow slopes always have a bit of stepping which needs filling and sanding.
I’ve also got some resonance issues which took a while to fix and need sanding.
I’ve been trying wood filler for the first fill but suspect I’ll do some more after priming.
Matte filament not only look is great printed but it stands so much more nicely than normal PLA.

The last few pieces are printing but I love this model by so much!

It's the Trailblazer from Star Wars Outlaws. It's a great little ship and looks great printed in matte filament. I did have some problems on my Bambu with resonance lines so I see some sanding in my future but once the last pieces finish printing, I hope to assemble it.
