Printed in PLA with a Bambu A1, 0.2mm nozzle/0.4mm for the base. Took a bit over a week of printing and painting to finally get it finished.

Vallejo Game Color paints.

Wet look achieved by using a Gloss varnish.

Dome off, unfortunately I don't have a resin printer to get an acceptable result for a transparent dome.

Bonus Xenomorph just lurking.

What did you do for smoothing out the print lines and support remnants? Looks awesome and I've not successfully painted on PLA, assume a primer base?

Sanding and filing mostly. Also helps that it's printed with 0.06mm layer height with a 0.2mm nozzle. The model is also very well constructed in lots of parts to minimize any supports needed.

No primer base actually, just painted wholly in black and then 4-5 other colours on top of that with drybrushing and similar setup but other colours for the base.

Who knows if someone will make one of those. I just print and paint.

They're available on gambody.com, not free though. Got mine during a sale a few weeks back.
