I've been trying to paint more of my 3D print designs and finally got to put some on the table. We were playing Space Weirdos rather than 40k, but I figured you folks might like to see all the old school 40k terrain on the board.

I still have the original stuff those prints were based on and it is weird not seeing it as just plastic gray. It looks good!

Looks fantastic! So refreshing! How long did it take to paint it all?

Thanks, not too long. I used sponges to paint most of it fairly quickly, it's a technique that works great for painting 3D printed scenery.
