Of course, with 3D printed parts you’ll find that in many spots on the surface you’ll see the print lines. Then, sand down the excess, hardened gap-filler with sand paper, or whatever your preferred method is for smoothing a surface. I keep applying gap-filling product until there is a raise bit of the gap-filler above the two parts. Then, do it again if you still see the depression between the two parts.

Then, using your finger (dampened with water) or a rubber spreader, push the gap-filling product into the separated parts. The best way to use a gap-filler is to apply as much of the products as you need to cover the gap.

It’s harder to use on 3D prints (doesn’t stick as well). I think this is better left to plastic kits. Nowadays, there are a lot more economical 3D printers. The 3D printer I used is an Ultimaker 2+, which I purchased several years ago. But, you can check out this site for more info on the process. So, for the sake of brevity, I won’t go into that here. There are a lot of resources online about how to operate 3D printing software and hardware. I used the free, open-sourced software “ CURA” to slice the model into layers for the 3D printer. If you look closely, the model is missing a ton of details, but I try to add later with kit-based pieces from real sprues. The model I printed was a re-rendered 3D model of the Forgeworld Spartan Assault tank. To read more about the legality or ethics of 3D printing game models, check out this article. In either case, some of the work that you can see there is incredibly well-done. These individuals either got the 3D renders from someone else, or modeled the pieces using software themselves. And, if you were wondering, the only way that these 3D printable files of look-a-like models are there is that someone uploaded them. There are TON of Warhammer models on Thingiverse. You can find other cool Warhammer inspired tanks and vehicles here, too! Thingiverse is an open-source database that people can upload 3D printable files to, or download from. The model I printed was from a 3D printable file that I found on. These 3D printable files are listed as either “*.OBJ” or “*.STL” formats. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III recently saw the unveiling of a new trailer in the build-up to its release later this year.To 3D print anything, you need a 3D printable file of the model. As of September 2016, there have been one million 3D models uploaded and shared online using Sketchfab’s service, a figure which looks set on positive growth. There’s even a zoom-in/zoom-out feature that lets you examine the 3D artwork from up close. As of today, there is a total of six character models, each of them fully rotatable from all angles in crisp, clear resolution. Within the past few months, a selection of exclusive Dawn of War III 3D models have been releasing via the Sketchfab website.
