    I figured out how to hold my vehicles during painting. Normaly I drill two small holes to bottom of model and glue bent wire in them. After painting is done, I pry them off with pliers (because I am too stupid to use debonder that is sitting in next room :D ).
    3D prints, I mostly hollow out to save resin and relieve supports, so I can't really drill into that.

    Behold my solution:
    I glue small nut into tank and after glue sets, I can screw that onto bolt on my holder.

    Nut then stays in forever. :D

    That's a very clever solution.

    While ago, kiddo asked for Ankylosaur model to paint. After I brought it home, better half melted on how cute the model is and asked me to get one printed for her as well. She sat down and after one throwaway mini to get used to speedpaints, she painted it.

    This is a family thread now, since whole gang has model pictures here. :D

    She did two try-out minis, roughly 11 years ago.

    That's very cute. A great paint job.

    Impressive. She's very talented being able to paint so well with such little experience.

    I went to friend for fresh batch of prints.
    Small collection of Modiphius HARDWAR. Few terrain features and two forces. For start, I chose Chinesse Democracy Army Detachment and Razorbach Striker Unit.

    Razorbachs came with some minor print issues, so no picture yet.

    After playing some games with kiddo, he loves small tanks and mechs. I promised him that I'll be playing HARDWAR with him, I'll just streamline rules a bit.

    On plus side, terrain looks properly sized for Epic Warpath as well... also, I bought some Mundus Imperialis prepainted terrain to use for Epic Warpath, so I can choose to fight in city or on farmland.
