STL files for my resin printed workable single link tracks are available via Patreon. / tankbrusher
I'd like to share my Track Painting Process with you guys. It's a kind of (me trying to do) a Tutorial and more topic focused video. Anyway, this is how I paint and weather my tracks in most of the upcoming builds.
Tracks take some time to process and look best if they are painted and weathered separate from the rest of the model. Mounting them back on only for last weathering and harmonizing steps... I do five sets of tracks in this video, two of them: Neubaufahrzeug and Panzer I Ausf. B are replacements for builds already completed. VK3601 as well as two more Panzer I tracks are for current projects you will see here on my scale modelling channel in short time.

After you have the tracks mounted, do you tend to glue them in place? I just mounted my first set of printed tracks, and they seem pretty fragile and flop around quite a bit. I’m wondering if fixing them in place is a best practice. Mine are T-Rex, so they have very delicate pins holding them together. Thanks.

I'm experimenting with using vallejo metallic copper dry brushed and used as a wash for when I scratch my tracks to get that coppery bronze manganese steel look over the burn iron it's actually a very nice look! I don't have a 3D printer but interested on trying one of your 3D printed tracks can you do a winterketten set for a stug?

@Tankbrusher 3 жыл бұрын

Interessting ideas, both of them! I'll have to experiment with different metal shades than on the next batch I do. I can do Winterketten, already have a few Pz III & 4 tracks prepared but I don't have a kit with Winterketten at hand to cross ceck them against. Write me a email (Channel->about page) and I'll order a fitting kit, otherwise chances are high that I'll simply forget to do so ; )

@EMTBAFV 3 жыл бұрын

Hi mate I've just noticed your comment from a while ago I wish I saw it anyway I'm still actually needing winterketten for the stug 3 to finish it off what's your email address and I'll send you an email? Is it in description? Im not seeing an email in the About section just your Facebook!? Thanks buddy

Hi, I am new to all of this so please excuse my lack of knowledge. Im wanting to become a patron but I have a resin printer my question is will your files work on it? Brilliant channel please keep doing what you do it helps us newbies so much.

@Tankbrusher 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Robert, If you have a half way good printer with an matrix led there shouldn't be any issues. I've started making educational video about 3dp for as well, this month I add one about dialing in the exposure. for example. I have constant feedback from my Patrons, so far I've not yet heard anything about my files not working. I use consumer grrade standard resin and a 35um grid printer so both 2 and 4k will work without problems. My files are adjusted for printablility and fit in general.
