I did some test-prints for a friend in Hungary, hoping to convince him to buy a printer :lol: He and a mate produce wheels and sell resin copies so I thought they could benefit from seeing some Photon S prints and what they're capable of for prototyping etc. SO we ended up doing a trade, I test-printed their Mercedes and 5 spoke rims, plus some other stuff I had laying around and sent them over.

Aus post lost the package for a month, so I ended up getting a refund of the postage and the 'worth' of the parts, so i re-printed all the parts and sent another package to poor Balazs in Hungary... fast forward another couple weeks and the original first package turns up in Hungary... in a town like 4 hours away from Balazs :lol: The guy who received it tracked Balazs down on Facebook and sent it to him. That first parcel went on quite the journey. But it arrived there eventually and ol mate painted up some of the wheels around :lol:

I also test printed some AC Courreges wheels the dude 3d drew, I painted these ones up, not as cleanly as I woulda liked though. I need more practice or I need to remember some of the Gunpla detailing methods I've been seeing :lol:

Courreges was (is still) a French fashion company who teamed up with a Japanese wheel manufacturer to make some funky wheels. I love em, so kooky!

He sent over a sticker as part of the trade for 3d test prints, those european guys have some great style I rekon.

Some nice wheels there but the AC ones have got me wondering what you put them on.
