French supply wagon Gribeauval

[Salamander]

Great job!  Your 'weathered' paint job is amazing! Having just painted a (simple, straightforward) piece of Playmo myself for the first time recently, I can really appreciate the talent and skill to do something so much more complex.

Great tutorial!

I hadn't realised just how much was non-Playmobil until seeing your tutorial. Your 3D pieces turned out great.

I agree with Salamander's comment, so your tutorial clarified what Hauden-Lukas said about it being "not Playmobil" which I didn't really understand. The bed of the wagon and the canopy are PM, the rest is pieces created by 3D printing.

I think this is fantastic modelling! Not only does the painting make it look like it's made of real, weathered wood and metal, but (as Birdie said) the texture from the printing process adds to the similarity with real wood (seen on the axle of the fourth-from-last picture especially).

It's a personal choice as to whether one thinks this belongs on a PM website, but I love it!
I love those weird hats too!

Beautiful custom your soldiers should consider themselves very lucky it looks very realistic particularly the material on the cover and the paint job is great as well. Also loving those soldiers and the dog is beautiful
