Mortar launcher: Also OxProps

There is also Empire3Dau for Mortar files although I've not checked how accurate they are, just compare them to what Oxprops has

This version has the legs, so that’s a plus. I’ll have to do some comparisons when I get home.

Nic is pretty detailed so hopefully the files are accurate.

 

After looking through the two and comparing images, I went with the OxProps file for the mortar. It's more detailed and looks more accurate. There were a couple things on the Empire3D file that were off or missing. So now I've got the files for the mortar and the backpack, and a friend of mine is going to print them for me. So stay tuned! :lol:

So after several hours of looking at paints and trying out different shades, I believe I’ve found a shade of yellow that is extremely close to the screen used paint. Here it is on a strip of white ABS so you can judge.

Compare to the yellow of the trooper

Yeah I’ll give the paint code to Jim when it’s time for the pauldron.

Be interesting to see how he does it, whether he has a color similar or have to paint/dye it that color.

 

Please don't tell me it's Rustoleum, I HATE that paint :laugh1:

I’m pretty sure it was Krylon actually. I’ll look when I get home.

Sooooo I did check and it is Rustoleum. Painter’s Touch. :laugh1:

Krylon was the white paint I bought.

It was the closest match I could find! If I could’ve found it in another brand, I would have bought it!

 

Put the E-11 away!
