from an admittedly not so random question now I think about it to a 3D print to this, now available from Ainsty as the Mechanot... and it's the same shiny silver problem I had with the Giant Robot, shading and super shiny are beyond me so they have more of a lived in air to them...I've change a bit from the Ainsty model/original design (which has three sensors in a triangular pattern) - I want to do some identifiers on the front panel, so filled that in with g/s - need to work on those decals at some point... another divergence is the area below the antenna... I did toy with paint in the white balls (or could have done some conversion work to add them in), but decided to inject even the slightest bit of colour in there so tried for a pale blue glow to suggest a power source within...
have also left the bases for now, as I'm entertaining ideas on doing a space station build again... so they could be deck plate or they could be dirt/gravel and grass...so, pending decals and deciding on the base, done for now...
