Repeat until happy.

Almost there. I've sanded through to 400 and I think I'm ready to start laying down colour coats. It's not perfect but it's pretty damn good and that's all I can ask for from something based off a energy drink promotion.
 
Here we are at the end of another project and we've got another prop for the booth when conventions start being a thing again. I'm not sure if this is the first completed VK78 Commando out there in internetland but I'm happy with the build and glad that a bunch of you fine folks can follow along.

EDIT: Mangler for scale.

I have been playing around with this lately and ended up re-slicing and changing the shroud for a smaller than 300m printer. The existing files that Turbo has don't allow for easy alignment. I sliced this in a way to make it much easier to get a good alignment and even hide part of the piece line.

(Turbo suggested I throw these up here)
