This is an easy project; it will take nearly 7 hours to print. The windows are very small and you will find that some do not print well, this is why I've included more than you need. Each window comes in two pieces that are glued back-to-back for easy painting and installation. Snip away the fuzzies and clean up with a light coating of Acetone to dissolve the remaining strands. Use the Acetone very sparingly, to not soften the model too much, just brush on lightly. I exclusively print with PLA and have found that ordinary clear lacquer thinner (Nail polish remover) is a wonderful glue. Make a small test for yourself of two pieces of scrap PLA and give it a try. Let sit for 20 seconds and then try to break it apart. It leaves no residue and is applied with a small brush. I've been using lacquer thinner as a glue on styrene and PLA for years.

Oil colors are made from the finest color pigments available, color saturation and permanence are proven throughout the history of art. Thinned with Mineral Spirits you will get the most remarkable weathering and aging finishes you have ever seen. I feel reasonably assured that once you try Griffin Oils you will never go back to water based acrylics. Here's an interesting…
