I spent about 4 months on the Reclaimer in my spare time. This was my first attempt to custom paint a scale model, so some of that time was learning how the airbrush worked and studying youtube tutorials on painting and weathering techniques. My first large Star Citizen 3D Print was the Starfarer, and I decided to print this at the same scale. The Buccaneer is also printed to the same scale, and has tiny magnets embedded in it for the Reclaimer Claw to hold it.
