3D Printed Miniatures Finally Amazing? | Anycubic Photon S

Sponsored by Anycubic: https://www.anycubic.com Buy the Photon S: http://bit.ly/miniac-anycubic DISCOUNT CODE: "ACMINI" 3D printing is an emerging medium relevant to the miniature painting hobby. At first it was shrugged off as low quality or too expensive, but now with these consumer level resin 3D printers, relatively high quality prints can be in your hands. Let's check it out!

If you like the dwarf you should check out hero forge. You can design some nice mini.

Cool. You did a pretty good job in getting started there. In order to minimize mess (I use the Photon Cubic) I tend to have paper towels below anywhere I work with the resin which I immediately discard. I also have a metal table which is easier to clean. I also use a battery rotary tool to smooth down areas from the supports (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075N68KRZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1). One thing, as we are getting into winter, the ideal temperature of the resin should be 25C/77F. There are some hacks out there (which I'm still to try) on making sure the resin vat has the right warmth. This is important for more finicky resins (flexible, rubber, etc..)

I'm afraid of watching this video as I fear I might want a 3D Printer after it.

I had some serran wrap under the printer during my trials so I didn't goop up the area. Also was running a space heater to keep the area warm!

I've dabbled with hero forge a little bit. They suffer from the "heroic scale on crack" issue I mentioned in the video a little bit.

i like the options it presents for dioramas. if you were in possession of a resin printer at the time, do you think any part of Homecoming would have been printed?

Maybe some ornate crosses for the doors and the one on top of the church. Maybe even the doors themselves? That's a good question!
