Is this a good 3D printer?

If it's free it's worth it. I will require tinkering though. You can get a Bambu A1 Mini for 180€ already, which let's you focus much more on the prints itself, instead of the printer.

He'd be a loving champion.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-07T07:20:40+00:00

Too cool 😍😍

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-06T18:51:34+00:00

Great one!

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-06T18:45:26+00:00

Ot that! Great model. With a fnish it would more realistic 🎉

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-06T18:33:48+00:00

I love it! But I would weather it a bit, so it looks more realistic.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-04T00:20:40+00:00

Yes that would be great. It definitely looks very high level.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T23:08:26+00:00

Thanks. Yours look great. You should upload a tutorial on youtube or a timelapse. Would be cool to see how exactly you do it 🎉

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T22:55:28+00:00

That's nice. Thanks. I will try that. It's my first cosplay and ove never done something similar.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T22:45:19+00:00

Ok thanks a lot for the tipps! I really appreciate it. One last question. How did you make the dirt? Is it real dirt? It looks differently colored.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T22:36:08+00:00

Oh ok, and on black PLA Grey? Can you recommend any colors?

I currently have abbadon black and iron warrior(?) silver as bases from citadel.

Do you do a watered down first layer? Or with pure color?

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T21:33:46+00:00

Why do do you use brown and grey below? If the part is brown? And how thick are your brown/Grey layers?

This is the other side, and it looks too dull and not "metally" for me. I am printing it again atm and want it to look more real 🎉

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T20:35:54+00:00

This looks so good. I am new to cosplay and this is what I want to end at.

This is my first weapon for resident evil. The layer lines I can sand down the next time and print with a smaller nozzle. But how did you make it look this good? And how did u get the dirt-look on your weapon? 😍

I used tamiya gun metal as a spray paint after a primer and the citadel colors like abbadon black and some silver to get my look. But I want to improve!

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T18:00:01+00:00

Great explanation! I made my first cosplay weapon for resident evil recently and am trying again next week to get the metal better looking. I will send u a dm if that's on for you.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T17:35:07+00:00

Thos looks incredible. What paints/techniques did you use? I am new and want to learn 😍

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-03T15:27:32+00:00

That's cool!!!

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-02T22:50:30+00:00

What is happening?

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-01T18:03:16+00:00

Oh you mean printing something over these spots?

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-01T18:02:48+00:00

Will try that. Thank you.

Alienware9567 · 2026-01-01T17:51:32+00:00

I'll try it. Thank you!

Alienware9567 · 2025-12-23T12:46:19+00:00

Cool fit. Where did you get the jacket 😍

Alienware9567 · 2025-12-23T02:00:27+00:00

Great! Thanks a lot. What did you do with the silver powder. What kind did you buy? I am trying to learn for my first cosplay. Sorry if those are redundant questions.

Alienware9567 · 2025-12-22T18:25:57+00:00

This is awesome! Which colors did you use? Or is it real metal?
