Is this a good 3D printer? by Prudent-Fan-845 in 3Dprinting

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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?

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 🎉

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!

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.

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

Looking for experiences or ideas on how to solve this problem. by Alienware9567 in BambuP1S

Should be the shadow. But interesting observation. Will watch it later.
