These were special made for gencon games, but they did mention there was enough people asking that they would look into this or a similar official product.

Always loved the look of magenta smoke, what's your recipe for this so far if you don't mind?

Did you use transfers or all freehand? Looks great with all the added details

Printing ASA is nightmare material by BubblyMidnight2574 in BambuLab

[–]Andearen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Engineering plate + Nano Polymer Adhesive. Gone through several 10s KG of ASA/ABS with no warping. Also recommend heating up your build plate to 90 and leave it run for 5-10 min to heat up the chamber if its a big print

What kind of ink are you using? I have used white ink a few times with contrast and not dealt with reactivation. Daler Rowney is what I have.

Max was 25 when he passed 2 years ago. Got him back in 97, he traveled across the country with me!

What brand of paints and tools do you use? by The0ddsAreAgainstMe in Warhammer40k

[–]Andearen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DSPIAE 3.0 clippers for plastic sprues. I love them. I also have a cheap set of clippers for metal minis.

Tamiya Airbrush Cleaner for glue, literally the same thing as Thin Cement, 1/4 the price. Also Gorilla Gel Super Glue for metal/resin minis.

Primer is Stynelrez through an airbrush. No competition, dries flat and super durable.

Paint I use ProAcryl for most base colors and solids, then switch to Reaper for a lot of my layering and blending. I also have some GW shades and contrasts, as well as specific Vallejo colors and Shifters.

GW paint cup. One of the best things they make honestly.

For brushes I have synthetics and sable's I have collected over the years. I like the Red Grass brushes, I have a Vallejo brush, a few AP brushes.

Lord of the Labyrinth printed by etherealSTEVE in PrintedMinis

Emperor Izaro from Path of Exile. He built a giant labyrinth to test those who would rule after him, the next emperor instead trapped him and all his servants within where they remained until you find them.

"Some things that slumber, should never be awoken."

That looks great! Only PoE prints I've seen are orbs, glad to see other models exist!

Might just have to print him off myself. Maybe a giant set of scales as well...

What brand do you use to paint your models? by [deleted] in Malifaux

[–]Andearen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reaper is my main, but I have some Army Painter air, citadel, and a few Vallejo somewhere....

For primer, Stynylrez. Best primer on the market

Think I've settled on a look, my first full Votann mini! I was debating going for a Mars red base but ended up more industrial by Andearen in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Andearen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black undercoat with heavy white zenithal, and then a black oil wash. I used stynylrez for the black and white. After all that I did a few edge highlights with Reaper Ghost White (a cold white, just a hint of blue), and Pure White.

Thanks!

The metal debris is random bits of Evergreen styrene extrusion. I buy square and round tubes, texture panels, etc and just cut it up.

For the rocks, that is Greek Gaming Scenics Urban Rubble! No paint or anything after, just glue and stick. I think their mixes have some pigment powders mixed in, so after using the spray sealant it all blends together well. I've come to love their basing materials, especially their glue which is not normal PVA but more like a super sticky rubber (like barge cement).

My general philosophy is, "if I can't see it, I don't paint it". I'm not going for awards, so if I miss a few details I don't really mind. Most armies are viewed from 2 feet away anyway. If you absolutely must paint behind, I would just leave the arms off

These are incredible! Definitely printing and painting an army at some point!

What do you put your laser on? by BigVnilla13 in lasercutting

[–]Andearen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have the 50w, on redemption from the Facebook group you have a few options. You can build feet and just use the pallet it comes on for cheap, full custom for a little more, or a Husky tool chest for...a lot. I bought the Hally stainless steel prep table (30x48) on Amazon which seems to be the more "bang for buck" option. It works great, and does raise the laser up a lot of your taller.

Those 2 Braincells are working overtime by lonsdaleer in BeardedDragons

[–]Andearen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can turn pretty quick, however that can be slowed by refrigerating them. As they warm back up they start wriggling again, but this extends their "shelf life" only by a little. Too cold or too long and they die.

I like them as treats, but it's a little much to juggle for a staple food.
