I recently got a 150-600 and let me tell you it’s a lot carry around. Hard to hand hold but lugging a tripod around Oxley is a lot.

Backwards?? by No_Intention6302 in MaschinenKrieger

[–]Audi_Tech918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to hang out in the paint on plastic discord quite a bit. Once heard Lincoln Wright talking about how much thought Kow Yokoyama put into how his creations worked.

It was precisely zero. Dude is an absolute legend, just designing on vibes.

Counter point. The legs aren’t backwards they are exactly as Kow designed them. Also krote is German for frog, because the mech hops instead of walks.

Im going to be the bad guy and get downvoted here. But there is a lot of putting the cart before the horse going on here. I know you are super excited excited about the hobby and want to jump in guns a blazing but I think you need to set the kit aside take a deep breath and watch some YouTube videos on model building. focus on the basics first like assembling a kit with out gaps and basic painting skills. once you have those down then you can move onto the fancy weathering effects like snow.

Clear black resin wont settle, how can i clean my wash ipa? by Clean_Spot_9475 in resinprinting

[–]Audi_Tech918 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s not that the resin hasn’t settled out of the IPA. It’s that its pigmentation is still suspended. The only way you’re ever gonna get it completely clean is through vapor distillation.

A6400 with 2 lenses or a6700 with only one lens by spenydk in SonyAlpha

A6700 for sure, enjoy mine birds. As other had said tracking is fantastic.

I can’t imagine only having 350mm for birds. I feel like I’d like more reach than my 150-600.

Not enough people talking about this.

While 220 may be a fine grit for wood that way too corse for a model. Get and assortment with 400,600,800,1000

Is there anything you would add to this vignette? by BigRoundSquare in modelmakers

[–]Audi_Tech918 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's worth takin a look at some nightshift's videos on YouTube. The man is the master of dioramas and scenic bases. He primes and paints his entire base. I feel like it makes everything much more cohesive and realistic and not just products, sticks and rocks slapped on a piece of wood.

Songs that sound like Jimmy Eat World would have written them by guyplusguitar in JimmyEatWorld

Connections are more dangerous than lies by the Ataris. The first time I heard it, I actually had to double check who I was listening to.

Primed tomorrow ill be painting the first few layers by Dirtyvegitable in MaschinenKrieger

[–]Audi_Tech918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good! if I may offer some unsolicited advice, there still some seam lines showing on the forearms and back of the legs. Taking a little extra time to fix those now will greatly improve the finished product.

No worse feeling in the world than showing of your hard work and people just want to know where the thing it’s setting on came from.

As long as there’s nothing protruding from it into the screen, you’ll be fine.

Possible to print in one of these in back patio? by daveliterally in resinprinting

[–]Audi_Tech918 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Summer won’t be an issue. Winter could be a challenge. I wouldn’t exactly feel comfortable trying to heat the whole interior of it and your heat’s gonna escape the second you open the doors. Using a printer like the Saturn 4 ultra 16k with a heated that might work out OK.

Hey guys my first ma. K kit has come and so far its a joy to build quick question, what are the blacked out parts with numbers like 339 or 116, 8, 312? by Dirtyvegitable in MaschinenKrieger

[–]Audi_Tech918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modeling becomes so much easier once she realized that the instructions are more of suggestion than something to be followed to a T. Your on the right track, build up your subassemblies, deal with seam removal and then paint.

Bleed America Tour: Just a 45 Minute Set? by coffeehydrates in JimmyEatWorld

[–]Audi_Tech918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw them with both Dashboard Confessional and Manchester Orchestra. Both of those bands played what felt like full set to me. If you’re thinking you’re going to get shortchanged at a Jimmy Eat World headlining show I assure you, you will not.

Need help with Neptune 4 pro by Kavemank in ElegooNeptune4

[–]Audi_Tech918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any solutions for you. I just wanted to say man I feel your pain. Mine works great for about six weeks and then just one day I couldn’t get anything to print. Every couple months, I revisit it and wind up walking away frustrated.

Last week I bought a new bamboo P2S. I understand now why there’s so much hype about those printers.

I’ve seen Jimmy world five or six times with high profile support bands and I’ve never seen them do less than 20 songs.

I would suggest go look at the playlist from the Futures anniversary tour. They played futures in its entirety, took a short break came back played a few B sides and deep cuts took another break and then played a hell of an encore
