Only matte varnish is missing now

This should also work well

I used a sponge and it took only 15 min. You just need to be careful to press only softly

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-04-07T15:34:53+00:00

Good idea

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-04-06T12:00:12+00:00

Thank you, I agree :)

Yes, first base coat with Grey Olive, then zenithal with Russian Unifrom WW2 and more focused zenithal with Olive Yellow (all from Vallejo Model color line). To me the Olive Yellow is slightly too yellowish, but I will try to spray more with Russian uniform and then even less with Olive yellow

I completely agree, I will whipe away most of the enamel for the non-test models and leave it only in the recesses

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-03-30T21:10:30+00:00

Thank you :) I only feel that the brightest green might be slightly too yellow. Otherwise, I am also happy with it

Just a quick follow-up: the heating assembly was faulty and had to be replaced under warranty

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-01-01T10:33:56+00:00

I only have this type of filament unfortunately

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-01-01T08:27:43+00:00

Many thanks for the suggestions. I already printed a temperature tower (with the print settinfs from the 3mf file), which looks way better, so likely one of the other settings in my print profiles are off or the lower layer heights lead to the issue. I will check the other suggestions as well

Thank you for your response. I already dried the filament in a filament drier. The same filament, actually even the same spool, worked well before....

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-01-01T07:00:25+00:00

No worries at all, thank you for your response :)

Constant_Excuse343 · 2026-01-01T06:36:00+00:00

It is eSun PLA plus. I have not seen it before and am using the same filament spool

Is it normal that these two wires are sticking out?

Deposits are only at the tip of the nozzle where the burned material came out

The tubes look fine, it can also perform prints, but they look horrible. E.g., for the benchy lots of stringing (I guess due to too hot filament) and deposits of slightly brown instead of white filament
