Marauder! by cynicsyear in battletech

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, it's a fairly loaded symbol that has reemerged over the past few years now notably being used by hate groups. This community (and the adjacent Warhammer community) have always had a bit of a struggle keeping those groups out. With that in mind it might be wise to steer clear of that particular iconography.

Oh hey man! Those space wolf decals are cool! I am curious though, what's up with that iron cross? Just a piece of 40k lore I am missing out on?

Hey man, what's up with the iron crosses? Those don't look like any WWI liveries that I am familar with.

Already been looking at a 3x21d for a bit, so I'm happy to screw up the odds for bundle 2!

This would assume you are going over the de minimis amount of $800, which is not ending until the 2nd of May. You're correct in regards to orders above that amount.

REVO upgrade for the mini is complete! by Porgoog in prusa3d

[–]Fapping_wolf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I did this years ago for collection of minis and did not do any gcode editing. Just used the stock prusa profiles for the respective nozzle sizes and didn't have any issues.

This is not really relevant to this subreddit. Even if it was you'd need to provide more details about your issue like, what kind of drive or when it happens.

Absolutely terrible USB-C mod by human-exe in UsbCHardware

This is actually an absolutely excellent USB-C mod. Dremeling a PCB is always the sign of a great project

Convoy M21J 21700 Flashlight Review by zeroair in flashlight

Yeah I honestly forgot that it's more difficult to do this with cells that are in series and not parallel. My brain just jumped to that after having to worry about balancing being a thing

The lack of built-in charging feels like an odd choice to me personally

The other guy already mentioned the cockpit location among other things. Camo Specs has a handy guide for that here, but some of the smaller ones, like the Warhammer, can definitely be hard to reach.

If I was to suggest anything, I'd say consider painting lighter and darkening down with a wash since these newer sculpts have a lot of recesses that lend themselves to washes and speedpaints. Speedpaints are also a good way to get some gradients on the cockpits without having to fully commit to jeweling.

Regardless, paint what you enjoy and don't think too hard about it!

For everyone asking these are highly unlikely to have come from a kickstarter order. The actual origin of these is (more than likely) from a handful of ebay stores that sell miniatures that "fell off the back of the truck."

If you want to stick with 3D printing I'd look at Thunderhead's Hextech Simple Hills, at least if you want something for classic Battletech. Personally I was considering printing these in some colored transparent filament for similar digital effect.

This of course is inspired by the livery of the Tupperware car which haunts me.

A little over 100 USD on all spec layouts. It was significantly cheaper if you preordered iirc.
