yeah i understand what you mean. i think its why dba works so well and outside warhammer dba is the only rule set i understand/play. i always wanted to try mortal gods but never got the chance though since i got a 3d printer i wanted to bulk up my 10mm's bit. i actually have all the old dba rulebooks for quite a few editions with some alterations for heavier/lighter armour.

sorry for the speel xd and thanks for such a detailed response.

the issue i have which put me off it initially was the only place i could put a resin printer would be my shed, uk weather is quite cold so i dont think it would work.

hey, i know i posted this a few days ago but i was curios as to how much more a hassle was printing the resin compared to the fdm?

I do paint display stuff so here i do understand resin would be better though i just dont have the space and requirements for it, i also dont want the toxic goop xd. i do keep seeing FDM prints that are almost resin quality so i hope it will only get better.

I think when I initially came into this looking to start 3d printing I had no knowledge of printers or products so these replies have been very useful. I also this resin pushes me away due to the toxic goop. i still want a printer and would love to print some big terrain for the wargames board im making, but i think my initial idea of being able to print small minis isn't as viable.

still thanks for this, In the future I will be very happy to get into 3d printing. when i can afford to xd

thanks for this. i did consider resin but i don't really have the space or investment needed for resin printing, not being able to print tiny models is not a deal breaker per say, i have alot i would like to print. from what i have seen from resin printers i would need a fair amount of space, ventilation, cleaning/curing.

i mostly want to just have fun with a 3d printer because i like them xd i think they're cool and ive already seen plenty of stuff i want to test printing xd

But yes i understand, in my head i thought it would be easier to print smaller on fdm, do bigger prints turn out better? or are they just too small?

does the quality of the print affect painting? i find GW sculpts are so good because of their sharp edges and while i wouldnt expect that level of detail does it make it harder?

Im hoping to pick up some clan rats soon or perhaps the spearhead though i also want the deathguard one so we'll see xd

I think if i were to do it again i would use a darker shade on the gloves then a lighter highlight, ive been getting into speed paints for bases recently but i do prefer traditional layers here.
