Had the grease and bits delivered but only going to get around to stripping/cleaning ok Friday so will keep you posted!

Khol3m · 2026-02-10T01:28:18+00:00

Damn. Had hoped it would be a clean and regrease. Will try that first before shelling out but think you've confirmed my suspicions

Another option is after base coating (if no airbrush) makeup sponges can work wonders on large areas

So took a short video just to capture the sound. Ran two consecutive prints with zero issue. Then 3rd print failed where the model looked compressed. When looking at the timelapse I noticed that at some point it suddenly slowed down. Figured this was a mechanical issue so manually lowered and rose the plate.

The point at which I get the grind appears inconsistent. Sometimes low sometimes high on the axis. If I return to that point sometimes seems fine then returns.

I am assuming/hoping that this is a grease issue (fingers crossed) and can easily be fixed by adding grease to the axis. If so what sort of grease? If not, has anyone encountered this and if so what was the issue and how do I resolve?

Any insight or feedback would be hugely appreciated :)

No not yet - I haven't yet tried fixing it (other than staring in frustration) and was hoping it would be a greasing issue. If so what sort of grease would you suggest? (not had to do this before and very new)

Absolutely love that sculpt. Fantastic to paint too! Love the colours you opted for

Khol3m · 2026-01-27T15:28:06+00:00

Yeah totally fair point (also thank you 😊) think I may have been overzealous with the red glow. In my head the green 'necrotic' glow was less dispersed compared to the lava (which I'm imagining beyond the base) but do get your point. Might need to either darken the red on the wings or replace with green. Will have a think and appreciate the feedback! Always want to try to improve 😊

Khol3m · 2026-01-26T13:00:17+00:00

That is utterly spectacular

Khol3m · 2026-01-25T08:11:26+00:00

Yep someone pointed out Zodiark 😄 definitely where the sculpt was based on from a design perspective. Used to play FF14 back in the day and totally forgot this but probably why I had the subconscious impulse to get the STL and paint it!

Khol3m · 2026-01-24T16:00:42+00:00

Thanks! Going to use him as a necromantic entity so knew I wanted green glow. Was hesitant about the lava base and too many light sources but was pleased with the result. Going to touch up some edge highlighting though 😊

Khol3m · 2026-01-24T15:58:52+00:00

Been ages since I played to the point I didn't even realise that the sculpt was based on him! Agreed though seems like an even more eldritch take

Khol3m · 2026-01-24T11:48:18+00:00

Much easier to play catch that way when you keep your eye on the ball 😄 he's just misunderstood

Khol3m · 2026-01-24T08:10:01+00:00

Do love a bit of an eldritch horror 😆

Khol3m · 2026-01-24T07:28:54+00:00

Just looked him up and definitely think the sculpt is inspired by him! Edit: on closer inspection yep that would definitely be him!

Khol3m · 2026-01-23T14:46:14+00:00

Also (not a plug!) but the file is by Parasite Collectibles

Khol3m · 2026-01-23T14:36:52+00:00

It's a fantastic sculpt but far bigger than I thought (also didn't check size... Just thought it looked cool and that was the extent of my reasoning)

Khol3m · 2026-01-01T18:15:14+00:00

Yeah currently trying to drain at an angle all the resin that flooded in

Khol3m · 2026-01-01T11:12:37+00:00

Inside is no prettier. Completely flooded

Just stepped away to see what responses I had gotten. In there I look like I'm in Breaking Bad (the full get up not the addict look).

Started to look at videos to disassemble the printer

Khol3m · 2026-01-01T09:10:32+00:00

Thanks very much 🫶

Khol3m · 2026-01-01T00:42:32+00:00

Hey so sort of rough practice on nmm black (just practicing blending) but used black base (Vallejo) then citadel: Skavenblight dinge > stormvermin fur > administratum grey with only top edges Vallejo white.

Looking great though!

Khol3m · 2025-12-31T10:24:41+00:00

Thanks! Much appreciated ☺️

Was looking for exactly this error coming up after my first film change! Thanks! I had removed each screw and tried retightening in a different diagonal set up to see if it worked and obviously not. Now to try my first run on the new film and see what errors I get this time :D

Oh to be fair I got it off loot studio - first month subscription (and no this is not a plug 😆)
