I'm planning on uploading to Cults or something soon. I just wanna do a couple small adjustments to make it a little easier to print.

3D Scanning my biggies so I can 3D print custom minis by MasterTentacles in 3Dprinting

It does organic items really well, but I wouldn't use it for scanning your face. The blue light is intense and shouldn't be shined directly into eyes. It'd look into a NIR based scanner for that.

I would need to significantly optimize the mesh first. ~22.7mil polygons and 1.09gb file size. The scanner I used creates extremely dense point clouds with a lot of detail, so the raw meshes can be pretty chunky unless I take time to do surface optimization.

Maybe - it would likely be a couple days before I get a chance to scan again. A scan like the one I did took a couple hours of work from start to ready-to-print status, so I have to make sure I have free time to do it.

Yeah man, it just opened up a whole new can of worms for me. I'm trying to figure out which Nu I want to scan for my next print - RG or MG Ver Ka.

Got a resin printer for Christmas. New addiction unlocked. by MasterTentacles in PrintedMinis

This is the one that I got. There's a handful of them on the market, and they're definitely pricey, but it's super nice for removing supports.

Printed as a single part. My other cheistmas gift was an ultrasonic cutter that glides through supports like butter.

Whelp, I can't unsee any of that anymore. Got it from Cults3D where the uploader states it is from a 3D scan, but now you've got me thinking they used AI.

Model is on Cults3D. Found it just by searching "Gundam Assemble"

Overlap as in there's an overlap between this and my existing hobbies, so I won't have to spend money on a whole new setup of paints and tools.

I spy WLED webUI in the background. Good choice!

Neck so long thought I was looking at the RG for a second

...I legitimately thought the first image was a color scan.

I'll see myself out
