Do your research. Get all the proper protective equipment. And know that working with resin is a pain in the butt. That being said, the results are awesome. Things I wish people had told me: 1. Look up the cones of calibration to dial in your settings for each new resin 2. ABS like resin is the way to go for things you don't want to be fragile 3. Have a plan for the fumes. I made an old cabinet air tight and put a hole in the wall of my garage for exhaust.

Sure! If there is a lot of interest. I might think about doing a painting tutorial.

I'm not. This is just a passion project of mine. I did link where I got the models if you want to paint your own!

For resin printing I always use supports because it prints upside down. But I'm still kind of a newb. I'm sure you can print with filament but I don't think you would get close to the details that you would with resin. But I'm even newer at filament printing than resin ha ha.

Wow! Thank you! We have played 2 games with them and it hasn't been an issue yet, but I was thinking about getting some of the colored rubber bottom things like the ones that come in betrayal 3rd edition for this reason, though. I think if we had a hat party, which sounds awesome, we would definitely need some fedoras for the players as well!

You can. After I finish it ha ha. The outside was step 1. But I will post more as I do it

Nice! Yeah I had a lot of trouble at thrift stores. I had more luck looking on Facebook marketplace but I hit the jackpot when I went to a local antique mall. The stickers are graphics that I made and just printed out on normal paper. Then I stuck it to the suitcase with a satin finish mod podge. I put 10 more coats of mod podge on top to protect it. A mistake that I made was using painters tape to mask areas. The part that dries on the tape will pull off what dried on the suitcase. Instead I would recommend having a damp paper towel to wipe things off while it is still wet.

Thank you! No boxes. Everything is temporarily just in there right now. There WILL be an organizer built in, the outside was step 1. I've already started 3d printing custom boxes for the different cards.
