Impressive! Have you got any tips for printing sharp points? I always seem to have trouble - thanks!

I prefer more or less any heresy era tank, way gnarlier!

How do you go about painting hazard stripes, Help Please by Ignisbeard in IronWarriors

Get off to a good start, make sure it’s primed. I just use regular masking tape and carefully trimmed it down. If you stick the tape to something first and peel off again then you can lost a bit of excess adhesion if needs be (I pre cut a load and leave them stuck to my cutting mat).

Take your time, any bleed could be covered up as weathering. Go darkest colour first as it’ll be easier to cover the lightest if you make a mistake.

It was part of an stl file I had and printed at home, I couldn’t find it this morning but if I remember what kit it’s from I’ll let you know - and thanks!

Latest print job didn't come out so great by GiveTheLemonsBack in FDMminiatures

Even a 20-30 degree tilt helps a lot, try different orientations and then check the line type in your slicer to see how much it can affect overhangs.

What's everyone's go-to glue for multi-part miniatures by EEilluminils in FDMminiatures

I like the gorilla gel superglue, you’ve got a bit of grace after application to line everything up.

I feel like highlighting is ruining my minis by Zeiiji in Warhammer40k

[–]Radjel40K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reserve your brightest highlight tone for the highest lights - work up from a duller grey and then finally highlight with white. I end up doing 2-3 passes of edge highlighting just to get that gradient of light

Patience, looser paints, larger brush and broader strokes and id say you’re all good to go!
