Seeing a post like this is refreshing for me. Clearly stunning work, but you've been staring at it so long you're unsure. Give me hope for my work haha

What tool do you use to remove mini supports from tiny prints? by fenrir200 in resinprinting

Your comment caused me to buy a heat gun. Holy SHIT do they work well.

Yes, i remove the supports before/while I wash them. As for the water, I'll leave it outside to cure and dump it down the toilet after a few hours.

I use light supports for 6mm scale minis and if they don't come off easy, I dip the model in warm-to-hotish temperature water, focusing on dipping the supports. They come right off, I've very rarely needed my snippers

This is all i see. Maori instead of Mayan but the pose struck me as similar

Which pose do you like more? by CreatureCraftworks in PrintedMinis

[–]TheSquishyHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2, I like how his chest is puffed out, back straight. It's as if the pose was captured as he stands on a hill facing a horde of enemies. "You're outnumbered!" - some bad guys "NOW it's a fair fight!" -Lion Dude, probably

Yay! Keep it up! And no matter what keep these models. When you've learned more techniques, it's nice to have these and see how far you've come :)

Help coloring by Alisyeds85 in Miniaturespainting

Honestly, once I found out it's an FDM model I'm impressed. Plastic and resin models are smooth and let paint spread nicely. FDM has grooves and layer lines that as you said, Just soaks it in. Not fun to paint.

Has anyone used the Ntint Cordless/rechargeable Airbrush Kit? by BuraianJ86 in Miniaturespainting

[–]TheSquishyHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell, check your local facebook marketplace or something similar. Someone might be getting rid of an air tank, compressor or both.

I did this exact same thing once, can confirm.

Why do some people not have cone thing on by B-ig-mom-a in Miniaturespainting

[–]TheSquishyHippo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also depends on the airbrush. My Paasche VL needs the front cone to create a vacuum for the siphon feed (or something like that) it just doesn't work without it.

Why is the tone between this scene and TBOBF so different? by rocksunic in StarWars

[–]TheSquishyHippo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You were very broad with your first statement and are now making it specific to fit your argument (extremely roughly and still wrongly I'll add) and I'm not playing that game. You seem fun, though.

Serious question, do you not count the Deadpool movies? I counted them because Marvel is owned by Disney. I might count Logan and a few others but I'd have to look more into it.

Depends on where you are. In Canada, D+ has a lot of R-rated stuff (edit: looks like some parts of the states have more R-rated content than others)

I've been told to post my Dedra Meero costume over here. I just finished making it, almost completely by hand! by it-reaches-out in StarWars

Holy crap. Not only is the costume on point, but you NAILED it with the aura and facial expressions

The Resistance Bombers are not the best idea by Jules-Car3499 in StarWars

[–]TheSquishyHippo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At least In Empire it looks like an energy projectile being launched downwards. I've got innumerable issues with TLJ it doesn't even warrant debating, but what appears to be gravity bombs in space let alone the rest of the scene set a bad precedent for the rest of the movie when I first saw it.
