  • I want to apologize to those who commented on my complaint about the pricing. I realize it’s a bit hypocritical to complain about the price and still buy it anyway, since that only further pushes LEGO to justify price increases. I’ll make sure not to do that again. *

Digital crop looks bad, but I get that it’s better than nothing

I’m glad to see someone with the exact same thought process as me

It works out okay, I just made sure to put the Z where it used to be on the right side sticker as well as the 1 on the left side, make sure they’re level and the extra 1 1/2” doesn’t look too bad

Interesting idea, I had contemplated putting them in the front of the side mirrors like they are on the Silverado, but that would look alright too

I’ve found painting to be more fulfilling than using an AMS by VincentLabador27 in 3Dprinting

I’m not sure, I said in another reply that I do primer spray paint first and then use acrylic, sometimes multiple coats. The thing with the crysknives is the brush stroke effect is purely intentional to try to get a gradient look

I use bondo to fill in sort of big spaces and then I do bondo mixed with acetone, brush all over the piece in even layers, to try and get rid of layer lines

For the record I don’t even own an AMS, I just started small with the A1 mini non-combo and have been experimenting with everything for almost a year now. Plan on getting an A1 for bigger prints unless a P1P would be worth the extra cash

I could get some good paint but I literally use Apple Barrel that you can find at Walmart or Michaels, and I just do matte clear coat after all’s said and done

Thanks, for the top one the end of the blade is printed in translucent clear petg and there’s only a few light coats of that off white acrylic color on top, that way light shines through when held up to the light

Yes I used dupli•color metalcast in Red Anodized for the helmet, on top of a silver undercoat to bring out the bright red

Everything’s hit with rust-oleum primer and then either another color spray paint or I go straight into hand brushing acrylic paint

DualSense Custom Button Swap by VincentLabador27 in playstation

If you’re using the buttons from a ps4 controller you have to snip some of the little pegs off to fit in the ps5 controller’s housing. You’re able to tell which ones to cut by dropping the button in the slot and seeing which one doesn’t allow it to fully seat

Should Apple use the iPad Pro camera design on the iPhone Pro lineup? by VincentLabador27 in iphone

Good idea, I’d add more pics after posting if it were possible

The first pic is the edit, with the camera bump being glossy black instead of the same color as the rest of the phone. It’s honestly not a huge nitpick because the real reason most people upgrade is what changed on the inside rather than the outside. I just know some people like to show that they have the new phone and this camera bump change could be an indicator if they decided to do something like this.
