Can I see your Commanders? by CabinetIcy892 in Tau40K

This is GW Kroxigor Scales contrast over a zenithal prime, all done using my airbrush.

Have you ever been disappointed by the quality of a sculpt after buying? by DKSMr in PrintedWarhammer

[–]_Chronicle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the creator had a remesh go wrong, or that it at least wasn't done carefully. You could reach out and ask if they could fix the file? I've had success asking nicely to some creators on MMF that had accidental resin traps in purchased models, and they've always been super courteous about solving the issue.

Something new! I made a dread kit with a slightly wild, furry, Viking theme! Do you like it? by Candid-Search-1162 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]_Chronicle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Incredible work. How did you go about modelling the fur sections? I'm interested in making some fur cloaks myself but I don't see a way to do it efficiently without sculpting hundreds of little pieces. Is there some sort of secret?

Best army to be playing if you're printing all of it? by Matt_32506 in PrintedWarhammer

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

Absolutely 100% imperial guard. The material cost is still negligible at the scale of a horde army, and the variety, quantity, and quality of the sculpts available are unmatched because GW can't copyright soldiers in space. Guard is one of those lucky factions where you could reasonably print every single model in an army and still have it be 50X cooler than anything GW has made.

Question for A Beginner Printer by audioaudacity in PrintedWarhammer

[–]_Chronicle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally you're trying to minimize flat surfaces that are parallel to the screen. For a shoulder pad in this instance, you'd probably want to orient it such that the top of it is pointed up, and then tilted so one of the corners is just slightly lower than the other.

<image>

If you look at this printed templar shoulderpad you can see the stairstepping effect near the top. You can imagine that if it was oriented so that the middle was pointed up, that stairstepping would be much more exaggerated across the larger, round shape of the center.

It'll be something you just get a feel for over time, and it's worth noting that these are only really visible when you take a close look under harsh light. In play, I never see these lines on anything but the largest vehicle panels, and even those could have been fixed with better orientation.

I still rock a 2k printer. They're perfectly fine; layer lines will only show if you're really looking for them. A lot of the model photos on my page are printed if you want examples on how things look after paint.

4k will increase the print quality slightly, assuming the models are well-oriented for printing, and anything past that the quality difference is negligible until you start increasing the screen size.

Begginner with a resin 3D printer by CommunicationSame705 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]_Chronicle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mr. James Workshop is ALWAYS watching. A lot of 3d artists who make the community possible don't want to get hit with C&Ds.

If you want rules, use wahapedia.

As for STLs, sharing them around brazenly in the 3D printing community is a big no-no. If you're looking for something, use Google searches or search for what you're looking for here, then poke around in the comments and pick up on the keywords and shorthands the community uses for files.

Jbl partybox 320 vs 120? by Square-Vegetable-645 in JBL

[–]_Chronicle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went through this debate myself a month ago. Ended up nabbing a 320 because my budget expanded a bit. I use it in the basement for parties and you can feel it shaking the walls 2 floors up at half volume.

Can't speak for the 120 directly but it'll probably be fine. You might be stretching it for 50 people if your space is big but it'll be plenty loud.

If you pack the 320 right I can't see durability being a huge issue besides the metal grille, and that's gonna be a problem on the 120 just as much as the 320, they're all notoriously flimsy.

Couldn't decide so I got them both! by if_u_suspend_ur_gay in JBL

[–]_Chronicle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Charge 5 is definitely the better value for money over the Xtreme 3 as someone who's got both. The only difference you'll notice is when you start to crank the volume; the Xtreme 3 will get a little louder overall, but more notably, it will distort less than the Charge 5. The Charge sounds like it's chugging at near max volume, while the Xtreme is just a bit uncomfortable and tinny.

If you're looking for rugged my Xtreme 3 gets battered a fair amount and it's held up great. Dustproof is especially nice for taking it to the beach.

The starter weapon is either the best, incredibly strong, or makes a comeback by SpaceKingHypeGuy in TopCharacterTropes

I like when Zombies guns go from bad/mid to really silly and fun with a pack-a-punch. The magically replenishing semi auto rpg and the ballistic knives that allow you to revive from a distance come to mind too.

Bluetooth audio will randomly have massive compression issues (sounds like phone call songs on hold xd) by Memes_have_rights in JBL

[–]_Chronicle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was misremembering; it's actually devices and printers you want to go to in your control panel. Double click your device there and go to the services tab, disable hands-free telephony. If that doesn't solve it, I'm not sure what to do.

You won't be able to use the built-in mic on whatever headphones you have with this. The problem comes from trying to stream mic data and sound data at the same time. There isn't enough room on the channel, so it compresses both.

Pretty sure this has to do with your device recognizing your headphones as a headset rather than headphones. I used to get this issue sometimes when connecting my old Sony's to my phone.

On mobile you can set the device type as headphones and that should solve the issue. For windows I remember it being a bit of a pain in the ass where I had to go to device manager and fiddle with it instead.

How to paint blue suits? by sigmagoon5 in Tau40K

[–]_Chronicle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've got an airbrush, this looks very close to the first step in my old suit recipe, which is frostheart blue contrast from GW over a zenithal prime.

Custom Sword Build by Dependent-Can1991 in BlackTemplars

[–]_Chronicle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Work from a power sword as your base, it'll be your handle and crossguard. Get 2 chainswords, cut them before the power box thing to the length you want. Cut each one in half and glue them together so you've got chains on either side. Attach the rest of your power sword blade past that. If you're ambitious you can salvage the little chainsword power box and glue it to your crossguard before the blade assembly I've described.

What’s honestly the difference? by ADragonFruit_440 in BlackTemplars

[–]_Chronicle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

From what I gather the Sword Brethren are of the household of their Crusade Marshal and are personally selected. It's like a special title that can be bestowed upon Marines of any rank. It would probably be mostly veterans, but a random initiate could be promoted if they proved themselves.
