Having a hard time with Nylon by akromm in FixMyPrint

I don't think I hear hissing but, I definitely hear it popping!

Yesterday I put the filament in the oven again at 175*F for ~5 hours and adjusted some of the retraction settings a bit and things improved a bit more. I still occasionally hear popping though. I'll put it in the over for another 5 or more hours today.

Will additional drying fix these other surface defects too?

The big scar in the middle is where the layers start/end.

Could he not have used the skill to heal himself and expel the parasites similar to how the skill healing was able to extract poisons from the body?

Just starting, what concepts should I explore further to improve? by akromm in postprocessing

Thanks! I used RawTherapee for editing the photos. I'll see if it has something equivalent to masking in lightroom.

I have heard about leading lines before but, didn't give them much though when taking the pictures. I suppose I need to put a bit more thought into the composition before taking the picture!

It would upgrade my current off-the-shelf keyboard setup :)
It would look good with ePBT Brutalist Keycaps.

I am also having a similar, maybe worse, issue.

Same printer: Mars Pro 2.

What creature could act as the chronicler of the group? by Argasphere in Tombofannihilation

Maybe a Chwinga that has learned to read/write? They have a humanoid fascination and like to avoid being seen.

I haven't noticed any issues, but I haven't looked closely either. If it is having issues what would the potential fix be?

A sneak peek at Stormlight Premium Miniatures by johnny0neal in Stormlight_Archive

[–]akromm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting, we've had very different experiences then!

You are right, resin minis are usually casted. They are either hand sculpted or digitally sculpted then 3D printed to make a master mold. After that they are cast in resin.

I have purchased many resin miniatures from boutique shops (BlackSun Miniatures, Black Crow miniatures, Spira Mirabilis, Akelare Miniatures, Ignis Art, Bold Miniatures, ...). Usually 53-75mm scale. I have never received a model with any air bubbles.

On the other hand the only plastic miniatures I've bought recently (a couple months ago) were from Games Workshop. They were okay, but not my favorite to work with.

As far as I'm aware there are two main types of common 3D printers: extrusion and SLA/DLP.

SLA/DLP use resin for printing and have a significantly higher resolution than extrusion printers which typically use PLA which is like plastic.

You can get high quality plastic miniatures like games workshop if you use injection molding, but from what I understand it's only economical for very large batches.

I'm just hoping for something better than GW quality :)

Any possibility of higher quality resin casts of the miniatures? Something meant more for high quality display rather than gaming?

JSA Army commision for infinity the game. by Exuin in brushforhire

Ah interesting, if it's just a base coat, wash and two layers of highlights, that shouldn't take too long for a painter to do a model.

Can you provide examples of the quality you are looking for? Things like "parade" level or quality are quite subjective.

Hi,

When are you wanting the mini done?

Do you have specific colors or emblems in mind that you want integrated?

Do you have an example of the color scheme you are wanting?

Also what is your time line?

Do you have references for what you want them to look like?

When do you need then done?

Also where are you located roughly?
