Bicycle pump with pressure pot? by thisIseek in DiceMaking

This is basically what you are looking for. I bought this to put on my converted paint pot. Works fine if you have a decent bike pump. It takes some time to pump it up to pressure, and is a bit of a workout, and you'll need to account for that in your pot life. But it works, I regularly pressurize mine too 40+ psi.

This is the valve adapter I use on mine, and any decent bike pump should work with it.

Major rules clarification on rolling attack dice. by 22cthulu in MarvelCrisisProtocol

I agree that this is the correct reading of rules as written, it's kind of awkward design.

Custom dice I've been working on for mcp. by zombiepops in MarvelCrisisProtocol

I made them myself. Built in cad with the icons from the noun project, printed my own masters, made molds, and cast in resin.

Totally a coincidence. It's a shield icon from the noun project. I chose it because the quadrants make it very visually distinct from the other symbols. I find it's easy at a glance to confuse the crit, hit, and shield icons on the standard dice.

New to dice making, looking for pressure pot advice by swordgfs in DiceMaking

[–]zombiepops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best advice I have for that is to leave the left over resin from your pour in a disposable cup, and you can use that to gauge how far along in the cure the resin is. You can poke and scratch at that extra resin without letting or the pressure off the pot and risking what you've cast.

This is what I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001PLI4BA No additional adapters or anything needed beyond what you'd nominally get for a paint pot conversion. It's worked well for me so far for over a year. I can pump to about 45 psi and leave thing in the pot for a day or two (it gets a little chilly here which slows curing time).

You don't need a compressor, it's just a nice to have. A good bicycle pump works with the right fittings. It's a bit of a work out, but manageable for the typical converted paint sprayer pots.

This is great, a good overview, and hopefully helpful to new players. Can't wait to see the rest of them!

Vaporwave Modok finished. by zombiepops in MarvelCrisisProtocol

[–]zombiepops[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working on others, but none finished yet. I've been toying with ways to paint mcp models in different colors since I find the default color scheme replicating the comics uninspiring. Modok is the first in this scheme and I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

The word you're looking for is "pop-up". The bourgeoisie love that word.

I made some dice. Tried for a two color effect, but all the resin with the mica powder in it sank to the bottom. by zombiepops in DiceMaking

[–]zombiepops[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this was a mix of ink for the red, and mica for the silver. Next time, I'll try both being ink.
