What this means:

So, the initial plan went completely off the rails.

I quickly realized that the Army Painter colors I used looked absolutely terrible on this VW T1. The faded blue paint job came out so bad that I literally couldn't do anything to save it. At that point, there was only one logical move left: destroy it even more and turn it into a complete piece of junk.

Instead of throwing it into the trash, I decided to go all-in on the weathering, rust, and corrosion effects. If it's going to look ruined, it might as well look professionally ruined.

It went from a botched factory paint job to a total rusty barn find/junkyard sleeper. Honestly, adapting to the disaster was pretty fun.

What do you guys think? Did I manage to save a failed project, or does it just look like a sad, dead piece of history?

These models are printed on an X2D and I am pretty happy with how the tyranid printed at 0,1 layer height looks for example. However I want the quality to be as good as possible, so naturally I tried reducing the layer height further. However, as you can see in the second and third pic comparing the prints at different layer heights it looks like the print gets worse with a smaller layer height. Am I just seeing things or is the quality actually worse? Look at the crocodiles horn or the skeletons face for example. Why does it look worse at lower layer height and what can I do about it?

I have been selling shoulder pauldrons of lesser known and not supported factions on Etsy. Yesterday I had an email saying GW have removed them for IP infringement. Fine I get it but does this mean now if I put anything else up it'll be closely monitored? I'm not intending on doing anything else for any of the GW franchise but I'd rather start with a whole new selling profile if im going to be harassed by them. Has anyone had any run ins like this do they make life difficult?

Edit: Yes I am in the wrong, not intentionally trying to be a victim. I had made these ages ago and hadn't removed them of my own accord when I knew they were actively pursuing. I have more of my own designs on my store I just don't want to bring those into disrepute aswell.

A Camazotz is an ancient Mayan Death bat. Had a more classic bat fiend color way last week, check out the new one.

One of my patrons did a fantastic job 3D printing and painting my Zombie Beholder mini :)

11/10 Spookies!

The model was originally made then honed in for SLA, but I’ll be darned if it didn’t turn out amazingly on a Bambu P1S! Masterfully painted by Stan the man.

I've started a pretty ambitious Warhammer 3D-printing project: building my own Palace of Slaanesh, and this is Part 1 of a five-part series!

The idea is to create a custom Slaanesh temple inspired by Warhammer terrain, surrounded by an absolutely ridiculous army.

So far, I've printed:

• 5 Sigvald the Magnificents, with the goal of reaching 30.
• 2 dragons inspired by Game of Thrones, with the plan to print 10 in total and give each one a Sigvald rider.
• A custom Slaanesh temple to serve as the centrepiece of the palace.

I'm also making the 3D files myself and sharing them for free, so other people can print the project too.

I'm documenting the build on my YouTube channel, Grey Wargaming. If you enjoy seeing ambitious Warhammer terrain, custom armies and 3D-printed miniatures come together, here's the first episode:

I'd love to hear what you think! Would an army of 30 Sigvalds and 10 dragon riders be the ultimate Slaanesh spectacle, or have I completely lost the plot? 😈

I dont know how 5 hours flies by so quick!

I went from priming -> base coat-> current state

Yeah, it may be 3am, but when you've got that flow state going, that train doesnt stop! At least my client will be happy!

Hey everyone! I’m the creator behind The Terraformer Factory, and I’ve put together a free sample pack of 8 basing bits for your next project.
All pieces have been tested in resin and include supported and unsupported STLs, plus CHITUBOX projects.

Grab the free pack here: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-free-basing-bits-sample-pack-853951

If you like the bits, consider dropping me a follow on MyMiniFactory and having a look around the store! There are starter sets for different bases and dioramas, including forests, deserts, ruined cities, and forgotten temples.
I’d love to see what you make with them!

Happy 3d printing! <3

Sup guys, I keep sculpting minis for Dark Sun. Finally got my hands on Avangion. For those unfamiliar with the setting - its basically what a celestial on a world without gods would be like. And you can even become one on high level.

There a multiple stages of this metamorphosis, I've made the two main ones.

Presupported STLs are available on my Tribe and Patreon

Here is my version of M'ok The Jeweler from Quentin Sculptor.

Really enjoyed painting this guy and Quentin's sculpts always fit my eye. Went for a different lighting color here in the shadows and was pleased with how it turned out.

Hello, these are some miniatures that I have designed. If you are interested in printing them, you can find them here: All the 3D models of North-Bit・Cults

Sou o Rapha. Eu esculpo e imprimo miniaturas de fantasia para meus jogos de RPG de mesa (Daggerheart, D&D).

Estas são impressões de resina reais, exatamente como saíram da minha Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra – sem lixamento, sem limpeza, sem pintura.

Conheça o Ribbet, um aventureiro sapo com espada e escudo. Ele é meu primeiro lançamento e é grátis:

- Versões de 28mm e 32mm (a última foto mostra os dois lado a lado)

- STL pré-suportado + não suportado, além do projeto Chitubox

Feedback é muito bem-vindo – é a minha primeira vez compartilhando minhas esculturas!

I normally see these either in grey resin or lined up in batches waiting to be packed. A friend painted a selection for me for fun, and honestly, this is the first time I’ve properly appreciated some of the details.

Full disclosure: I make and sell the prints.

Our October Tribe release is now live, featuring a collection of 10 high-detail busts designed for display painting and printing.

The whole painting process for the terrain took around 10 days, and another 10 days for the minis (40+ 32 mm knights and vermin). Painting all those stones, wooden beams, and rooftops was quite a challenge, but seeing everything come together made it worth it.

It's currently live on Kickstarter if you want to check it out

And there is a free tower STL!
