In just 10 days I went from never having done any kind of 3D printing to having made all these minis. I love this printer!

nah I'm just ADHD as fuck and have had more down time than usual. I hyper focus like a mofo and just machine out shit.
Honestly before today I hadn't ever painted a mini other than. 20+ years ago and that was with a can of flat black spray
paint.
I did work at a Michaels for six years as an inventory manager so I know how the stuff works mechanically but had never used any of it.
I watched a couple of YouTube videos from Games Workshop and just tried to do like they did.

You are excellent at painting those. I've seen some people mirror a model when they are printing more than one of the same thing.

I did that for some of mine. The chaos demons are mirrors. But the human Mercs aren't just a trio of the same model.

Thanks! I am enjoying the painting more than i thought I would. It's a new creative outlet for me.

the dwarves mostly came from Artist Guild on Patreon. The big Mech and big Demon in the back came from Titan Forge on Patreon. The large angel and undead cleric came from thingiverse. The rest were part of the welcome packs from either Titan Forge or Artist Guild. I HIGHLY recommend either.

check Patreon. Be willing to spend 5-10 a month and you won't be disappointed.

I have an obsessive bent when I start a new hobby. I feel like the models don't come alive until I paint them.

I highly recommend watching the videos from 3DPrintingPro on YouTube. That guy knows what he's doing. I just try to do like him and I've got about 85% success rates.

On those fine lines. I've found that u can get like a qtip or something finer and dab a wee bit of liquid resin into the crack and then hit it with a UV flashlight works wonders at removing them and being easy to sand or paint over.
William Tatum

In terms of the bit at the base though, I have similar issues when I print flat on the build plate. Even when perfectly leveled about 1/3rd of my prints placed flat on the build plate have that effect. Raising them up makes more work, but
?
don't get that effect so long as supports don't fail.
Not sure of that makes sense.
