So the printer has been running quite a bit this afternoon and evening…
I redid the heroes for the game… much better this time round… but then again they took 5 hours plus to print. I still managed to snap the spear off the same one again! I reckon the PLA just isn’t strong enough. I will drill it out and put in a wire spear or something similar.
This is still without the specific miniature profile for the slicer.
The other thing I made was a vat of bubbling something or other.
It isn’t exactly the largest thing to hide behind, but I reckon I could double the size. This size took an hour and a half to print.
I also made a start on printing the game tiles….
Still a very long way to go. I fished my Dark green rattle can out of my shed and have brought it into the house to warm up a bit. I will give all the fields etc a spray with it then get some variation onto them. Part of me wonders about adding flock to them, but I am worried it might look weird. On the upside I can print a tile off and give it a go…..
On the plate now are some 40k style ammo boxes with separate lids… They should be done in not much over an hour.
Making good progress! I know what you mean about flock/static grass on small scale bases. If the bases have a bit of texture though I’d probably paint them green and drybrush them yellow (I used to use Humbrol 80 grass green, which is available in enamel or acrylic).

that is the way I will probably go as the flock will look just wrong 🙂
