It’s a very menacing jellyfish, good work.
I actually love it. It looks like something the character in question would have painted themselves.
Yes I was thinking the same! Thanks.
Honestly, it works.
I’m not really any good with paint but with finishing prints I’ve learnt a thing or two. High build primer and some fine wet and dry will make a huge difference covering up your layer lines.
Thanks for the advice! I actually can’t see the layer lines with the naked eye unless the model is like three inches from my face.
Maybe once I’m better at painting I’ll spend a bit of effort on this stuff but I think it’s okay for now.
You may need reading glasses. I build RC helicopters which have very small mechanical parts. I can’t see any fine detail without reading glasses. I used to just buy them at my local drug store. They have a display with lots of different styles and magnification with text samples. You can try them on and read the text at arms length to figure out which ones work best for you. Also more light in your work area will probably help.
LOL, I like your attitude
That’s the spirit! I’m proud of you!
Holy shit, that print job is insanely impressive. What are you using?
Elegoo Mars 3 Pro!
Are the fingerprints on it intentional? They honestly look like decent texture design elements on most of it, to the point I had to go looking (the narrow top strip on the left hip piece told me they were fingerprints), so if they were intentional texture, disregard.
If you want to avoid that (and the messy fingers) in the future, a plastic bottle cap and some blue tack/sticky tack/even tape helps a ton. Just adhere the mini to the bottle cap, and you have a way to hold it without risking the paint.
It’s layer lines from a 3d print I think
Oh, I guess I’ve not seen a 3d print this close… I‘ve only ever painted pewter and lead figures.
It’s layer lines! It’s already on a little 3d printed magnetic painting handle:
Thanks though!
