3d printing actually changed me from a wargamer to a figure painter. When i first bought my printer it was to print minis to use in dnd and maybe warhammer, but I've basically transitioned to printing and painting large figurines. I never considered this side of the hobby before and now i don't do anything else.

Ай бұрын

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Chaos, including the 8 pointed arrow symbol, are ripped straight from Michael Moorcock. This was something that was an open secret in early editions, as the original GW team were massive fans and did not hide it. In Warhammer fantasy the Elves (both high and dark) take a lot from the Melniboneans from Moorcock. The were an isolated former empire (ulthuan) filled with amoral sadists (Naggarond) who regularly enslaved people and treated other races with scorn. In a few stories his heroes have to fight creatures warped by the chaos gods to have the heads and appendages of beasts. D&D was also heavily inspired by Moorcock. The Law-Chaos axis from their alignment table is from Moorcock, as his stories were usually about those two cosmic forces colliding. The eye and hand of Vecna are a reference to the Corum books where the hero gets infused with the eye and the hand of destroyed elder gods. Moorcock gets a mention in the wonderful Appendix E of the 5th ed PHB, so credit to D&D for making that connection more explicit and encouraging people to read some of these influences, of which Moorcock is one of many. Malus Darkblade, Drizzt, and Geralt of Rivia are homages (if we are being charitable) to Elric of Melnibone, Moorcock's most famous character. One of his other series 'Hawkmoon' has a decrepit emperor installed in a machine throne that keeps him alive. His heavily armored soldiers are all organized into legions themed around certain animals. He's not the same as the emperor of mankind but the influence is definitely there. Anyway Moorcock a great pulpy author worth reading, your favourite fantasy author almost certainly has read him already!

@@cavemansam8400 He’s different from your post Tolkien writers, if that is what you are used to (Wheel of Time, Game of Thrones etc). That’s certainly what I was exposed to for most of my life anyway. His work is probably best filed under ‘Sword and Sorcery’ and so is closer to Conan, A Princess of Mars, Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser, etc. His prose is fairly lean and pacey. He doesn’t do big florid descriptions and he largely eschews what most people would call ‘world building’ today. He tells you what you need to know, but doesn’t trouble with any of the minutiae of the world his characters inhabit unless it serves the story, or tone in some more immediate way. Moorcock’s heroes inhabit worlds that are thoroughly mythic and slightly unreal. His heroes are all epic and doomed to a man, each one striving to bring balance between order and chaos. While he went for a very different approach to Tolkien, Moorcock also had a good eye for the genre conventions of epic in Greek and Norse mythology, and peppered his own work with the tropes that make these ancient myths so vibrant. Magic is big, loud and in your face. Monsters and Gods are weird and unique. Demons are summoned and spells unleashed in combat at a moments notice. Lots of action sequences with heroes wielding enchanted weapons. It won't take long to notice the influence on fantasy games like Warhammer and D&D. His books are pretty short (which is a virtue in my opinion) and for the most part come in at under 200 pages. He’s got a story to tell and he wastes no time in telling it. His most famous works were often written for fantasy magazines of the 60s and 70s so were cranked out pretty fast, but despite the odd moment here and there the books read very well today. I would recommend ‘The Knight of Swords’ the first of the Corum books, which are divided into two separate trilogies. They are all about fighting chaos and some of the imagery is very evocative of Warhammer. There is also the first Elric book ‘Elric of Melnibone’ though it serves more as an introduction, and you get a better sense of the character (and the Warhammer influence) in later books where he is more enthralled to his demonic sword Stormbringer. So you could start it later with ‘Weird of the White Wolf’ if you wanted a more representative example of the effect it had on the genre. Elric is a great moody goth anti-hero and once you read it you will spot his shadow EVERYWHERE in fantasy stories that have come out since.

Say what you want about copyright infringement, 3D printing is doing things to keep GW’s LOTR game alive that GW refuses to do. That community is so starving for more terrain and models.

Didn't get into 3D printing for "printing GW models on the cheap!" and I'm so glad that the market has really exploded with all kinds of creatives to pull us all away from that tired banner. In the meantime, GW seems bent on continuing to shoot itself, and bystanders (poor Cavill), in the foot so, aside from yet another reason to shake my head at them, happy to have outgrown them.

Was super fun to say hi to you! I was also thinking on the quantity of 3d printing things at the convention.

I want to get into 3D printing miniatures but man I think I'm allergic to resin or something. I have tried it a few times but even with a respirator and ventilation I still get headaches. I love FDM printing, I have two Prusa printers and a Bambu, but I just can't stand resin. Its also really messy. I keep waiting for resin that is made for people sensitive to it but no luck yet.

I own a resin printer now, and make my own 3D models (self taught BTW). I have been downloading amateur and free rules for games, and will make my own game pieces. I already have some Star Trek style ships on hex bases, and am making my own designed space battleships and cruisers and such for a ship combat game I will play soon. It is the way forward.

Pleasure to meet you mate!

I like the idea of a lot of the models 3D printing can give me however I don’t see how it is available to the vast majority of people setting up ventilation and stuff if you live in a apartment is not really possible I am not looking to poison myself or my neighbors.

after curing properly, Resin is non-toxic. But you are right with the byproducts, doesn't matter if its water-washable, the stuff you clean it with is also considered hazardous waste in most countries around the world and may not enter the drain. With alcohol, you can at least let it evaporate when it is saturated as a cleaning agent, and then just have a bit of goo to bring to the hazmat recycling place, much cheaper volume-wise (we pay by weight). Good ventilation and a controlled temperature is a must for reproducable prints. But for both we have enclosures now that work really well (with filters). Still wouldn't print stuff in a living room, but in the attic? No problem. Actually, printing ABS on a FDM printer gives off nastier fumes :D

@@lassemelson5668 Depends on the Resin. There have been new formulas on the market which, after curing, retain some flexibility.

Costs a bit more, but we are talking about 20-25% markup. Works fine on any printer, I have one of the first generation Photons here, and a newer 4K one.

Fun video. Well, it appears that there will be more space next year and I will have no excuse to not be there as Adepticon is moving to Milwaukee, WI (my hometown) next year.

I had a 3d printer, but I sold it after a year and a half because the minis at that time looked amazing in the renders, but after printinted them, the details were very weak, too small and the whole process of reain printer is a hassle that i dislike. Maybe in the future, with bigger and better printers (like the gk two), for now I'm really happy buying physical minis. I forgot that it was really expensive to buy stl and nearly 80-90% of them never get printed. The subscription model is that way for a reason, to make you think " wow, so many models, it's a bargain " when in the end, just wanted to print 1 or 2 of the 10+ some companies give you.

Fdm is perfect for terrain i have done amazing stuff, i have had several resin printers and while nice the chemicals and such have caused health problems, ( and yes i had a very full set up with vents and such ) i think SLS printing will be the furture once the price drops to a level where everyone can afford it, no supports no chemicals and perfect printed models , win win really

I recently acquired a resin 3D printer, and I'm thrilled about the creative possibilities it offers. Instead of being constrained by the offerings of major gaming outlets like GW miniatures, I'm excited to explore our own designs and bring them to life. I believe that as technology evolves, companies in the industry will need to adapt their business models, perhaps by releasing STL files, to remain relevant and competitive in this modern era.

I wanna see a competition that allows any 3d printed model. My mini factory would be a great organiser for that and you could paint any model available on their platform. I thought resin beast was like that and found it a bit weird that they only allow a handful of models, which makes sense when it's hosted by a mini company.

Our flats here are too small to have 3d printers safely. But on the flip side there is A LOT 3d print/recast farms ones with 10-20 machines running non stop. Tgey produce parts and models for the western customer, so the price is still high for the regular buyer here. The models do look great.

And you don't have to worry about topology, rigging, animation, all the complicated stuff that game devs and VFX artists have to worry about.

My wife paints. I appreciate figures too much to torture them with my poor abilities. But it's good to see someone recognizing how many options you get from 3d printing. It wasn't until I got a resin printer - which my wife surprised me with at Christmas 16 months ago so I could print board game figures for her to paint - that I realized JUST how great the models can be. It's very difficult to print a good figure on FDM, even on my best printer. I mean, before I had resin, even that idea was amazing. I could download a free STL. Cut it and move it around in a simple cad program like Tinkercad, and print out what I wanted. But resin starts to look like injection molded stuff. And you can't personalize injecting molding. My oldest daughter and her friends play D&D regularly and I had already figured out how to scan in their heads (second life for Kinect scanner) and put them on D&D figures. But the models are SO much better with resin than I could do before. I continue to be surprised at the level of detail I get. Thanks for promoting the 3D hobby/avocation to more people.

It will take a new and unique approach to the business model for selling wargames for 3d printing to be a major player.

Maybe a licensing agreement between retailers and SSTL/rules producers (game companies) where a retail outlet does the printing. 🤷

I wonder how big Historicon is compared with this convention, as it has a big focus on figure gaming - mainly historical. The site says 2334 attendee for 2023. I have heard claims of up to 5,000 back in the 1990's.

I've been printing since the beginning of the Pandemic and I can honestly say that the sculpts and resolution of 3d printing now is far far beyond what many companies offer. What we're going to see is a shift from product focus to lore, IP, and system focus. You're already seeing this with the rise again of the old Specialist Games and 100% print and play games like Full Spectrum Dominance. This is the future. It's good. It's putting fun back in your hands and not in that of the... ahem, shareholders.

0:06 Isn't just that future, but the future in general starting right now?

I'm planning on buying my own 3D printer to print my own mini models for Warhammer 40k. Especially because of what GW did to the Adeptus Custodes.

Don't know the file but art style reminds me of frank frezzeta.

I like that the 3d printing space is moving away from "Rabble Rabble, F' GW, gonna print everything for cheap". Still common enough that its hard to find compatible conversion parts due to the word jumbles people use to avoid IP searches. Its definitely a boon for people who just want to paint cool stuff, since it makes finding interesting models or busts far more accessible.

Yea! Figure prices have gotten ridiculous.

What miniature did you use for the pin. Its the whole reason i clicked and watched the whole video now im subscribed but i still need to know. Please i must know😊

miss when warhammer sprues had lots of extra parts/alt weapons etc for kitbashing

I haven't spoken to anyone that says "meh" about 3d printed armies and proxies. Maybe we aren't thinking about the same sculpts because, maybe you don't notice them in the first place?

The attitude is not towards the sculpts. I just meant that instead of a devices community with people arguing for and against 3D printing. Nobody cares (mostly) so do what you choose to do.

Would love to start 3d printing. Haven't touched 40k in years because of how insanely expensive it is. I have no idea where to even begin with 3d printing.

@miguellopez3392

Start with a printer with a 6 inch display, the smaller the printer the easier the cleanup and less waste, 4k and 8k printers will give you model quality prints, don't really on basic resins for 40k minitures, get a ABS like resin or flexible resin.

Great uplifting video but why would 3D printing take over the TT indudustry when 2D printing didn't books? Also if GW can't get 3D printed models to print to their factiry level how can a home printer? And even if FDM printing becomes GW factory good how can it be cheaper and easier then factiry?

If i ever do get back into minis, everything will be 3D printed... Im never going to painstakingly file down metal minis or have to use pins ever again. Plastic and magnets 100%

I bought anycubic 6ks and 5kg of resin, 2kg resin was enough to print around 4k points of high elves for TOW At GW prices I wouldnt get anywhere close to that

I hope GW never goes away. But my hope is for them to evolve. Maybe they can go full STL subscription model like Loot Studios, they can just sell books and cards maybe? I want the IP to get bigger and greater, pumping movies, series, books, graphic novel, comics, and audio books, (and more boardgames maybe?) - I don't get all the hate they get. It is like hating your dad for teaching you the art of cooking, just because instant meals exists.

@ericdavis4964

GW is a Miniatures company. The books, the rules, everything else is just to promote and sell the miniatures. As to the hate, most of it is over bad rules (unbalanced, poorly written) and prices for the miniatures. GW in the 90s made fairly balanced rules and their prices were very competitive in the market. Future GW: it all depends on what the stockholders want and how the stockholders can get the best return on their investment (stocks).

I love the idea of 3D overtaking the market and no is to blame but Game workshop and other overcharging company for literal plastic.

@FauxHammer

I disagree that Games Workshop are to "blame" , though I understand the pricing argument. but Wargaming has been around far longer than GW....

Who painted the mini in the thumbnail?

The choice one has in buying an stl is huge now, however what I do not want to see is when an stl publisher gets greedy and start trying to push special or fomo stl models. I actually avoid buying from companies that sell their models exclusively through a subscription - I'd prefer to pick the model I want instead of being lumbered with bundled models I have no interest in.
