Great result. Paid or free models, taking the time to learn how to properly support models has made 3d printing much more of a fun experience for me. i'm convinced most sellers are just hitting the "auto support" function and never test printing their own models.

Your channel is what introduced me to 3d printing. I bought an Elegoo Neptune 3 printer (NOT PRO) and that is what I have been messing with for the the last few years. Been working on getting models printed for myself and my group of friends so that we can all play a game of WH40k 10th Edition every now and then if not use them for TTRPGs. The Chapter is pleased with your work, brother. Keep it up!

Thanks brother!

A note about free files: Always check them for errors and resin traps (voids) before you print - and before you waste time supporting. I've seen a lot of really nice looking models - including a good number of premium files too - that have voids inside them. Most of them I am able to repair (Blender is awesome once you figure it out, and Windows 3D Builder fixes what I miss) but some are impossible to repair and are effectively junk - unless you can vent them with holes.

Yea if you want free files you have to become VERY proficient with self supporting files. Dialing in your support size is absolutely vital. After I had my support sizes 100% dialed, which took MONTHS, I now auto-support in chitbox, and then paintstakingly add slightly larger supports to the weight bearing positions, especially the first few areas closest to be build plate. Chitubox gets about 95% of the spots where supports needs to go, but cannot properly estimate where heavier or more suction prone areas will be. So far my self supported models have almost 100% success after dialing in with zero artifacts, which are usually caused by too big supports. Many small supports are much better than few big supports, because big supports will pockmark your model. Also you have to learn to rotate your model in such a way that details tend to grow away from the build plate, which just takes a lot of practice. Good luck!

Hey there! I have that same lion file, but mine is in parts, where did you find a fully built one?

I’m about to begin this wonderful journey of 3d printing. However, I heard that if you buy second hand models the price comparison is pretty similar to a printed one, and the resin in non quite as sturdy. I want to know to which degree this is a true thing. Have you ever dropped models? I honestly was quite brutal with my few plastic gw models, and I have no problems putting the pieces together. Is 3d printing really for me?

Great video. Could you do me a favor and tell me how to find the file for the tank you printed in the video? Thanks in advance!
