Thank you Norman!

I loved the chopping of the old 3d parts. I would have never thought to do that. Fantastic work as always!

So, I was worried I was making the wrong move converting my table top terrain from 28mm scale to 20mm scale, but you're building on an even smaller scale and it looks crazy good and realistic. I've saved this video and will be returning to it. The rubble piles at the end, I've never been so pleasantly surprised in all my hours of terrain building videos. Bravo.

Thank you! In truth, the small scale gets easier as you work with it more. At first I didn't have a sense for scale and proportion, but as things have progressed building at a small scale gets more natural.

@@NScaleDystopia I have to agree with this actually. I remember when I first started painting 28mm zombies, it was PAINFUL to my eyes and mind. But now when I look at 28mm, they're enormous. Especially now that I've printed a lot of 20mm scale houses / barns / fences / robots.

Thanks, always look forward to your videos. Bowl of popcorn and a power drink!. I liked the resin you added to the scene, made it look real with the sunken trolly. The Goof Off was a good idea also, the melting looked like it was really underground. Cheers

Oh, I remember as we used to hang out that corner back in the days, always searching for cool records at Zigzags and Sam's, talking to those graffiti guys, DeathNote and Cylo used to get their spraycans there. And on a hot day, when we were lucky, we could get a glance on those amazing looking ladys from the variete, leaving the backdoor open, doing their rehersals. good old times.

Yesssss!!! The rubble piles made from grinded scrap prints was great. Probably will steal that at some point. Really loved this one.. nice job on your first resin pour even if you mixed a bit too much. Turned out fantastic! So much personality in this piece.

Saw vid's of people doing bot's and spaceships out of recycled plastic containers and bits. And of course, that led me down a steep and deep rabbit hole!!!! LOL!

These videos never cease to amaze me. Absolutely outstanding work! I wonder, have you looked into a Resin printer? The filament printer works out nicely, but I think a newer type of 3D printer would offer smoother surfaces.

I recently acquired a resin printer, and there is no doubt the results are better. That said, I do find it quite messy - I'm not as enamoured with it as I thought I would be. It has its place, and I'll use it accordingly. Thanks for the kind words!

@@NScaleDystopia It certainly seems like a lot more hassle than the filament printer. Though a friend of mine had a filament printer that made pretty neat stuff and he upgraded to a resin printer and that thing offers insane levels of detail and reasonably smooth surfaces.

I really like the trash clutter process. Looks great. The water in the sink hole looks too glossy. Have you done mod podge on top and spread it out with the air brush?

@NScaleDystopia

I used gel medium and four stair on a later project where I did an underwater diorama. It was a better result.

Even if its not the best primer, it is almost obligatory to use paint and glue or mod podge for the 10x10 Encounter terrain challenge. Great vid as usual and when does it stop with all the learning im getting from you?!

Hmmm, I have a feeling something's wrong with your ironing settings. Maybe the flow is to high so you get some over extrusion resulting in the noticeable zig zag pattern. But boy oh boy! May I say that I've been watching you're stuff for some time now and it's such an inspiration! All that texture and atmosphere in those little scenes, it's a treat to the eye. The storytelling too. And I really like your simple no-nonsense style of building. I feel like this build was an other notch up.

@NScaleDystopia

2 жыл бұрын

Ironing has been frustrating. On small detail parts it works really well, but on large flats it tends to warp the dimensions of the object - making window openings and doors distorted. I've tried different flows and speeds and I can't seem to find a setting that works. This project had a deadline, so I just went with a standard print and did my best to hide the banding. Ultimately, there is a resin printer in my future but for now this works 'ok.' That aside, thanks for the kind words. I'm having fun!

Great video. Could you share more about how you made the buildings? They seem 3d printed but I am not sure if they are filament or resin. As I saw no supports, didn't recognized the slicer either. But they ended looking so good
