I took a step deeper into the 3d printer obsession by picking up a Photon Mono last month. I was not always happy with the results from my Ender, though it's still great for printing things like Catan tiles, terrain, and movement trays. But holy cow these resin minis are amazing.
Left to right: Ghukek's Bogue straight off Thingiverse, Arkansas and Florida from Ben Wynn & Andrew Tanner's "Broadside: Empires of Steel" Kickstarter. Those BBs were designed for a 1:1500 default, but they scaled down to 1:1800 perfectly (Once I remembered to print the turrets at the right scale!)
So, my next question for those of you with experience with resin: how do they take paint? I've heard that spray primers can damage resin (sort of like stryofoam). Will a coat of Vallejo Primer do the job to get started?
