THE MANDALORIAN, in a Civilized Age
oreet replied to Imperial Advisor Arem Heshvaun's topic in Star Wars: Legion
There were books in episodes 8 and 9 of the new trilogy. The ancient jedi texts. -
Ender 5 Pro here too. I've got a lot about my terrain printing here:

Disney is really doubling down on making "Maclunkry" stick. -

Make sure to watch after the credits in today's episode. There's a 5-minute after credit segment. -

I guess there wasn't enough time for Slave 1 to get a fresh coat. -
So the OpenLock are good. I think my only concern with them is if you plan on taking things apart a lot for storage, I think over time, with constant assemble) disassemble, the clips could start to wear out.

If you're a Shoretrooper fan, today's episode was a good one for you. -

This is the way...to make us wait a long time for more episodes. -
So this might be more a Thingiverse issue, but if I try to download all the files at once, I get a 404 screen. Downloading each of the 5 individual files, I was able to download them. The previews aren't showing up in Thingiverse yet (usually happens when something new is posted there. Do you have a photo/rendering of what it should look like when it's completed? Looking at the files in my slicer, I think the only support/bed adhesion that might be needed would be for the walls. With how thin and tall they are, I'd probably add a brim or a raft to them to make sure they stay up. If you rotate the roof piece onto its side, it would probably be able to print without any supports. Are the circular holes on the sides of the walls meant for magnets? If so, love that, always nice to be able to break down larger terrain pieces for storage, and I prefer magnets over clips, because over time the clips can start to wear down/break. Might be a while before I can get these on my printer though, I have a backlog of holiday gifts and other things to print out first, these are just my impressions from looking at the digital files.

I came across his table after I had started printing this subway station set from Corvus Games. I'm definitely going to use some of his methods for adding character to the table.

Filament printer, yes. As far as cost, don't really want to think about that. Time, a few weeks. Each raised floor piece took 5 to 7 hours, times 35 floor pieces. Track pieces about 4 hours each times 10 pieces, walls took 8 hours each times 10 walls. Steps and escalators 16-20 hours times 4. Each of the 2 trains about a day, newsstand about 8 hours each times 2, then all the scatter pieces took 30 minutes to 3 hours each ( no idea how many benches or trashcans or vending machines are on the table) quick math says over 500 hours before scatter, so overall, getting close to a month non-stop.

I love that round token/dice holder in a few of your photos.

So I've been pretty quiet on this thread lately. Mostly because I've been working on a large project for a Marvel Crisis Protocol table. Everything in the 3' by 3' table (other than the Marvel miniatures) all came from my printer. The last of the parts finished printer after this photo, and everything that wasn't already primed is now sitting outside right now drying after some spray primer. This weekend looks like maybe the last time until spring that it will be warm enough to spraypaint outside, so trying to get my backlog of unprimed terrain and miniatures knocked out. All the floor tile segments were primed light gray, then I used blue tape to mask off what should stay gray, and sprayed yellow or brown for the other tiles. I then used a black artists' brush marker to draw the grout lines between each tile. The wall pieces are primed white, brush painted gray for the edges between each segment, then the brush pen for the grout lines The subway rail tracks were primed black. The rails painted silver, the metal bits below the tracks painted with a rust color, and the edges drybrushed with brown to dirty them up. Once all the clean painting is done, I'll start adding "character" to the table. Things like dirt and stains on the floors and walls, trash on the floors, posters/advertisements on the walls and pillars, and graffiti on the walls.

I've bought and printed TONS of stuff from Imperial Terrain. As far as 3d terrain sellers go, they are by far my favorite. If you go to my terrain thread, you'll see a lot of their stuff:

I had no idea how badass a gaffi stick could be until this morning. -
So I tried to watch the video, and got way too annoyed at Crabbok's "I have to whisper" schtick for the video. I usually enjoy his videos, but just couldn't finish this one.

I paint the ring a different color for each faction. Imperials get light gray, rebels bright red. I haven't painted any of the Separatists or Republic yet, so haven't decided, but Republic will probably be blue, and Separatists, i haven't given any thought to yet. I keep track of units by how I paint the miniatures themselves. For example, here's what my 3 boxes of Snowtroopers look like (I painted them as Galactic Marines instead) Two boxes of Royal Guards: Two boxes of Deathtroopers:

Star Wars Miniatures moving to Atomic Mass Games
oreet replied to Kirjath08's topic in Star Wars: Legion
Card design seems about the same on newer models like the X-Men sets. I hate those weird oversized character cards, but when you're only fielding 5-8 miniatures or so, it's not a deal breaker. -

Same. I'm working through painting my MCP minis now, and the newest releases (the X-Men sets) are awesome. -

Forget Bo-Katan. Best part of last week's episode was the Mon Cal Dockworker in the sweater. Don't agree? Fight me!
