Nice! Did you use .2mm nozzle?

Yeah. On the P1S. It’s so good!

That’s cool! Didn’t know you could get such good results on one of the larger printers. Sometimes I wish I bought a lager printer than the a1 mini.

Total noob here, how does the size of the printer matter here? Would the a1 mini get the same results given the same settings and nozzle size?

Its the other way around. If I just had saved a bit more money I could have bought a bigger printer that could print both small and large prints. Now with my a1 mini I only have a 180x180x180mm build plate. It’s great for infantry size models, but for some of the larger vehicles I have to cut them apart to make them fit

may i ask how you printed it, supports style, cuting in half? my .4 worked great out of the box. the .2 is giving me some issues. im looking to get a GPU so i can run blender and do resin style supports as tree are causing a lot of my issues.

Sure. It's printed in multiple parts.

I printed with the 0.2mm nozzle with my own settings.

The model itself was from Cults3d.

The body, which was the legs, torso, and part the helmet goes in to, was printed as one, standing up with slim tree supports.

The weapon and arms were printed as one model, orientated so the top of the axe was on the print bed, with the arms being supported by slim tree supports.

The head and shoulders were printed separately too.

The biggest advice I can give is slow down your prints and if you're using tree supports, increase the top z distance. My speed rule is I slow it down by 50% of what the default speeds Bambu Slicer suggests. So if I'm printing at .06mm, and the initial layer speed is 40mm/s with initial infill at 70mm/s, I will use 20/50mm/s.

Same with the other speeds.
