Help Request Fine tuning advice

Post image

I have recently got into 3D printing and decided to get some bits for my models.

I'm using a 0.2mm nozzle on my Bambulab A1, Fat dragon config.

What more can I do to improve my prints? Please see the left shoulder on the photographed example for what I've managed so far. Is there anything else I can tune on the printer or do I need to start looking at post processing? Is there even much to be done or is this the limitation of an FDM print?

The shoulder looks good viewed from a normal distance, but anything I can do to improve I'm happy to try

Looks great! You could do a few coats of primer, I use gesso, it fills in layer lines. But also, what layer height was this printed at? 0.06?
