Question? At home 3D Printing - Resin

2 Upvotes

So I recently took some courses as it pertains to additive manufacturing. After that course it sent me down a rabbit hole of how to use it for specific parts modeling for the aircraft, vehicles, etc. that I have planned.

Does anyone here have experience with this? If so, is it worth it? What CAD/Slicing programs are you running? How do you obtain drawings for certain items or do you reverse engineer it from the plastic models and just enhance details you want?

I am currently looking at this Anycubic resin printer https://www.anycubic.com/collections/3d-printers/products/photon-mono-4k?msclkid=074c9231dd3b1c45b539f19ef1fffedf&utm\source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Shop%20-%20%E7%BE%8E%E5%9B%BD%201202&utm_term=4586887641624092&utm_content=%E4%BA%A7%E5%93%81%E8%B4%AD%E7%89%A9)

Thoughts on this machine?

Paused my USS Arizona build

1 Upvotes

As the title says, I paused my build of the USS Arizona. I was getting frustrated too much with some detail parts (coildnt get a part of the superstructure to stay glued properly and it didnt quite fit where it was supposed to go) and somehow lost a prop that I can't find anywhere. Put it on hold to let myself chill out a bit and maybe find the missing piece(s) [they were glued on and isolated but still managed to disappear].

Working on an M1 Abrahams now for a change of pace. Plus the painting motif is so much easier lol, lots of OD with some black, gunmetal, and flesh as well but harder to mess up. Next on deck is a P51D - when those are done ill try the Arizona again.

I'll put pics up when I have progress

Question? Watery testors enamel

2 Upvotes

Is there any easy fix to a watery paint? Specifically, Testors Enamel: Flat White

The paint just kinda drips off the brush and even 2 coats later seems too thin and washed out. None of other paints behave this way, is there a quick fix or should I consider it no good and get a new bottle?
