Healing potions for our DnD night.

This was a fun piece and I really loved how they turned out for the small-time frame I had to get a bunch of these finished for our first DND game night back in early November 2019. They were used as gifts for our friends and as health pots for the game night.

These amazing and really well made STL file we found on Thingiverse and was made by SlightlyViking. I would really love to print a bunch more of these in multiple sizes and colours. They were printed on our Ender 3 using 3D Esun grey filament.

I have used a variety of Army Painter, Vallejo and Citadel paints. With these pieces however I have used mostly Army Painters paints as it is my largest collection of paints I currently have. To achieve the glassy look of the bottle I have used a two-part clear opoxy.

Empire of Scorching Sands

Here are some more mini’s we printed from a Kickstarter run by a terrific Digital sculptor named EC3D Design, the Kickstarter was called Empire of Scorching Sands and was 6th Kickstarter. Evan from EC3D has also recently run two charity FundRazr projects as well called – Community (treasure) Chest where 40% of the funds raised are donated to charity. These Miniatures where printed for a number of reasons, firstly to continue to test and get use to using the Phrozen Sonic Mini Resin Printer. Secondly to add miniatures to my collection for an upcoming desert Arabian city project, lastly, they are amazing miniatures and I can’t wait to paint them. They have been printed using the Phrozen Model Aqua Green Resin and I have glued the prints to some basic plastic blank flat bases to enable priming and painting easily.

The Dwarves

Hi everyone this is my first trial print from the new Phrozen Sonic Mini Resin Printer my Husband and I got (check the earlier post out on that). We have used the Phrozen Model Aqua Green Resin we bought with the printer to print these dwarfs. Taking the step of getting a Resin 3D printer for my hobby has been one I’m glad I’ve taken and to be honest I wish I had done it early, the possibilities with owning one for my hobbies are endless. I printed these in March 2020 and am honestly amazed at the quality and detail of the miniatures. I can not wait to paint these, although with both printers I am accumulating a large collection of half painted and half constructed items.

The stl files are from a great Kickstarter by Epic N Stuff called THE DWARVES.

I have always wanted a collection of dwarves and this is going to be where it started, I think also Thingiverse has a number of dwarves I also would love to print. But Epic N Stuff have a great collection here and a number of variations of stls and they look awesome and to be honest who can’t use a collection of dwarves for their warbands or DND games.

I’m continuing to test and get use to using the resin printer, changing sizes, getting use to supports and adhesion to the build plate is important when working with this type of printer.

I have used some old FDM bases I had laying around to get some stability under these little guys so to make them easier to prime and ready to paint.
