Got
these female explorers painted. They are from Annie Norman’s Bad Squiddo Games,
sculpted by Shayne Hoyle, and they are great.
When
I see the photo of them I think I should have painted their eyes, but when you see
them in the flesh (or should that be tin?) they look good enough. I think that
is what I should strive for, to actually get minis to the gaming table.
I’ve
had some problems with the 3D-printer from early December. Filament extrusion
wouldn’t work as it should and everything turned into crap most of the time. I
tried everything to solve the problem, but nothing worked.
Well,
not until I thought of ambient temperature. I had the printer in our garage,
i.e. my hobby-room. It’s the coldest part of the house, and now, with winter in
full swing, it was down to 160C in there. That proved to be the
thing. I moved the printer up to an empty bedroom, turned it on this morning,
and it worked just like it should. Yay!
It’s
happily printing away as I write this.
