Can you tell which one of these models is 3d printed? I 3d printed a space marine in 2k, 4k and 8k to compare 3d printing against the official Games Workshop models.

If the starting STL is lower poly it won't really matter which printer it was printed on, in fact the higher the resolution the more it would prob highlight the lower poly's. If you'd started with a higher quality STL and then did the comparison I feel it would of been a bit more useful. Of course the difficulties of finding a 1 to 1 for a GW model would prob also be more difficult as well. Interesting idea for a video at least. I don't really see the point of the "plan", personally there are so many STL creators out there that showcase how much better 3d prints can be than GW's stuff already. Passing as a GW model is hardly a challenge IMO.

@forgottencameras Год назад

I'm really hoping that the Amazon 40k 'universe' takes off, GW makes a tremendous amount of money, and they just license it like Pathfinder, where fans can make their own stuff. The amount of money they are making with the IP and other media must absolutely dwarf profits they are making with minis, and that gap is only going to get wider.

@JamesBuggemo Год назад

Certain slicing programs have anti-aliasing settings that can reduce the “grow lines” and edge fractals on those lines. It’s worth experimenting to get right, because if you can dial it in, it produces nearly flawless prints that don’t look printed at all

@burningphoneix Год назад

I'd be interested to see if you used Anti-Aliasing on the 4K and 8K printers if it would fix the polygons on the backpacks.

@preddes6522 Год назад

So the problem with the polys has to do with the STL and not the printer. you'd need to take it into a modelling software like maya or blender and increase the polycount to smooth it out.

@peterkiss1204 Год назад

@@terugue Not really. Anti-aliasing is to reduce the "sampling error" caused by the finite detail density capability (in this case the resolution along the X-Y plane) of the LCD screen by some sort of "over sampling" (by varying intensity or exposure time on concerned areas). But it won't help on the problem of low polycount as it is a problem of the model and not the method of its reproduction. On the other hand image blur would indiscriminately wash away the sharp edges somewhat covering up the low poly nature of the model.

Lots of high quality space marine backpack stls out there, you can definitely print models to the same quality as HIPS casting. I could tell as you were painting which one was GW though because it had a mold line.

@S.A.S.H. Год назад

Did you use anti-aliasing when you printed the 4K and 8K models? The polies are visible on things like the round bits of the backpacks, and I'm wondering if AA would reduce their obviousness.

@S.A.S.H. Год назад

Great comparisons and I'd definitely like to see around round with the highest resolution STLs you can find, unless there's a way to raise the DPI of the existing STL directly, which would also be a very interesting effort for those of us who, like you have been collecting GW-like models for several years. Thanks for the video, well done, m8.

@markburton5292 Год назад

DPI is a measurement that applies to the screen not the sculpt. you need a higher poly model with more detail. Whie you could say higher resolution in both instance when doing so you are talking about different things. A higher DPI printer will show more details or lack there of in the models. with more polys or tessellation you will get smoother results. As the printers become more capable they will start to display the faults of the lower quality models. With the right software he could have imported that model and upscaled the number of polys to help with the tessellation. He could also have done a slight bit of sanding. While I don't play GW I do think companies selling good models for us to print is probably a good way to go.

@catherder6552 9 месяцев назад

Gotta remember "A good paintjob adds detail to a bad mini, But a bad paintjob can forever ruin a great mini"

@greaterpainter7996 Год назад

Focusing on 2k/4k/8k doesn't really mean much. It's more about x/y resolution. An 4k printer with a 5 inch buildplate will produce the same detail as an 8k with a 10 inch buildplate. With that said IMO anything with an xy resolution of 30ish microns or less will replicate models indistinguishable from GW save any layer lines/ file differences. I had a phrozen sonic mini 8k sitting in the box for a year because the mini 4k that I was using was that good. The place where high resolution printers shine their ability to retain all the detail while still cranking up the anti-aliasing for smooth high detail prints.

@GrandNagusEli Год назад

@joshuacallaway5984 Год назад

While modeling from scratch in Blender is a bit daunting, you can import the low poly model you have and try an operation called "Sub-divide faces". As long as the stl is a manifold (no holes and only one face) that should work a treat to make all those poly faces disappear.

@Adlore Год назад

this will harm sharp edges, so you should manually mark sharp edges as seams first, then subdivide with a reduced weight for the seems. This will keep the seams sharp and smooth the rest

@joshuacallaway5984 Год назад

@@Adlore Hey, thanks for the good info! I'm still very much an amateur at Blender. I guess this would explain why some of the models I've tried this on look like crap...lol. I will definately try that out the next time I need to smooth some low poly models.

@TheDainerss 8 месяцев назад

With both the Leviathan and 10th Ed. Ultimate Starter being $250+, and individual characters going for $50 - $100 each, GW is pushing people to 3D printers. For the price of the two sets I mentioned, you can get a 12K printer. It is outrageous what they are charging for plastic and At the detail these are at now, I see more and more people moving to resin printing. And with other games openly sharing their STLs or making them available for a fee, it is just enhancing the reasons to print your own models.

@lewiskearney3797 Год назад

In addition to using/not using hot water, your 8k is probably slightly overXP meaning your supports are stronger on it 👍

@sophieadams4155 Год назад

@ScytheNoire Год назад

Are you using the Cones of Calibration to make sure your exposure settings are right? It's the exposure calibration that doesn't rely on human perception, it has a pass-fail design, and I think you may want to use it to get your exposures correct.

@Hellspawnxxx Год назад

I will tell you how they will know its 3D printed and its not based off the looks it will be because of the weight. You can 100% feel the difference in weight from a mold injected plastic GW space marine versus a much heavier dense resin 3D print. The only way to test your theory is too not allow the GW shop owner to hold the piece and that's unlikely. BUT if you placed the space marine in a small display case and handed it to them, they won't detect the weight difference.

@therealdadoom7509 Год назад

higher quality stl would go a long ways, thinner support attachment points(what your using on this model seems really heavy, with my saturn 2 i do the majority of my work with .2 and .3mm tips for supports and just a few.5mm tips to anchor the bottom of the feet and major assemblies) and just a question what are you using for aa settings and layer height? usually run 8xaa on sharpen details and 30 um(pairs well with the 28um pixel size to help reduce stair stepping)

@Wizard311 Год назад

poly can be reduced with Blur/Anti-aliasing without loosing detail but its a delicate balancing act to say the least. But, finding better STL files is a much easier solution if available.

@antongunther3977 Год назад

Are you using anti aliasing? That can help a bit with the polygons as it smooths things out a bit. It can be a pain to get your settings adjusted for it, but it can be worth it on printers with smaller pixel sizes.

@MorganScott82 Год назад

Sam, I hope you know this but, just in case, and for your audience, resolution is only half the picture. Its about how many pixels the screen fits into a given area, also called the XY Accuracy. A 6" 2k screen has as many pixels per sq cm as a 4k 10" screen, so they produce the same results. The original Mars (2k) and the original Saturn (4k) have basically the same XY accuracy. If you're comparing two printers with the same build volume the one with higher resolution is better but if the screen is bigger you have to think about more than just resolution. This is why the best printer currently available is the Phrozen sonic mini 8k at 22 micron xy accuracy (compared to something like the Saturn 2's 28 micron or the original Saturn or Mars's 50 Micron) though it is be about to be eclipsed by the Saturn 3 or Anycubic M5s at about 19 micron both of which have Saturn like screen sizes, but 12k screens.

@calebjtv Год назад

@exodous02 Год назад

I remember a while ago I watched a review of a 8k printer and the reviewer was setting it up against a 4k printer and determined 8k lost because the 4k prints were better. What he didn't realize was the 8k printer had a huge print bed and the 4k printer bed was a lot smaller. Printers need to be advertised by pixel density not by resolution. A 4k printer less than half the size of a 8k printer is going to be higher quality because of pixel density.

@rageofachilles7400 Год назад

You can alter support density in Chitubox if doing your own, i think the default is 50%. The issue with many presupported stl files is the supports are read as part of the model and are the same density.

@jaegerbomb269 Год назад

@dorbie Год назад

I saw some info saying that 8k printers create fillets in corners unless you use a more opaque resin due to finer layers and light bleed. This is probably what is strengthening your supports. Go with a darker resin to fix it. You will have to cure for longer though. I can see the polygonization easily. I also see striations (layer steps) quite conspicuously on the thigh, edge of the gorget and elsewhere. There's also a layer shift line on the shin of one leg, on both printed models. I hope you get a finer detail mesh model and attempt to place it in the store. You might have to go with a finer layer height if that's possible (it will make the support fillets worse so you will need darker resin).

@ollied2025 11 месяцев назад

@deraxelturrelkeign 7 месяцев назад

I guessed all three correct the give away on the 4k is the right (from the marines perspective) grieve there appears to be a layer shift and on the 8k model the layer shift is on the left grieve. It was difficult to find it even with the model in full sized for the HD screen. I'd imagine that layer shift would be hard to see before painting so it might be difficult to hide unless it was fixed then repainted.

@ScytheNoire Год назад

The entire 2K, 4K, 8K is completely misleading, because it doesn't tell you what the actual detail level the printer is able to get out. A small scale 4K can have higher detail levels than a large scale 8K. The spec that matters is the XY Resolution. Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K has a XY res of 35μm, whereas the Phrozen Sonic Mega 8K has a XY res of 43 µm. So if printing miniatures, you can get finer details with the Mini 4K than the Mega 8K. It's all about getting the right size for what you want to print, and just pay attention to the XY resolution, that's what matters.

You can tell the difference in the rounded parts for sure, this is only because the camera is so close you pick it up, in real life is so tiny that you wouldn't notice it.

possibly go as far as them accepting the invite to display, then inform them, so as not to get them in trouble?

Beginner question: What are the stipulations when it comes to using a 3D printed model for gameplay? Or if you're even allowed?

You mean using models you bought on ebay half-painted? Seller said they are legit.

If you're worried about getting a staff member in trouble, send them to someone else to test at a shop.
