Do you think 3D printing is the future of Tabletop Miniatures Games?

@doombringer4519 6 дней назад

I think the biggest issue is that GW has such a lions share of consumer attention. Unless GW starts making STLs (which isn't gonna happen for a WHILE) or somehow there's a game that catches the attention of a lot of people, most people are gonna stick to kits as they want the official GW look. That being said, I think smaller games will be shifting to almost exclusively 3D prints, as it lowers their manufacturing upfront cost and helps with outreach

Without a doubt 3d printing will dominate.

@JPGotrokkits 6 дней назад

Sea Dog Game Studios has been using 3d printing for production since 2011. BSS is well behind the curve.

@mechaman88 6 дней назад

The biggest issue is we need a consistent and reliable printer without material risk. I would love an FDM, even with layer lines that could print with accuracy

@Dstinct 5 дней назад

I think it will add to the hobby aspect, but I don't see it dominating. Injected plastic is still the easiest product for someone to interact with, and many people would rather pay for ease that deal with the extra steps of printing which is basically an additional hobby on top of the hobby.

A lot of people can’t have, or won’t have, toxic printers at home. So while it has a future for sure, it will be a long time before hard plastic and other minis will go away. And a substantial portion of hobbyists enjoy building and making things with their hands, and 3d prints just don’t scratch that itch

@dustinhollis День назад

Not a problem. Its getting cheap enough you will see local printers popping up everywhere who are willing to do the work for you. Its only a matter of time before someone sets up a online ordering system where people can send in their order and local printer fulfills and delivers. Until then, conventions almost always have printers who will pre-print armies of minis you can buy.

Black site does some AMAZING games and rulesets, this one in particular is by Corey who's an awesome dude!

@oldoneswithdice 5 дней назад

Corey is great guy. I've talked to him on Discord and had the pleasure of meeting him at Adepticon this year.

@@oldoneswithdice Adepticon was amazing! We also brought or game to the convention. I was super surprised on how many smaller games were using 3d printing now.

@marchenplay 5 дней назад

@@oldoneswithdice Ignition core games! We have three game systems! The titular Ignition core: (Giant robots), Shining Heroes (Rpg adventure) and Magical girl assault (Fast low count skirmish wargame)

Need non toxic resin for me to get into resin. FDM is great for terrain which I am now using.

@oldoneswithdice 5 дней назад

That's what I like about BSS' approach. By selling the physical and STLs they can appeal to both markets.

Get yourself a cheap 2x2 grow tent and in-line fan combo and pump it out the house

@Wolf359inc 5 дней назад

One Page Rules is what you are looking for. Print them at home. Order physical prints. Six core systems, where the basic rules are free, and you get access to the advanced rules, forever, if you subscribe to their Patreon for just one month (though you will probably stay for much longer…).

@randomtvninja 7 дней назад

I recently backed two awesome mecha based wargames Fractured sphere And Revelations: Battlefield I'm in talks with the first game to sell printed models for them and the second game comes with both STLs and physical models.

@oldoneswithdice 6 дней назад

I totally missed the Kickstarter for Fractured Sphere. I just reached out to David about a late pledge deal. I backed Revelations Skirmish but not the latest one. I haven't had a chance to get it to the tabletop yet.

@randomtvninja 6 дней назад

@@oldoneswithdice I think everything will get uploaded to his MMF account and you'll be able to grab the STLs from there.

@franksilva3566 4 дня назад

I learn a lot from your videos, I just started printing miniatures with resin - because of your experience, it would be helpful if you did a video on how you finish or prep your prints (especially how you deal with the ‘dimples’ - I have the same issues) - is it a support settings solution or is it a finishing (sanding) or a combination of both? Thanks

@shanekhiu9884 День назад

You probably could fill in a lot of those 'dimples' with modeling clay like Citadel 'Green Stuff'.

The future is now …

@ErgonomicChair 2 дня назад

I dunno. Looks soft and rounded, no nice clean flat surfaces etc.

@Bobby11 2 дня назад

Sometimes the resin colour can make models look less crisp. So it might be worth keeping that in mind.

@ErgonomicChair 2 дня назад

@@Bobby11 Oh? Heck I had no idea tbh abhotu that so, I'll have to look out for that.

@oldoneswithdice 2 дня назад

I've definitely noticed that. When I switched printing in Elegoo Abs like 2.0 in a dark grey to Sunlu Abs like in a much lighter grey I initially thought there was a loss of detail. After priming I realised the detail was the same.

@ovarb12 3 дня назад

Wow dude another mech game. $50 for a physical copy and $15 for 1 stl file. WTF. games workshop I think is actually cheaper. Huge pass dude.

@oldoneswithdice 2 дня назад

@@ovarb12 yeah I'm not gonna lie. I had sticker shock when I saw the price on the physical minis. I only bought the one model. Though I did buy the stls for the 3 models I didn't get on the original preorder. Technically the game is mini agnostic. I think Tau Crisis suits would fit perfectly.
