I’m trying my hand at printing an extra-galactic bug army on my D2 Ultra. Here’s my first finished print, printed on anycubic’s DLP craftsman resin.

      Yes, but my resin printer has serious build volume envy.

      My wife and I are cosplayers also and the d2 is basically useless for it.

      That’s why you need both! At least that’s what I told her when I preordered a prusa XL.

    Ooh, nice. Looks very clean. How is that resin?

    I was having some occasional print fails with anycubic std grey, but switched and have been using sunlu abs-like navy grey, which has worked like a charm. Printed out a full 2000 point alien hives army, just need to, you know, start painting now.

      Lol, I know the painting struggle! I have loads of minis from artisan guild printed out for my DnD game in various states of painting.

      I’m really loving the Craftsman. I haven’t played with too many resins, I used zmud for a while on my mono 4k but I’ve had such great luck with the Craftsman that I’m pretty sold on it.

      I’ve been basically printing non stop for about a month and a half with only a few failures, all due to support issues.
