Right! That was a super clear view of it, I have missed this video it seems. Well, for sure quicker than a FDM per layer, but with thinner layers of course, so hard to judge really. But regardless; a plate with 1 figure will be quicker than one with 50, compared to today's resin where it's the same.

No, the print quality is "resin good" (or better) so that is not the problem, but I can imagine the print speed per full plate might be quite slow, depending on the exact solution. I cannot fully see how it prints; per full plate, or strips thereof per swipe.

Yes, basically like a FDM from the bottom up, which could slow it down to begin with when printing "a whole army" if the head doesn't do the whole plate per sweep (even if it's not as bad as a FDM head), but if the resin is back to the "plastic obsidian" brittleness it's not much use either.

True. I however expect to be able to colour in things myself. The big thing is that these machines doesn't use STLs, so I hope they can be converted.

I'm eyeing this with interest. The possibility to colour up an army and just maybe give it a wash, really appeals to me who is sick of the painting... The price will most likely come down quickly, but there are of course other concerns like resin quality and cost.

The little shit's troll is fully done with a couple of tufts and a cheap display dome from Amazon. I magnetized it so it doesn't rattle around but still can be picked up and dropped. 🙄 Something his 7 y.o. friends can drool in vain over... 😅

Ooooh, very nifty! Which design is this?

I did a river troll for my best friend Christopher (a.k.a. The Little Shit) today. He loves the one with the fish I made for myself so it's basically just a copy of that. The never-used Stirland Battlemire apparently takes billions of years to dry but I'll dry-brush it and add some grass too.

That looks great! Do you know which list you will use for them?

Only one unit got it twice, but settled with fighting within the unit. 😅

Smygpainter (Pelle) @smygpainter.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
What settled the day was the dwarf warriors getting absolutely clobbered and surrounded.

Smygpainter (Pelle) @smygpainter.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
The dwarven crossbowmen took a massive barrage of arrows, losing 2/3 of the unit, and the surviving trolls turned the slayers into paste. The thane unexpectedly had to withstand the orc chase of the Longbeards and got surrounded, but he quickly killed the orc champion and two more.

Had a small trial game of Warhammer 4th edition tonight. The river trolls engaged the slayers and Ruglud and his lads engaged the dwarf warriors. The orc boys charged the Longbeards who promptly skedaddled a roll of 12...

Thanks! Yes, on the table everything tends to just look "dark", any subtleties are lost completely, so hooray for Oldhammer's insano-vision! 😂

I think this will work for my night goblins; a half inverted theme with rather bright clothing and a dark, high-contrast "heraldry". Well, regardless of whether it works or not this is now the chosen theme, so ya boo sucks to you, Fritzy. 💁😅

No, this is all you, I'm afraid... 😂 More seriously; they should be all-white with an even layer, so you need to add quite a lot more than this, methinks.

Smygpainter (Pelle) @smygpainter.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
The thing here is really: do you multi-base or single-base your figures? If you only single-base the puddle base is unnecessary (but I still prefer them)...

As the ancient Greeks said: "Fucking finally!". My take on my old stripped Ruglud's armoured orcs who according to lore picked up their heavy armour and crossbows from Chaos dwarves. I spent too much money on 15 extra figures, and they were a lot of work for a dodgy result, but here we are... 💁

My problem is that I'm half blind with one "good" eye, so I use a magnifier to see shit at all, but that also allows me to see all the belt buckles which my inner fascist wants painted...and then I put shit on the table and I can barely see the unit...

I might do some night goblins and I've tried out some possible alternative themes. 🤔 All black is traditional, but also mildly boring, and grey is still very muted but slightly more visible. I do like the blue hood, though. The dinner plate is the shield attachment.

It seems to be decently base painted after all, so a wash and refurbishment might be enough?

Barring the banner my 24 Karak Norn dwarf warriors are done. The flock is a trial with Noch 8460 Medium grey sawdust for a quick "cave floor" look as I'm picturing cave wars against goblins and whatnot, but it also works quite ok on my more speckled terrain mats. Good enough for government work... 💁

Thanks! There is a huge difference between the paints, and I actually prefer them with less shading because as you say the thinner ones sometimes look very bleak.
010
Smygpainter (Pelle) @smygpainter.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
I tried two night goblins from white primer and 99% contrast paints; one in Black Templar with some shading, the other in a heavy coat of Basilicanum grey which quite obviously becomes a little brighter. I might use both. No further washes used on these, but overall quite happy with the concept.

Hm, individually based figures? Do you know if this is a skirmish game or a "casualty removal from unit" game?
