Wanna talk about your hobbies or post about them? Here's your spot! From mini painting to cross stitching to crocheting.

Only 3D print settings I tweaked are for the ironing and then I've adjusted the models a bit for color, depending on the filament I have on hand. Here are some more:

I didn't design any of these, but I did find out these are made with a software called Hueforge and I intend to try to learn it and make my own models. I think the look pretty neat and I'm excited to experiment with making my own designs.

Thanks! For some reason the best one didn’t upload when I posted this but here it is:

if only international shipping didn't cost an arm and a leg doggirl-tears it's so good

Damn, these are slick! Even has a little hole in the top to put some ribon through. That's so fun! What kind of printer are you using?

[–] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago

It's a Bambulabs P1S. My last printer was an Ender 3 clone I got online for around $80 and required tons of tinkering to get printing well, so I'm pretty amazed at how well this thing prints out of the box.

Nice prints! I've seen these on thingiverse but never got around to trying them. how thick are they? Like still flexible? I worry about using them as actual bookmarks and tearing a page or something.

The skeleton ones are pretty thin. I don’t remember the exact thickness, but they aren’t much thicker than a thick paper bookmark and pretty flexible. The cherry blossom one is a bit more thick and rigid. None of them I think would tear a page anyways.

Word, good to know. Maybe I'll finally get around to it in time for holiday presents.

Those are really cool!

Gorgeous work, props to the artist!!

Very cool! How are you going about printing the different colours? Some fancy multi-material thing or just manually changing filaments between layers?

[–] Carcharodonna@hexbear.net 4 points 4 days ago

I got the printer on sale bundled with an ams unit which switches out the filament, so I’ve been using that, but these hueforge prints are made so a section of layers is a certain color, which means you can also set it up to stop the print when it hits that layer and manually change the filament if you needed to.

Nice prints! I managed to print this (using an image I found off of Google) last time I was messing around with Hueforge:

I wish I could give helpful some tips, but I mostly just followed the official YouTube tutorials and messed with the sliders until I got the colors matching the flag. There's also been a lot of updates since, so hopefully it's easier to do more isolated color selection.
