Great job. I like Green Stuff for smaller parts but having watched Squidmar recently, he was using Tamiya Epoxy Putty, which looks a lot easier to work with. Might be worth giving that ago, though it is a bit pricier than the ol' green chewing gum. Awesome statue and thanks for sharing the process. Subscribed )O(
Great video the warm water trick I learned from a french Guy on line, also for sticky resin that wont come off of the FEP sheet use a med bristle paint brush, I would like to know what resin you are using? Thanks for the video.
Yup it has been a go-to trick for me since I first tried it. As far as the Resin I use, I have always just used Anycubic Standard Resin. Although I have 5L of High Speed Resin to try out soon. But all of my videos have just been Anycubic Standard, although I have used different colours from White, Skin, Grey, Black and clear.
This model was printed on a Anycubic Mono X but it so happened to be the print that killed my printer. But with my next video I will introduce my new Anycubic Mono M5s Pro. So stay tuned for a look at that!
What a awesome statue, thank you for sharing this detailed process. I myself have a Ender 3 Neo filament printer and am in the process of understanding the whole resin printer and safety steps. This information was very informative and enlightening as to showing not only the beauty of printing this statue but also providing the situations that will require a mental state of how to tackle failures and save one from wasting more time and resin. Really appreciate you sharing this with the community.
Thanks for the great comment. I am currently editing a video introducing my new resin printer. I would recommend having a look at that once I finish it as I look at the Anycubic M5s Pro. In my opinion it is an awesome beginners resin printer due to its simplified setup. If you do pull the trigger on a resin printer I think you will love the level of detail when compared to your FDM. Especially on really small .... and really large prints.
I'm always disappointed in the warping and ill-fitting parts in builds like this. Is that something inherent to resin printing? I was really hoping that the minute detail achievable would translate into dimensional accuracy - but that rarely seems to be the case, unfortunately.
Yea, it seems to be inherent of any multi part project. I find it's not such an issue for single piece prints (complete model) or 32mm scale pieces as the area that can warp is pretty minimal. I have heard some people achieve pretty good results glueing the pieces before curing, but personally, I don't like the idea of glueing uncured resin. It's one downside over FDM but it makes up for it with such fine details on the models themselves.
@@upskillinglife Organic shapes definitely help in hiding the issue. Maybe I'm just naive, but I still hold out hope that there is some magic combination of resin/supports/curing that will bring us closer to perfection.
I don't think so. I'm pretty sure Loot Studios only provides this model with the whole Vikings pack. As a heads up, loot Studios usually does some great discounts on Black Friday for older subscription bundles.
try apoxie sculpt. it is much more beginner friendly in matching textures and filling spaces. green stuff is very hit and miss for me
Hey great, thanks for the tip!
Great work! Love seeing a failed print being used again!
Awesome, cheers. I plan on doing a video soon, repurposing some of my failed print collection into something useful.
Try milliput , you can smooth with water and it hardens like resin ! Plus you can get different colours
Thanks I will give it a go if I manage to get my hands on some. Cheers!

Thanks for subscribing and the tip on the Tamiya Epoxy Putty. Glad you liked the statue!

Hey I loved this type of video keep going 🙂 which resin printer model/make are you using?

@@upskillinglife ah that sucks! Hopefully the new one works a charm

Hello, is it possible to order the statue alone, without the complete Viking pack? THANKS
I don't think so. I'm pretty sure Loot Studios only provides this model with the whole Vikings pack. As a heads up, loot Studios usually does some great discounts on Black Friday for older subscription bundles.
try Magic Sculpt which can be blended and smoothed with water and very strong. to fill in and make parts.
Awesome, thanks. I will keep an eye out for it.
