Not affiliated with the creator of these models, but I was highly skeptical of them not needing supports especially with the small pipes on some of the models. I just got done printing one myself and I was shocked that it came out clean with no supports needed! I used a regular Ender 3 FDM printer. Just make sure you use the settings listed on the site for the models. I hope this encourages people to not only try these models BUT design cool new stuff for them! This video is a winner like always.
I was totally the same. I actually wouldn't make the video with them in until I'd printed out a load of their stuff just to check it and they are really legit. Very impressive considering the detail.
Excellent video. After having gone through the "poke and prod" method of learning how to do these things over the past several months so that I could modify STLs and create my own 3d print items that better suited my needs, I can wholeheartedly get behind having a nexus of videos that go through the bulk of the learning curve. Awesome work. For new(er) Blender STL/3d print enthusiasts, your channel is a true tome of super useful knowledge. Good on you, sir. Good on you.
Thanks so much. I thought this was an interesting format/idea so if it proves interesting I may look at some more about what you can do with 3D printable files.
Would you ever consider having either a youtube video, or a dedicated patreon reward, going through your entire modelling process for something like a Marine, or really any mid-sized project?
Some "sci fi power armour" videos are coming. They are just taking longer than I expected as some things in Blender changed so I had to redo a lot of the audio
Good video. I have a question: Don't need union all pieces with Union Boolean, Remesh or CTRL + J? Generally I union the all pieces with remesh, but I don't have 3D Printer for print my models. Sometimes I make low poly assets and use remesh to union all pieces, but the low poly model isn't low poly anymore. Can I just select all pieces and export like in your video and print the model? Thank you.
@xmaruffles7535 Yeah, a printed model can have ngons and that's fine. But if recommend everything being booleaned together as mine is. You don't need to apply it for the export.
@@ArtisansofVaul I hadn't seen you used CTRL + Plus to Union all the meshes. I saw the final part again and saw you using Union Boolean. Thank you for response.
Great! It's interesting to see printed result sliding in that doorway.
@Yamanoochi I will be trying to do that a bit more. It just means having a greater lead time on videos which isn't always possible.

i couldnt agree more, ive learnt more from this channel than doing 30+ hours of paid for courses
@@MrMaawaa Wow, thats really generous to say. Thanks Mr Maawaa!

I love how your door support looks like the W of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation's logo from Aliens. Just a happy little accident. 😆
@Will_Forge completely coincidence 😏
