Hey, for easy accenting of the recessed area's look into gunpla panel lining. Same technique on a larger work piece. First Gloss coat your paint job. Then use black gloss enamel and thinner mix and let capillary action fill in the lines. Use thinner on a paper towel afterwords to clean up anything you goofed on. So fast and looks great.

i saw someone print a entire helmet with a holo sphere inside the helmet. a sphere doesnt require any infill because of the nature of the shape and so you can basically print a helmet with mostly a void inside and then supports around that. Saves you a bunch of time, filament, cleanup if you do it this way. While i havent personally tried this trick i saw someone do it with a black panther mask and it cut down their print time and material significantly.

Brown spots are probably caused by the nozzle dragging and pickling up filament and burning. That would also cause a layer shift as well.
@punishedprops6 жыл бұрын

@VRietySociety6 жыл бұрын
large PLA prints Do warp this is the chief cause of your issue even with good adhesion to the print surface. this caused what joe indicated. Part warps causng nozzle to touch previous layers. this causes the x/y axis motors to become overload and skip steps which cause the miss-aligned layers. It also caused your print to detach from the supports. I printed a deadspace healmet i modeled in tinkercad/meshmixer. and i had to break it down in several parts to avoid this issue.

If you ever print anything else in HIPS try giving plastic model glues a try. From experience they are much stronger than super glue. They basically chemically fuse polystyrene parts together. Strongest bond I have ever seen in an adhesive.
@punishedprops6 жыл бұрын
We got some of that glue! The model glue worked great for gluing styrene to styrene. But when I tried styrene to the Z-HIPS, the glue never cured and the high impact polystyrene filament got all mushy. That was just one, quick test, though, before I switched to superglue.
@TheLongHairedFellow6 жыл бұрын
Usually plastic models are made from ABS, so this plastic model glue really only works well on ABS, not really great for Styrene. I would also suggest being very light with the glue as it is meant to melt plastics together rather than stick them together.
