Can You Paint 3D Prints WITHOUT Primer? (Captain Planet)

[@davidseim4106]

Can I just say your channel has changed my life. I use my Airbrush more. Pinkle has transformed my world. Your sense of humor is amazing. Thank you sirà

[@markoramljak9579]

By your powers combined, I am Captain Planet! :D I used to love that cartoon as a kid :D

[@Groundeffected]

Me too but it’s kinda weird now lol

[@sveeart]

Captain Planet, he's our hero... gonna take pollution down to zeroooooh 😁

[@Groundeffected]

We were such dorks.

[@bacawaka2813]

You can even paint some pastic without primer. I made a ton of color swatches on polystyrene spoons that don't have a primer layer underneath. Trick is to go light at first and let the initial layer dry before adding more layers. Nice paint job, BTW.

[@Groundeffected]

Yup. This is true.

[@Bertolf100]

I'm pleased to see that your dad is so good at this.

[@Taruk620]

Killer work! Thank you man! Always a pleasure to see you work

[@Groundeffected]

Thank you dude.

[@DobbsyLondon]

One of the top themes of the day. Denver the last dinosaur was also.....a banger. Tight buns but not rogues buns.

[@Ascalante80]

Again splendid work. I love your style

[@SebastianRamirezH]

Thank you so much. In my country is difficult to find a good primer. I always had the doubt if I could paint without primer and you solved it hehe.

[@justingasparotto5225]

Love the content and the "free-balling" commentary! Keep up the good work!

[@HobbyLinkInternational]

love your videos. Been binge watching them today. Cannot wait to try some of your techniques because I am horrid at figures lol

[@TheVoidsForge]

By your likes combined, I am... Your dad! Missed solid joke opportunity lol. Loved the vid. Going to do my first airbrush 3d model this week. Pray for me and my family..

Educational, inspirational, and FUNNY! BING BAM BOOM!

[@chrisradford5630]

Mr groundefftected ... good afternoon to you sir ... Been working my way through your videos which are great 👍.. Im just getting into 3d modeling and painting ... and there are so many different colours of paint needed .. but are there some that a newbie like my self should aquire first ? .. key colours or specific sets ?.. BTW already picked up some deck tan 😂.. Many thanks and keep up the good work !.

[@mechanical_bob6591]

Thank you for NOT playing music with police sirens in it. Very distracting while listening to you while in my car.

[@Groundeffected]

Was there police sirens? 😂

[@mechanical_bob6591]

@@Groundeffected in many of your videos yes. well it sounds like (USA) police sirens.

Gooooo Planet! OK is it just me, or does he look like Patrick Swayze??...

[@cggentry]

That's gorgeous! Space Ghost next? Everyone loves painting white and yellow... 🫠

[@trenthawkins9563]

Your stuff is awesome I have seen most of your videos and some more than two or three times. I found a gold paint you might can use if you could find it over their it is called LIQUID LEAF from Hobby Lobby the Classic Gold variety. It works good and looks good I don't know if it will airbrush or not I have not tried it. Keep up with the awesome painting and videos they have helped me a lot. THANKS.

[@Jack-ds4py]

Great job Dad!!! lol

[@christo45566]

Ive been eye off that model but it said it was a private commission and not for sale, guess I know where for now

[@williamowens5144]

Great job and will definitely take a look at the new STL maker. Also, is it just me or does Cap look an awful lot like Jack Burton?

[@kyle-xi6ku]

I love your work, it’s all beautiful.

[@Groundeffected]

Thank you so much!

[@vinanderson2535]

I've always found that without primer there's a good chance that masking tape will pull the paint to some extent whereas with primer it very rarely if ever does. So my 2 cents is that it's just a safer method to prime before painting just to mitigate the risk of having to repaint/touch up parts that have lost paint to removing tape. I've also found that with primer the finish adheres better. Without primer I've been able to scratch/rub the paint off the model quite easily in comparison to a primed surface.

[@Groundeffected]

This is just to answer a question that gets asked a million times. And I did mention it’s better to use primer in the video. But also if anything this just proves that it’s more about the prep before any paint that matters more even the best primer won’t stick to a poorly prepared model.

[@YoKins]

awesome throwback! How about Darkwing Duck next? lol

[@gilbertkho3793]

damn! love this one a lot

[@ImToxii]

I’d love to see a video about your airbrush. I can’t get mine to give me any real pigment and its dripping water everywhere on the piece too…

[@j2c3d15]

well done !!

[@ilikenothingtoo]

Really needs a Don Cheadle portrait option.

[@Groundeffected]

Agreed. I think he said he was gonna make one.

[@OsamaAltmeme]

where i can get this file stl captain planet ?

[@LoneYukon]

they shoulda just called him...uh..."Capt. Mullet".....or "Lawn Mullet Man", uh....or something.

You are too good!

[@Explore-Gobal]

Love your stuff!

[@raylowry1265]

[@doro626]

The screaming head looks more liek Captain Pollution for some reason.

[@BenBoersma]

"Your paint will still stick to the 3D printed model without primer as long as a few things are ADHERED to..." 😂

[@Groundeffected]

Hahahahahaha like the paint to the model?

[@MrPeterFountains]

Would washing all of the parts with a degreaser like purple power after curing make the process any better?

[@Groundeffected]

I never had any problems. So I guess unless you haven’t managed to clean them properly then yea degrease is a good idea. But alcohol is a degreaser anyway so seems a bit redundant and just extra work

[@HotRodimus-sg2su]

He actually looks like Kurt Russell. Lol! I wonder if he would have played the part if they made a movie back in the 90s.

[@Groundeffected]

It was based on Tom cruise 🚢

[@TK-421_66]

Heart kid did get screwed but not because his power sucked but that they didn't let him go ham controlling massive insect swarms or commanding great whites. Dude was potentially Beastmaster turned up to 11 but all we ever saw was him talking to monkeys or something. Beautiful job on the skin. Weird skin colors can be tricky IMO.

[@Groundeffected]

Yea. He did kinda get a the short stick tho

[@shaungreen9110]

I don’t own an airbrush, can I get the zenithal highlights using a white primer aerosol spray can ?

[@Groundeffected]

Yea. It won’t be as accurate but will do a very similar job. Just make sure you thin your paints over the top though so that they aren’t too thick when you brush them

[@shaungreen9110]

Thanks Brent , I’ll give it a try 👍

[@lordsnake1988]

Cool

[@enigmaticreverieproduction5169]

I’m still struggling to print models that are actually attached to the supports. I keep getting prints at the end of the day and all I see on the build plate are supports

[@andrew_barros]

You have suction cupping happening (add relief holes) or you need stronger or more supports.

[@blaineatkins2968]

You should do the 28cm Vampire Marcus.....I'd love to see you do the skin....i'd love to see your techniques😢...

It's ironic that every product used to make the model of captain planet was most likely made and transported using petroleum products.

[@MrJones31]

He looks like Kurt Russell oO

[@hicontrast]

EARTH, WIND, FIRE , WATER..... (Everyone giggling and pointing) ... 😢HEART

[@ScytheNoire]

He's wearing a bikini. His skin is actually supposed to be like clean water, shiny with a blue tint. In the cartoon he has these sparkle all around him to show he was pristinely clean. Each of the stupid kids ring colours are represented in his colouring. Amusingly, there is also a Captain Pollution, which five adult polluters summon. Dorky 90s crap. :) For chromes, if you haven't check out Vallejo's metal colours, it's one of the best metallic paint lines.

[@Groundeffected]

Lol it was so cool back then but so dumb now days hahaha

[@kakashisan4072]

We really need a new formulation of paint that sticks to 3d prints like super glue.

[@Groundeffected]

Seems to Stick alright for me.

[@mechanical_bob6591]

Bikini and Crop Top... He was way ahead of his time...

[@Groundeffected]

Way ahead.

[@evancleary3315]

well that broke my brain 🤣 no primer? what wizardry is this? do you need to sacrifice a goat first? also I have another annoying question for you someone elses dad, how lng do you cure your prints for? Im using sunlu abs like (thanks for answering that Q), i ran a few tests and turns out 3 minutes is the max cure i could do before the print warped, does this sound right to you?🤔

[@Groundeffected]

It’s gonna depend on the curer I do 5 mins on one of mine and 8 on another

I dont always use primer, and the paint sticks but it does depend on the paint

Yea. It’s more just a thought experiment, doesn’t really matter until the paint doesn’t stick 🤣
