I think you'll like the Da Vinci Colineo line in 1, 2 and 4. Love them! I like them better than the Monument Hobbies Pro Synthetics.
time to time i want to relax from painting miniatures and order a bunch of chinese bootleg gunplas for like 5 to 10 euros each they are amazing for the price and specifically on those older kits like rx-78, zaku variants, GM they are pretty close to the official product highly recomend if u want to paint something way bigger than the average wargaming miniature
That’s fun, I really like the official mini artifact kits, same size as a mini but Gunpla, fully articulated and under £10
I own about 500€ worth of knockoff lego and If it was authentic lego the price would be something up to 3500€
I'll stick with my 3 M5s printers putting out 3x's the production
Absolutely fair, the m5s is a great printer
Be very careful with your purchase. Elegoo may sell replacement parts for the Mars 5 Ultra. They do not sell replacement parts for the Mars 5. One resin leak and you are buying a new printer. There are no replacement LCDs for the Mars 5.
I thought the screens are the same for both printers? Regardless you should buy the ultra, if only for the calibration tools
Do you have a video (or can you refer me to one) that takes a 3D resin print with the Mars 5 Ultra (or something similar) from the beginning (STL file, adding a base) to the end (UV, IPA washing, etc.)? Good video, btw! I have everything I need but don't want to begin without some knowledge/confidence on how to complete all the steps. Thx!
Check out this one, while it doesn’t run step by step it links to lots of good videos and creators and also goes over some basics too. Jump on my discord too and I will help you out
As long as the print lines are still visible, the search still goes on
You have to crank up the magnification to see layer lines, I can’t see them with the naked eye
Sorry I'm in a loud place but do these glow under a black light once shinned on and not after the light is of it, mainly if the white one does.
All the Lascaux ones did, half the pro acryl. The white 💯 does
I tried your code but didn't do anything
At the moment I don’t have a discount code just a link, if you buy anything using it I get a small kickback and you support me and Wargamer. If I do manage to get a discount code I will let you know
James, if you'd ever like to organise something similar, we'd be so happy to sponsor you again 😄 We love how much creativity it brought out of all the participants, and how unique each owl turned out, despite coming from the same model. And thank you so much for all the kind words about Wargamer. It is not THE perfect resin, but for tabletop minis, it is pretty dang good 👍
Thanks so much guys, I wish more companies put as much effort into sponsorships as you did. I would be delighted to work with you again.
❤️🤘🔥
🔥
This was so kuch fun! Thank you James! And the sponsor.
Thanks 🙏
clickbait
Whooo, I did manage to sneak in as a text cameo with the mention of Project Owl, woooohooooo!! I'm hoping to be part of the next challenge, as it looked like it was a good bit of fun. I'm also super curious about the resin - hopefully the Canadian distributor will be able to have better pricing, especially for shipping in the near future ^_^
Yeh get involved for next time
@@RisingApe I am glad I chose the way I did though, as the injury has taken a great deal longer than expected to recover. Got to enjoy seeing all the WIPs and people encouraging each other along though!
What an absolute blast, and a cracking gallery of pieces!
It really was, and yeh everyone knocked it out of the park
Arrrghhh, my voice! This was such a great challenge. Fantastic stories and models from everyone who participated. Looking forward to more challenges in the future! 😊
Hahah, I went through that trial several years ago, you get used to it, great work folks
I love the confusion and arguments around buying non Lego sets. Forget about “Fake” or “Rip-Off’ or “Knock-off” arguments. In fact lets for arguments sake say you don’t want Lego at all but instead you want a nice Rolex watch but don’t want to splurge 10K+ on one. So you go on holiday and buy a knock-off for £100ish. You haven’t saved nearly 10K on a Rolex because you haven’t purchased a Rolex. You have purchased a £10 junk watch for £100. Everyone that sees it knows its junk and when you get bored with it and take it to your local Rolex dealer and try to cash in on your bargain you will be laughed at. The same thing is true with Lego. Only Lego is Lego, Only Lego retains its value in the second hand market. So if you can’t or won’t pay Lego prices you will get cheap plastic building bricks, Thats all, You haven’t saved a load of Money on Lego because you don’t have Lego.
I get what you’re saying but if you choose to save £9,900 buying the cheaper watch you have still saved the 9,900, it doesn’t have the resale value sure but equally you don’t need it because it costs 1% of the original cost. The point you seem to be making is the brand carries value, it’s up to you if that’s worth it for the status of having a Rolex or not.
the title just pisses me off "i built the biggest warhammer LEGO on the internet" the biggest lego what? biggest warhammer lego *built* biggest warhammer lego *model* biggest warhammer lego *design* biggest warhammer lego *creation* all of these would be fine and acceptable but just calling it "a lego" pisses me off to no end, i know i know im making a way bigger deal out of it than it has to be ... i know that its still horrible its like calling a brick wall "a brick" or calling a piece of origami/paper airplane "a paper"
Fair enough, i tested more grammatically correct versions but they weren’t clicked as often
Here's something that will change resin printing - not needing a lab and a hazmat suit to use one.
Your not wrong.. we need a Star Trek replicator
Noice beaky krooza!👍
Try buying dice i bought some for Dungeons and Dragons but I wonder how warhammer dice would be
For someone who likes to repeat the virtues of being a "grown up" I've never heard so much whinging and moaning about having to build a 700 dollar lego he got for 200 bucks.
Fair
Having watched Ross sing the praises of this printer, and now you, there's no doubting it's a wonderful thing but unfortunately it's also prohibitively expensive, as is their resin. Also, being locked into the HeyGears resin chain. For me, it's another, "If ever I win the lottery" item. A hard thing to do as I don't play the lottery 😂 Great video nonetheless, thank you )O(
Absolutely I have said in previous videos that this printer isn’t for everyone. There are plenty of machines available for much less that do a great job
Thank you for the video (and time/effort that takes). Lots of great information, I forgot Golden was employee owned. No wonder they are so awesome when you contact them. I LOVE Golden!
Thanks for the lovely comment
Great model…just wondering when GW will try to take this one to court. 🤔
No idea 🤷♂️
can you please tell me what kind of files the slicer converts the finished supported files into? like what kind of files are these? is it possible to open the finished auto supported files with lychee and chitubox? i would like to use the program to auto support my sculpts. that would save me alot of time...
Yeh I wish I could do this, it saves the files as .utx which afaik isn’t compatible with anything else
i live in southern Florida so everyone complaining about a heater is a moot point for me.
Yup more a dehumidifier that you need 😉
why did fauxhammer do a very similar video at the same time?🤷🏻♂️
I released mine first but it’s just coincidence, it’s not a paid thing from hey gears or anything.
Fauxhammer? I stopped watching Fauxhammer after he admitted he was putting misleading scenes in his videos as a "joke" and then claimed I was at fault for taking his videos seriously. We look to leading reviewers for best practices, but it turns out he's not really good for that.
There are plenty of reviewers out there I am a big fan of FauxHammer and his no BS approach. All most of us are trying to do is make interesting videos and give honest feedback. It’s actually harder to do than you might think
@@RisingApe I worked in video production for years. I already know what's involved. And I know that if he is making information videos and claiming they are information videos, they should be real information, not BS that he smirks at fooling the newbies with, which is what he does.
@@robcat2075 Any examples of these false informations? I am curious to know what I'm being fooled.
@@Mikilangelo For many videos I noticed a shot where he was pouring his resin, not into the vat, but on top of the build plate and letting it drizzle down into the vat. It seemed odd bu, I'm just a novice and he's the CZcams expert, right? I've taken chemistry classes and there are some non-obvious procedures for properly transferring materials... maybe it's one of those, I wonder. I ask about it and he says it's a "long-running joke". I say it's misleading and he says I shouldn't have looked to him expecting information. Wow. That's a tech reviewer saying that. I'm sure his fans will insist on giving him a pass for that one little thing, but... that's the one I've caught so far. How much of the rest of it is BS too but I haven't detected yet because... I'm a novice! So, no reason to continue watching Fauxhammer. We have other options, people who are not trying to prank the newbies. Truth be told, his videos are already over-bloated with repetitive commentary and ranting. They were already a waste of time on that count even without the hi... larious... jokes.
This isn't, and cannot be, "the end of 3d printing as we know it". That's like saying cars coming from the factory with track tires already installed is going to be the end of aftermarket tires. 3d printing is by definition a hacker creation. And I use the term "hacker" in its original and true context, not in the current "breaking into computer systems (cracker) meaning. There will always be a market for 3d printer systems that are print medium brand agnostic. The PC was never the death of the Apple or Mac. The gaming console was supposed to kill off PC gaming 20 years ago. Until a core technology goes away, there is always a market for non proprietary components and ecosystems.
I got an original mars many moons ago and it still works fine. Don't care for the new build plate for the same reasons you and others stated. I'll be buying one I'm sure but it'll be at least a year form now to see how reliable the tilt mechanism is.
I think that’s absolutely the right approach, you won’t need to wait a full year but certainly give it a few months
Working on an ork stomppa rn should I use plastic cement or just super glue due to its size?
If it’s plastic, use plastic cement, if it’s anything else use superglue
I have no doubt in my mind that this is one of the best printers on the market right now if not the best. But $1500 plus $50-$80 per bottle of resin is just prohibitively expensive. Again, I’m sure it’s fantastic. I just cannot be even close to affording that right now, not to mention it’s not even a 10 inch build plate. It’s closer to the size of a Mars.
No doubt it’s no for everyone and for minis, something like the S4U are incredible machines too
Is it useful to apply the tamiya decals with tamiya cement?
No use something like microsol for decals
How does pap10 and parp10 compare to phrozen 8k resin in terms of detail and quality? Using phrozen on a GK2
Quality is unreal, using the pap-10 is better than anything I can print on my GK2 even using high detail resins. The parp is still good but notch or two down from there
👍👍👍
blow it up.
Reads thumbnail... Agreed.
I’m a fellow HG Reflex lover and have about six months under my belt with it for engineering applications including casting metals with the PAC10 resin. Just quick note: from my research the Form4 uses a system that sounds identical to the PRM unit of the HG’s. It’s just built into their printer. Also, the PAH10 resin is the strongest resin they make by a long shot. Use it where strength is critical. Lastly, I regularly use third party resins in my HG’s printer. It works wonderfully doing so.
Yeh I want to have a crack with PAC-10 at some point. The PAH is ace, I’m looking forward to trialling the silicone resin too.
@@RisingApeif you do try PAC10, reach out. I found their recommended burnout wasnt ideal. I modified it to be more of a conventional resin burnout (theirs seems based on wax) and it worked fantastic! The print quality of PAC10 is like nothing I’ve seen and utterly effortless. Unlike every other burnoutable resin I’ve used
Lego is better then gw
I mean, why not both??
@@RisingApe lego is mainly what i buy
I painted my first mini (3D printed by a friend) with a 4€ 12 set of 14ml acrylics with included brushes (usable) and palette (useless plastic waste, made a wet palette out of a plastic lid and some kitchen roll). It turned out fine, if a bit glossy.
Exactly you don’t need all the gear for decent models
Hey mate! Love your videos, love from Australia here mate! I’m a brand newby getting a resin printer soon and I’ve managed to snag a pre order for the gk3 ultra at 999 usd, but I’m still torn between it and the hey gears, both are amazing and I’m a bit deterred though by the price of resin for the HG hey gears, and that I can’t change any of the settings if needed. I know it’s perfect out of the box but in future it’ll change and we will still be stuck with that software, settings and resin. I will mostly print miniatures, busts, models and such so I’m happy for your thoughts and input if you’d kindly, I’m just torn between the two 🙂 Love your content mate you are an absolute legend
Cheers for the kind words, I haven’t used a GK3 yet but I love my GK2. For the heygears it’s a big investment sure, if you are a new printer honestly the GK will be a great buy the only decision will be the build volume / vat size, if you have space then the GK is a beast. For me the GK is ideal for most of my printing needs.
@@RisingApe Cheers for the info mate! So you reckon go the GK over the heygears?
Amazing, high-end, consumer piece of kit. Thank you for introducing Hey Gears, Reflex as quite possibly the BEST 3D Resin based Printer. I'm a novice , just getting started into 3D filament printing. However, as a retired sheet fed operator, of typically four, five, & six unit offset, full size (40 inch), ink to paper, printing presses. Industry leaders such as, Mitsubishi & Heidelberg (Speedmaster). I've been through many stages of printing & seen it evolve over the years. Early on when I began the trade of printing on paper, it was working in the format known as led type set. These were most often single unit (1 colour, more often black), however, one German Heidelberg printing press stands out the most, from my many, learning experiences on it. That was like the ultimate, revolutionary machine of its time. A strong & heavy press (for those days). The German ink printing machine, called the Heidelberg, Kord. Just google it. That press helped evolve the industry. What I mean by that is, after laying out small, individual pieces of led type, setting it all, individually into a wooden, flat, holder, called a chase. Well this was quite laborious, clever, unique, stylish & all, but once I disassembled this press somewhat. Cleaned the press, and made it ready by installing 16, or more cylinders and rollers, this meticulous, but slow press was transformed into a speed demon. One of the worlds first truly fast, ink printing, off-set style presses. Capable of handling both, type-set, & off-set printing. Now we no longer had to work with individual type pieces of led. Because now we can assemble much more content. Rich, flowing images, and text developed by camera onto plate. Years later in my career, I watched the disposal of a lot of skilled pre-press workers.You see with the ever more increasing use of more advancements in electronics, the technology forced many skilled workers in camera & plate development out of jobs. Take for instance the final versions of multiple unit presses, made by Heidelberg. Just as we rolled into the new millennium, Y2K came about, so did the elite of the Heidelberg, Speedmaster's, off-set printing presses. There was no more hanging the plates to impression cylinders. Instead, every time new plates were required on units, laser diodes went into operation & burnt a new plate. The plates' image came from a RIP on someone's computer, somewhere, after being proofed & signed off by a graphic artist, as well as the client.

Thanks for your very informative, quality video cast. Hopefully many more to come.
Amazing, high-end, consumer piece of kit. Thank you for introducing Hey Gears, Reflex as quite possibly the BEST 3D Resin based Printer. I'm a novice , just getting started into 3D filament printing. However, as a retired sheet fed operator, of typically four, five, & six unit offset, full size (40 inch), ink to paper, printing presses. Industry leaders such as, Mitsubishi & Heidelberg (Speedmaster). I've been through many stages of printing & seen it evolve over the years. Early on when I began the trade of printing on paper, it was working in the format known as led type set. These were most often single unit (1 colour, more often black), however, one German Heidelberg printing press stands out the most, from my many, learning experiences on it. That was like the ultimate, revolutionary machine of its time. A strong & heavy press (for those days). The German ink printing machine, called the Heidelberg, Kord. Just google it. That press helped evolve the industry. What I mean by that is, after laying out small, individual pieces of led type, setting it all, individually into a wooden, flat, holder, called a chase. Well this was quite laborious, clever, unique, stylish & all, but once I disassembled this press somewhat. Cleaned the press, and made it ready by installing 16, or more cylinders and rollers, this meticulous, but slow press was transformed into a speed demon. One of the worlds first truly fast, ink printing, off-set style presses. Capable of handling both, type-set, & off-set printing. Now we no longer had to work with individual type pieces of led. Because now we can assemble much more content. Rich, flowing images, and text developed by camera onto plate. Years later in my career, I watched the disposal of a lot of skilled pre-press workers.You see with the ever more increasing use of more advancements in electronics, the technology forced many skilled workers in camera & plate development out of jobs. Take for instance the final versions of multiple unit presses, made by Heidelberg. Just as we rolled into the new millennium, Y2K came about, so did the elite of the Heidelberg, Speedmaster's, off-set printing presses. There was no more hanging the plates to impression cylinders. Instead, every time new plates were required on units, laser diodes went into operation & burnt a new plate. The plates' image came from a RIP on someone's computer, somewhere, after being proofed & signed off by a graphic artist, as well as the client. Next a spool fed roll of mylar with another substance layered on the top, gets rolled into action with the laser diodes burning & etching out the finished work onto the plate cylinder, holding precise register (perfect position in relation with all other plates on the press).

Thank you so much for your videos. It was your content that helped me finally make the decision to order an UltraCraft Reflex. Also, thank you SO much for the discount code! I really enjoy your channel and look forward to your future content. Keep up the great work!
Awesome thank you for the comment and the kind words, glad you found it helpful! Welcome to to the club.
I just got a Warhammer ad by entering this video.
Sorry dude, fair warning Warhammer is a slippery slope!
U realy are gona need nice display shelving for sure if u planing on keeping on whit these kind of vids and build especaly when u dont want to take them apart
Catch your own fish ❤
i got recommended this video and i gotta say, those were the greatest 10 minutes i've spent on youtube on a while, i specially love how you make sure to support the creator of the model, not everyone does that so yeah, definitely this is the kind of content i want to see during my free times
Thanks for taking the time to write this!
I dunno when ads ended and right clip started. In the middle I guess?
