Ok guys, I lied a little bit. I've spray painted plenty of models, but this is my first go at *hand* painting. How did I do? Tips?
You did great but there is always room for improvement!!
P.S I love your channel and you have such amazing creativity that a lot of the time you channel into real life practicality!!!
your painting was definetly better than mine so i cant say anything that would be negative.
Layers and layers and more layers! Adding the dots was a good idea, but if you wanted to hide the rough edges even more, it's good to put some dots on the line itself
Nice job. Both models are very fine. I thought first the "original" was a plushy thing. Next time you print 2 halves, you may remove the bottom part in the slicer, just print the perimeter and internal infill. Then sand the bottoms on an plane surface, so you can have an almost invisible minimal gap when glued. Maybe you can cut the part with an extra 0.5 mm on each so you can sand the 0.5mm to an almost perfect joint (easily done in Prusa Sli3er). Voilà, waiting for your next bee-deo
@@msjkramey yes great dot work
You should make more of these rejected animal 3d prints and make like a little display of all of them. You could also put name plates on their bases
Yes omg i would love to see that!
Yes!!!
I want the short snake!!!
some kid in my school just got a 3D printer and we spent about five minutes just talking about your videos 😂. I don’t own a 3D printer but I love watching your videos
I use wood filler for my figures too. One tip, depends on your wood filler, you can thin it with water and make it viscous enough brush or even dip the figure. Let it dry, sand and redo it until satisfied. Also, your channel and videos are what tip me over and made me seriously considering getting a 3d printer.
just get one. you will then constantly ask yourself why you didnt get it earlier :D
Its the Ghibli shark, and looks even more so with the smoothed look! Lol I love the great wide shark, it's so cute
Can you please make the short snake next???
If you wanna split a model to make it easier to print, I suggest modeling some holes and pins in it to get it aligned. It helps to hide the seam, so if you're doing something like painting it, you don't have to worry about it. I've done it before with a little Kirby I gave my girlfriend for her birthday and the seam was pretty much invisible!!
Hand painting is fun and makes prints so much better looking. I did it for my Groot(avatar pic).
Yeah do more of these. 👍
I saw that print on Thingiverse but by the looks of it you did a great job on the paint job
I've got a couple very plain looking Groots. Yours looks amazing! I'm inspired, thanks.
This is probably the most informative and straightforward finishing/painting 3D prints video I've seen, and I've been looking for vids like this for yearss
Therapist: Great Wide Shark doesn't exist.
Great Wide Shark:
*plays the wide putin song*
Great wide shark: 😬
All rejected animals deserve a little acceptance. You need to make more!
The varnish added another layer of texture as well as depth to the piece! I think it made the shark even more visually appealing
i love how when you make a mistake you don’t give up and you just quickly find a way to fix it, like you meant to do a mistake
It's impossible to be perfect, so that's the key ;)
What the heck was the sound when you pulled the shark out from behind you? XD lol
Secret_Shark.mp3 🎶
@@make.anything I don't know why it made me laugh lol
Your vids are always so relaxing and satisfying to watch!
I love you Devin! You are so helpful and you make this all so much fun!
This was so relaxing to watch I was even inspired to draw again, which is crazy cuz I haven't drawn in almost a year
"Hey make anything, how much primer did u use?"
Make Anything: "Yes!"
I really think that what the varnish did was really interesting. How it made it cloudy and such. But what i love the most is the fact that it gave the piece some extra character. Overall a Great wide shark
That’s awesome. It’s seeing your work “evolve”.
hey devon !! just wanna tell u that i dont have a 3d printer or pen, don't plan on ever buying one and ure the only 3d printing channel i watch. so...just know ure entertaining and interesting enough to keep someone like me watching for about 2 years !!
I'm surprised he didn't use a dovetail joint to join the two halves 😂
Lots of comments here so I bet someone already said this. Wood filler shrinks when the moisture dries out of it. So your print dryer did its job. My tip is to put on more than you need. Don't smooth it when it is wet as it will shrink. Some brands of fillers shrink less than others when drying.
Thanks for the video!
Good point, thanks!
You could place a led under the acrylic rod so i have a nice color
LOVE!!!!!! Not only is all your stuff always super cute, but I love the stuff you say about it while you're narrating!
I’ve been making props for a few years now and have never heard of woodfill. Definitely going to try it out now on some of my 3D Printed props!!
I always was told to use Bondo...I'm going to try Woodfill for my next big print, because the Bondo...is cracking like crazy, eats my sanding blocks, and is impossible to lay thin layers with.
@@NikkiTheOtter I use my fingers to lay it on thinly. I’ve used wood filler a few times now and just don’t like it. XTC-3D plus bondo is my way to go 😊
I bought the 3D Systems Sense 3D Scanner, I've recently been scanning friends heads, printing, moulding, casting and painting them. I sometimes use resin casting in conjunction with my 3d printed parts to create things not possible with just a printer alone. I didn't have a 3d printer a year ago, now I have 2 (and a broken, yet to be fixed Fabrikator Mini V2) Videos like your's have helped me along the way, and enabled me to learn to use things like Fusion 360, so thanks (y)
I love the commitment and production quality in your vids! Great job!
Awww he's really cute. You did an amazing job Devin.
Hmm, I actually don't mind the cloudyness of the varnish. It makes the skin look more realistic imo. Nothing in nature is "perfect".
Every youtube video has an insane amount of sanding and priming. It'd be great if someone just did a ''so you wanna paint something quick as hell? gotcha'' video lol
what a good boy. love his sound effects
I've als painted a model with acrylic paint, i got rid of the paint brush inperfections by using a foam brush, and by fingerpainting some areas. Used high gloss varnish on mine, I didn't got the cloudiness, but it still came out a bit funky looking
10:59 "after a lot of painting and sanding and painting and sanding again, we finally have a clean looking model"
Wood filler: am I joke to you?
Matte clear coat always clouds things up and my colors always get pastel-ized... I just use gloss now for spray. Clear coat also comes in a can, and if i apply the canned version very watered down and light, i acheive a more matte protection!
I was literally painting my 3-D printed flexible Gecko with cheap acrylic paint when coming across this 🤣
Well if you really want to get into it, airbrushing would be the way to go. But in case you want to keep it sort of basic, you can use multiple watered down layers of paint (let them thoroughly dry before painting the next one) and fine sand afterwards. Or do the same as you already did, but fine sand it after a couple of layers.xD
The wood filler suggestion is a great idea, thanks.:)
I didn't consider sanding the paint. Interesting!
@@make.anything To water down the paint try a wet palette!
Love it!! Please make more of these!
this is a peace of art omg
try XTC 3D its an "auto"-leveling 3d print filler. great if you sand a bunch before, then use it, then do a very light finishing sand (with mesh or scotchbrite). also when using this stuff, don't go heavy handed. Makes an amazing finish if done correctly for spray painting after, your models look almost injection modeled after
13:09 you don't need expensive acrylic to paint good, if you have brush strokes you can use 2000-3000 grit sandpaper and lightly sand away the brush layers until smooth and even, it will take time but it means you can continue on a budget
Awwww i want a great wide shark. So cute.
I have bought a vr headset, and I was wandering wich vr sculpting pogram is better: kodon or gravity sketch. Maybe you can make some rejected animals in VR😀
Ooo why didn't I think of that! Great suggestion :)
Oh sorry I forgot to answer your question 😅. I prefer gravity sketch but the two are quite different. Kodon is more similar to sculpting clay, rather than just drawing in 3D space
Make Anything
What do you think of Masterpiece VR?
@@make.anything are there any good PSVR sculpting programs? I don't yet have a Vive.
Aww!❤ He's so cute!
If you add a little water to the acrylics it helps with the streaky brush strokes
Awesome print and paint build!
That doom(1993-1994) imp death sound effect at 6:10 was just lovely for a doom addict like me, thank you good sir
"Woah, okay. Not the cleanest hole but, I think we can make that work."
Phrasing
I LOVE WIDE SHARK WITH ALL MY HEART
Looks good Devon, my granddaughter said it was awrsomeshe loved both sharks.
That is specifically the X-acto #16 scoring blade. It's a great blade that I use for model making because of the size and angle, it really allows you to get into tighter spots and isn't as prone to the tip snapping off like on standard #11.
Practice using "washable" kid's pints that will come off by soaking the figure.
Clear satin or matt overcoat when done.
Then when you have the techniques figured out for getting a good looking figure, start using the acrylics that do not wash off.
Hey nice work.. and you know.. that Varnish actually gave the guy a bit of skin like texture!!! wow! coooool
This gives a lot of great information. I'm going to be painting my first 3d print soon. Thanks.
When you drilling the hole and saw the big gap down the center of the shark, I was thinking that this is going turn out so bad. But it actually turned out really cool! You did a great job painting. I want to go make one now.
I got a similar blade kit, it's amazing for many type of creative projects.
Two things, first the best thing i've used for filling the print lines is fiberglass resin just painted on in a thin layer. For larger gaps I use DAP Kwik Seal, its easy to get perfectly smooth without sanding it.
I love the dubtle sound affects you added here and there 😂
I highly recommend using Rustoleum's sandable filler primer. I find that it produces a lot smoother finish on 3d prints post sanding than other filler primers. Also, I use the same acrylic paint but I water them down a little and apply several layers to achieve a brushstroke-less result.
Looks Great!
16:26 I do something similar when I blend my (digital) artwork. I used to use this program that was for note taking, so I would draw in the pen tool, and use the two colors in highlighter, the, example, black highlighter on the grey section, and a white highlighter on the black (bad example)
You have amazing patience. I would have resculpted the the shark in Oculus Medium and printed that. Really love these animal designs.
love your videos, I never really understood 3d printing but it's very cool :)
Acrylic paint is so good, it's cheaper than something like enamel or oil paints, easy to use, you don't really need some weird toxic solvent to use it, and it looks good, but it doesn't stick to stuff like plastic, although if you do a thick coat it's so satisfying to peel it off
best quality: his freckles
Hes SO CUTE!!! i love this so much!! hes so well done and amazing!! AAAAA
how could i forget...that award winning smile.....
There is one possible major drawback to woodfiller. You cannot wet sand wood filler. It will dissolve away. But if you don't wet sand then it's great
Thanks for the forewarning! Do you think it would be okay under the spray filler?
Use a step bit for drilling plastics. Saw a video recently and it worked a ton better than twist bits. Makes cleaner holes.
Amazing work and great to see a fellow Printer having fun. little pro tip lol put a cable grommet round the base of the clear tube holding it up on the stand then it will look clean and even better IMO
Sup devin just wanted to say I love your videos. just know everybody really enjoys them, I mean it.
For when you tried to dry your Shark in your machine and the crack came back (where the wood filler had it filled in) my best guess is that it wasn't your pieces that shrank. I believe Wood filler is used to fill in wood cracks, because it can move and warp with wood; since wood does shrink and expand on it's own, in certain climates and temperatures. Meaning, heads up, that crack may come back if your piece isnt kept in a controlled temperature environment. Hopefully, this won't be the case. Loved the video still and, regardless of the hurdles, you did an awesome job!
Nice job. I use the same paints. Bought the 36 pack of variety paints for $20 or so Michael's rocks! they usually have decent affordable variety brush packs too. I think it was 20 assorted brushes and a plastic pallet knife for $7.
On sanding, my mom used to manage a small craft store and she brought home a flexible foam sanding pad set that was fantastic for forming to odd shapes and crannies as well as nooks. I keep a small 6" USB desk fan for drying layers faster so I'm not waiting so long between coats.
Oh yeah I've used one of those foam sanding pads before. They're pretty great!
I love him.
Protip: Try diamond or triangular angled indentations on one half the printer can handle making, then reflecting those shapes on the other half to insert into. Makes for 100% perfect alignment, usually.
I use 3DF Zephyr for 3d scanning along with my phone. and it's free :)
Edit: thanks for hearting, I just want to say I love Makers Muse and Make Anything videos!
And I could be wrong but I think you inspired me to get a 3D pen
its soooo cute!!
Great job! Thanks for sharing.
Fun to watch, new to your channel. I really Like the rejected animal idea!
A few tips From a painter.
Thin your paints, with acrylic just a few drops of water or flow medium will help with the brush strokes even with cheap paint.
Look up the dark lining technique it will help the color transitions and making details pop.
The cloudy look to the varnish is usually from too heavy or thick of a layer, from humidity, or from it drying before hitting the model (Usually too cold). Spray lightly from 18 inches away another light coat and it can clear up the varnish, but it can also make it worse if you still have any of the other conditions above.
Looking forward to more!
Awsome vid!
I instinctively blew on my screen trying to dry the paint. XD
You just didn’t tho did you 👏🏻😂
To save lots of time (and dust) when sanding the wood filler, use a wetted tool (palette/putty knife, finger, even paintbrush) on the filler before it starts to skin. You can smooth out an awful lot and save on quite a bit of sanding. You can even make a wash/slurry for light filling of layer lines.
Fantastic!!!
love your work ! I also use Acrylic to color my 3D but it wasn't soft as your so I need too folow you step by step
thank you
Favorite channel!
I've done a lot of painting on my 3d prints. I find it very helpful to use a hairdryer in between coats to speed things along. This is especially helpful when printing on very small things that contain many colors like miniatures for dnd. Just be careful not to overhead the plastic and warp your pieces of course! ;p
So cool!! Once we had this painter spray our metal rails of a staircase with acrylic paint and after 3 days it became as rigid and dense as glass! I wonder how this type of paint is defined/called so I could use it for the inside of 3D printed flutes, normal acrylic paint feels like rubber.
im also painting some mode and dried the wood filler tips and i came our way better thanks
I think that cloudyness actually looks pretty good.
That looks so so cool😄😃
I'm somewhat surprised you don't include a notch for easier sticking together for some reason
You did an amazing job!
I really enjoyed your video and if you are reading my comment I want to wish you a wonderful day!
Nice work painting the model! I will be 3d printing some of my models as well, im just preparing the stage and light exposure and getting the painting materials, i already have the 3d printer. : )
Keep em going more rejected animals. I'd like to see both types of models
my 3-d printer just arrived today so exited
I love your shark. Don't give up and protect your IP.
Dude your awesome, i love watching your Videos
Your Rejected Animals would make great 3D Prints even great low poly prints.
I love this video!
Something I've used to fill gaps like that before are bondo spot putty. It's red, doesn't require any mixing, and sands pretty easily
He mentioned that and said that he found the wood filler better in almost every way.
You’re a good crafter keep crafting
Hey man, do i definitely need to use sandpaper? Cause it us very tricky to sanding figures. Is the ptimer filler enough for the acrylic paint?
