If you play wargames or RPGs, you know the pain of mixed-up factions. 🎭 Printing in different colors solves that instantly! Assign unique colors to each army, guild, or character so there’s no confusion on the battlefield.

⏳ Does curing slow down your workflow? Waiting too long for models to fully cure can be frustrating. But with the right approach, you can speed up the process without sacrificing quality. Let’s explore ways to improve curing efficiency! ⚡ What’s your biggest challenge with curing?

🔬 One of the biggest culprits of lost detail in 3D printing is resin that can’t hold sharp features.
Miniature printing demands a material that preserves every intricate texture, from deep crevices to tiny rivets.
💭 Have you ever switched resins and seen a huge difference?

As you all know, many of our minis have broken MID EPISODE before. Canus' arm, Citras wings and ankle, horns, spell effects, entire heads have snapped off. Since we jumped to the TGM-7 by AmeraLabs, we can say there has been a marketable improvment to the durability to our minis.

🧵 The Secret to Flexible Miniatures: Why It Matters More Than You Think
1/ Miniatures are meant to see action, but their thin swords, fragile wings, and tiny limbs? Not so much. One accidental knock, and—snap! 😩 Nothing ruins a great model faster than a clean break. Do you agree?

If you're seeking that perfect blend of flexibility and strength, TGM-7 is your ally. With a tensile strength of 32.7 MPa, your miniatures can take a hit and keep looking sharp. ⚖️

See how TGM-7 stands up to the test!

AmeraLabs @ameralabs.bsky.social · Jan 29

Think about how you'll use your miniatures. Ask yourself:
❓ Will they be picked up, moved, or dropped?
❓ Are they going to see the rough play of gaming sessions?
❓ Or are they more for admiring, like art pieces?

These questions help you choose the right resin for your project.
