Bolt Action “Dog Tags”
With our recent Bolt Action attention, and my efforts at painting the figures, I have been pondering ideas for various game aids. I already have easier to read order tokens, movement sticks, and clear area of effect templates. What I have been missing however is Pin markers, and markers for Indirect fire tracking. The default…
Legion Points of Interest
I have a set of basic 3d printed marker “disks” that we have been using for Star Wars Legion since the 2.6 update. These are functional and work – they are highly visible with the green on the white background design. However, they are also just flat tokens, and rather boring. After the first few…

Either the models are the same build, the weapons are similar, or the painting is similar, and when the units get bunched together, it is hard to separate which soldiers go with which squad.

The screen indicated either a TMC overtemp error, or a Crash Detected. In reality, it was neither. Instead, it was…

Up until recently, it has been running very well – solid prints, reliable operation, no major issues. In recent months, I did have an issue with bed adhesion to the removable build…
Wraithbone Alternatives
In an effort to find a more cost-effective base coat paint for use with Contrast paints, we spent some time this weekend finding several similar shades of spray paint to the official Citadel Wraithbone. At this point, I have an official can, and 3 alternatives ranging from 50% to 75% cheaper. Assuming they work and…
