I was provided with an upgraded Lychee Slicer account by the developers. They do not require any specific deliverables or scripts, and all opinions shared are my own. I strive to provide honest, objective technical tutorials. Is it possible to achieve elite-level tabletop lethality without the mess of liquid resin? Today, we are continuing our epic 2,000-point proxy army journey by putting my filament hardware to the ultimate test and printing a pack of elite Space Wolves Wolf Guard Head Takers at a microscopic 0.06mm layer height! We are pushing our machines to the limit to prove that you don't need a messy, toxic liquid resin printer to get flawless, high-detail miniatures. But printing thin, delicate weapons like Frost Swords and Axes on an FDM machine comes with its own unique set of challenges. How do you print blades that are razor-thin, free of layer lines, and sturdy enough for the tabletop? In this video, I break down my exact digital pipeline step-by-step using Lychee Slicer and OrcaSlicer to show you how to master weapon orientation to minimize scarring and achieve pro-level prints. We dive into the grimdark lore of the Head Takers, why they are the elite "seek-and-destroy" specialists of the Great Companies, the synergy between their Fenrisian Hunting Wolves, and how Ragnar Blackmane’s tenacity inspires my own workflow. 🛠️ Gear Used in This Video (Affiliate Links) Support the channel at no extra cost to you by using the links below!
