so, I feel bad this will be long (mod you can put it under a cut if needed?), but I'm also neurotic as fuck so whatever. But on the topic of l1l d3v1l, some of their work came across my feed and, for lack of a better term, triggered me hard. Not because of their content/style/whatever at all! But because my god please please please everyone doing 3D printing, cure and wash your prints properly!!!!!!!!! Another Anon recently made a very very good list of recommendations for them for posting. I am going to toss in my hat for some of the finishing processes. They have a very good base for sculpting, they know how to use their program and their style will evolve naturally over time. They're even using references. They're figuring out joints. Faceups also evolve with practice. Everyone starts somewhere, it's all learning, etc, and no I cannot explain why dust and hair on sticky prints made me react this way. Psychoanalyze me in the comments while I offer some tips on curing/finishing.

Put your UV hood on while it's printing, yes even when you're getting in progress pics unless it's like night or whatever. room temp and humidity while I've left the hood off has absolutely messed with my prints, I used to live in Albany in NYS and I think they're in the same state.

Wash your print properly. Take it off the base, rinse it in whatever the fuck it needs to be washed in (alcohol, water, etc), cut the supports (I do sometimes leave some supports in until after curing. YMMV moment), and then wash it again. Get a soft toothbrush. Scrub. SCRUB. Dry it properly with a paper towel, not air dry. If water washed resin still feels a little tacky, you can give it a wipe with some rubbing alcohol too. Try to only mix water washable with water washable and the same for alcohol. Same with brands, but YMMV with that - washing is really important. If you're unsure because it's a thicker piece let it cure for a bit and then check, wipe with a lower alcohol, dry it, cure again.

AND AGAIN. I cannot stress enough how important that after washing, you cure it properly. You don't need the fancy washing/curing stations and what not if you don't have them. Get a $20 amazon nail UV lamp and set it over your prints. Prop it up a little higher if your print is a bit big. Move it around the print or rotate the print every 60s (or however long your longest setting is on it). Sun curing is fine but sometimes it's not strong enough and you'll need to leave prints in the sun for days before they're cured properly. (same with resin eyes, I see the eyes they made are also sticky/cloudy. That's a not curing long enough issue. Cure it. Cure it again longer. let rest. Poke. Sticky? Cure again. sand if needed, gloss with a thin layer of more resin with a flat brush, cure.) After hitting it with a lamp for a while then leave it in the sun if you want for a day or so.

After all that, aside from print mistakes or support bumps, it should be smooth, maybe a bit soft feeling (not when you press on it though, bad cure), sometimes my partner even says "chalky" texture. Stuff shouldn't stick to it so easily!!! If it still is, revisit 1-3!!!!!

You're offering garage kits, but no one wants a half cured sticky mess they'll have to deal with re-curing and washing before they even get to sand. We can SEE the dust and hair and fiber and fingerprints on the prints in your photos. Even if they're clean seeming in person, the photos don't instill confidence at all in the (semi) finished product of your kits or in the ability to get it casted (casters will reject things if they aren't finished properly to a certain point). Faceups will be infinitely easier to do on a smooth non tacky surface (it seems they're mainly using watercolor pencils to do the eyes from the texture, drag and fall off. Sharpen them, don't soak them in water first unless you know how to control the mush and thick layer that will follow. Doing a dry draft helps a lot), the sealer will stick better if you're sealing before hand. Some people don't seal their 3D prints before painting and that's between them and the 3D printing gods. Or if all of this irrelevant and your stuff is actually cured, dried, and not tacky, dust your workspace, put away any wigs and whatnot, and get rubber gloves.

Have Yourself a Merry Indie Christmas Volume III Set for December 1st Release

Having tweeted out plans to release deluxe versions of Have Yourself a Merry Indie Christmas volumes I & II for 2023, I have had a bit of a re-think and decided to abandon that idea and instead press ahead with a third volume.

It just seemed easier to market a separate volume and that makes it easier to raise money for Crisis, which is the point after all. This will be a smaller scale affair, though, with maybe 20-25 tracks rather than 54 this time around. That is going to be reflected in the reduced price of £5.00. The reason for the reduced number of tracks is that it took me a whole year to hone down the hundreds of Xmas songs that I tracked down into the 108 tracks that comprised volumes I & II. This somewhat last-minute decision won't result in a compromise in the quality of the material for a number of reasons though - I received some excellent songs after the deadline for submissions last year which I can now revisit, plus the contacts that I made through 2022 have enabled me to gather in some great new songs in double-quick time. Having had sensational reviews for the first two volumes (see archives), I won't be diluting the standard I have set myself now. It will be the same eclectic blend of Indie, perhaps slanted slightly more in the direction of garage rock/post-punk, with the quality control set to stratospheric. I will start revealing the line-up, one act a day, in November.

The album is set for release on the first bandcamp Friday in December (the 1st) with all monies again going to Crisis at Christmas. I'll be blogging/tweeting about the contributing artists through November.

A reminder that you can still purchase volumes I & II here

Mail day 🥳

I got two books today, a translation of a book by Mick Wall and the biography/memoir of Slash. As of now, I have two books of Guns N' Roses and I still need to buy Steven's one to get the ones complete I wanted.

I also got my order from the official Metallica store. Since customs go insane above $170, I decided to get something small that would save me loads of money. So I got Kirk's 'Portals' album, aswell as the cassette tape of '$5,98 Garage Days Re-Revisited'
