Aren't you usually supposed to paint the print in models like this?

[–] GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.ee 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

supposed to

I don't understand this. Who is supposed to do anything in this hobby? If you wanna print in gray and then paint, go for it. If you wanna print in multicolor, go for it.

Obviously art is art.

They should be purging on infill instead of the poop method

A good painter will always create a better job but that also requires time and talent that you might not have.
