Getting CRISPY Resin Prints for Miniatures

There's a lot of conventional 3D printing wisdom out there that can be very helpful when you're starting out. I know for me it got me off the ground and running, but at a certain point, those helpful hints run their course and it pays to know what you're actually doing. This video is all about having full control over how you 3D print models and gaining confidence that you can get the best quality out of your 3D print.
