0.25 figure printing help
Hello, I am printing miniatures, i wanna get the best results as possible. 0,25, 0,07 layer height. I would like to enhance details and smoothness…althought the worst are usually parts where supports were? Also tips or pointy things like horns, teeth tend to lose the tip or get ugly…any tips on these??

for cleanup, you can use an Xacto knife (or similar) to clean the leftover supports and very fine sandpaper or file.
