But Gareth Lee wished to make it bigger and scaled the original files to 150%. It took the maker about three months to complete his Varian Wrynn 3D print. So, let us adore his work and hear all the details of how it was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Gareth, your Varian Wrynn 3D print looks fantastic. Your love for details is easily observed. Can you tell us more about yourself and how you became fond of 3D printing?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I became interested in 3D printing around three years ago when watching some videos on YouTube. I still remember seeing some time-lapses and people making practice prints such as household repair brackets and thinking it had to be something I needed to try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being inexperienced and desperate, I bought a Da Vinci 3D printer on sale at my local electronics store. Instantly I was hooked. I was making key chains, and small statues and I began to re-explore my painting technique, as I used to paint ceramic bisques as a kid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As time went on, I bought three other second hand FDM machines and sold the Da Vinci 3D printer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-1024x853.jpg\" alt=\"Varian Wrynn 3D printing figurine\" class=\"wp-image-10527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-860x716.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-680x566.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-500x417.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-400x333.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-250x208.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-200x167.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-100x83.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-76x63.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-2-50x42.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Is it true that you were inspired to download Varian Wrynn STL files and 3D print this WoW character after seeing the model shared by another Gambody enthusiast, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/183216945475583\/permalink\/742374916226447\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Junwon Geem (opens in a new tab)\">Junwon Geem<\/a>, on Facebook? Is this how you choose which model to craft next, or was it a spur-of-the-moment decision?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I saw that Varian Wrynn 3D printing figurine being available for downloading quite a while ago. I was tossing up whether or not to get it, as I knew that this would be a labour of love that would consume a lot of my time and that I had to get right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Junwon Geem and I have very different painting styles, seeing his completed model helped a few puzzle pieces fall together for me in terms of colour scheme and made me start to think that this project was not only doable but worth the time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Do you play World of Warcraft? Which characters from this video game are your favourite? Which ones do you have 3D printed and displayed in your collection?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have played Warcraft since its release in 2004, mainly Alliance faction as their motivations seemed to be more relatable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"527\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-1024x527.jpg\" alt=\"WoW Varian Wrynn 3D printed model\" class=\"wp-image-10529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-768x395.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-860x443.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-680x350.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-500x257.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-400x206.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-250x129.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-200x103.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-100x51.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-76x39.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-3-50x26.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My favourite character has been Varian Wrynn since I realised the quests from classic such as the missing diplomat and the attainment to Onyixia&#8217;s Lair (a cave system located in the southern parts of Dustwallow Marsh) made reference to this elusive king.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love the main characters such as Thrall, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/3d-models\/jaina-proudmoore-wow?refId=geblg_v2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Jaina Proudmoore (opens in a new tab)\">Jaina Proudmoore<\/a>, Arthas both before and after his fall from grace, Bolvar, Tirion, the storage brothers etc. Some notable enemy NPCs such as Edwin VanCleef, Herod, Ragnaros, Rend and Vazruden were also particularly memorable. Right now, I am playing WoW classic and enjoying the nostalgia from when WoW and MMORPGs looked very different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Why did you choose to scale Varian Wrynn 3D printing files to 150%? Do you also have a 100% version 3D printed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started with a 100% print of the Varian Wrynn head and thought that it was too small for such an essential piece to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4.jpg\" alt=\"Varian Wrynn head 3D printed at 100% and 150% scale\" class=\"wp-image-10532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-860x645.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-680x510.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-250x188.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-76x57.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-4-50x38.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I chose the scale to 150%, the perfect testament to the many years playing alliance.

Which 3D printer did you use, settings, filament type (brand), etc.?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used two different 3D printers for this figurine. The base and flag were printed with my Mankati Fullscale XT Plus (UM clon), and the body was done with a Geeetech A10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used Filaform filament for the base and flag in my 3mm machines and a local brand Progressive3D filament for Varian Wrynn 3D printing figurine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Tips on 3D printing Varian Wrynn figurine\" class=\"wp-image-10534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-860x645.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-680x510.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-250x188.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-76x57.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-5-50x38.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, all prints were done to reduce layering effects by orienting them vertically, using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/main-types-3d-printing-supports-tips-for-beginners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"tree supports (opens in a new tab)\">tree supports<\/a> for small overhangs and standard supports for large ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My support roofing needed a little tweaking to come off easily without damaging the print. Adaptive layers are a must for the body parts to ensure there are small layering effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once everything was printed, I glued the base and flag (material section only) together using 2 part Epoxy and filled the gaps. Then I filled the seams (superglue and baking soda for the flag and wood filler for the base), sanded, sprayed filler putty, applied another sanding and finally a black Matt coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"626\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-1024x626.jpg\" alt=\"How to 3D print and paint WoW models Varian Wrynn King\" class=\"wp-image-10536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-768x470.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-860x526.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-680x416.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-500x306.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-400x245.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-250x153.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-200x122.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-100x61.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-76x46.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-6-50x31.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the body pieces, I used a putty spray, then sand followed by a black spray coat for all but the head, which was just putty sprayed, sanded and brush painted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, I used a Matt varnish over the entire piece sparingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6.

Your painting work is fantastic. The Varian Wrynn 3D printed figurine looks alive. Can you tell us more about your painting technique? Do you work with airbrush or regular brushes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following on from my process in which I show depth, I use primarily standard brushes. Make sure they are taklon brushes as any other produce scratchy or blotchy results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have tried my hand at airbrush but feel that the traditional hand brushes work best for me and my propensity to dry brush often. I have to get into airbrushing one day. However, I feel that I need a lot of practice before I have the skill to produce similar quality paintwork when compared to where I am with regular brushes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"819\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-1024x819.jpg\" alt=\"Painting 3D printed model tips and secrets Varian Wrynn\" class=\"wp-image-10540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-860x688.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-680x544.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-500x400.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-400x320.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-250x200.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-200x160.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-100x80.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-76x61.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-8-50x40.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>9.

Vallejo and Citadel are great options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, I would rather spend a bit more and get a larger bottle of artist-grade acrylics (not student grade) such as Jo Sonja and Matisse. They do the job, as long as you make sure they are quite opaque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>10. How did you manage to make Varian Wrynn 3D printed figurine look so real?

I have always loved art, both of my parents painted and drew, so I grew up around it. They always made a big deal of any small artistic milestone I met, which kept me either drawing or painting most of my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I said earlier, before 3D printing was mainstream, I used to paint ceramic bisque, such as dragons, native Americans, animals etc. It was where I learnt that a proper dry brush technique and added depth would let you bring anything 3D to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I still consider myself an amateur and learn something new about painting with every new project I 3D print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>12. How did you achieve the right skin colour while painting Varian Wrynn 3D printed figurine, WoW legend?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Never do a dark coat where you intend to paint light colours.

The gold needed one dry brush coat over the silver base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then on to the browns, greys, reds and blues. These colours needed to be done using opaque paint. Vallejo and Citadel are great, but I prefer Jo Sonja artist paints for pieces this large. I chose three shades of each colour, began with a thick base coat, i.e. dark blue on the flag, dark brown on shoes, dark red on the coat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I then picked a lighter shade of the same colour, and dry brushed it on quite generously followed by a very light drybrush of the lightest shade.

But if you get it right, it looks fantastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"Painting Varian Wrynn 3D printed sword\" class=\"wp-image-10548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-860x516.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-680x408.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-500x300.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-400x240.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-250x150.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-200x120.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-100x60.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-76x46.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-10-50x30.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, for this project, it would probably have been the sword. I had so much fun working with red hues instead of paints to get the gem in the handles looking lifelike and using orange, yellow and white to try to mimic an energy swirl in the hilt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>16. Where do you display your impressive Varian Wrynn 3D print?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Varian Wrynn figurine is displayed on the top of my large-scale gaming PC case. As I am playing a lot of classic WoW recently, it is the perfect thing to complete my gaming experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>17. Which is the next 3D printing project you are planning to make?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am thinking of something Warcraft or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/best-witcher-3d-model-to-print-while-watching-the-witcher-movie-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Witcher related (opens in a new tab)\">Witcher related<\/a>. However, I&#8217;m not entirely sure. Maybe Gambody will surprise me with something too good not to purchase and print right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"948\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-1024x948.jpg\" alt=\"World of Warcraft Varian Wrynn model 3D printed\" class=\"wp-image-10555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-300x278.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-768x711.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-860x796.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-680x630.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-500x463.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-400x370.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-250x231.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-200x185.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-100x93.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-76x70.jpg 76w, https:\/\/www.gambody.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Varian-Wrynn-15-50x46.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Maker: Gareth Lee<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>18. Is there anything else you would like to say to Gambody enthusiasts who are in love with your Varian Wrynn 3D print about this project? Maybe some last advice?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t ever be discouraged by your progress. It is easy to get into a rut and not like your work. But you still have more knowledge today than you had last month as long as you keep trying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always ask questions. Understand how people achieve the results they get. I remember annoyingly asking almost every single question I had. I wished to know how people get the results they did. If they respond then they are the type of person you want to learn from, if they don&#8217;t or get annoyed, then they aren&#8217;t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope that the stunning Varian Wrynn 3D print made by Gareth Lee will motivate you for your next 3D printing deeds.
