1/5 A new art book is ready. I don't know why I craft them nor how to explain what I do. It's an intuitive way of working with colours, textures, mixed media and collage, for seeing, touching, and more. A very #meditative work.
This one was the attempt to find something beautiful in our maize #monocultures that I detest.
Just browse my book here.

I'll tell you what is a really neat map trick (albeit, expensive). If you can find someone with a color plotter, you can take and print a topo map to Tyvek, and convert that Tyvek to an extremely lightweight ground sheet. You then have a combo LARGE SCALE map of where you are going plus a ground sheet, all wrapped up in one. Tyvek is printable, and if you physically roll it a lot (some people throw it through a washer or tumble through a dryer on air setting with shoes or something) it becomes soft like cloth. I heard (fourthhand) this may be used in the US military, in Special Ops or other applications.

Обычно это российские вендоры вроде НИТ и подобных.
Изредка если в приоритете цвет - заказываю у тех, у кого есть конкретный цвет. Например, рубиновый или жёлтый флюоресцентный. И это обычно по килограмму и в катушках.
Я достаточно быстро понял, что дрочить на филамент как минимум в моих юзкейсах нет никакого смысла.
Я в итоге подобрав под себя профиль филамента (температуры, ретракт, etc) имею результат мало отличимый по качеству от филаментов eSun и ко, которые стоят в два раза дороже.
Все фоточки ровных печатей в тредах где кто-то страдал с другим принтером сделаны филаментом за 600-800 руб/кг с Ozon.
Пример того, что недавно заказал и ещё не пробовал:

Пример того, что заказал повторно для того чтобы печатать красивенькие полупрозрачные корпусы для железок:

Чтобы проще было
понять степень того насколько я не заморачиваюсь, я печатал винты и гайки M3 таким дешёвым филаментом.
Our customers are the best! How can you add anything to a review this thoughtful and generous?
Zum ersten Mal versucht, einen Stapel gleicher Bilder zu drucken.
Ich denke, ich habe es mir schwerer gemacht als nötig. Aber es hat großen Spaß gemacht.
Wenn ihr Tipps habt für solche Motive, gerne her damit!

I have always been fascinated by print shops, the #printing process, #typesetting and the machines behind these processes... And that also applies to the subject of color management.
This is a really exciting short documentary about #Pantone.
New shirt just arrived.
