For tabletop miniatures I prefer to use a flexible resin to avoid small details breaking off when removing supports or when a mini falls off the table. So far I’ve used Ameralabs TGM-7 but now that my current bottle is almost empty I’m thinking about looking into alternatives. At over 75€ per liter, TGM-7 is really expensive compared to other resins.
Amazon recommended me RESIONE TH72 as an alternative and there are others on the market like Sunlu Standard Plus. So far I couldn’t find a good comparison between them. Do any of you have experience with any of those or other recommendations?
There is definitely a large difference between ABS-like resins and flexible resins. The latter are much closer in consistency to the miniatures you get for example from CMON board games. I have some printed miniatures with swords and spears and I can easily bend those weapons 20-30° without breaking them which in my opinion is a huge plus for things that get handled a lot.
I see, I did not realize the range of different resin materials. I was led to believe most behave pretty similarly.
I’ve never had the privilege of paying a CMON game, but the sets I’ve seen in stores seem so enticing.
I hope you find a resin that is both affordable and meets your needs! Eventually I’ll probably want something more bendy too, once I get better at painting I probably won’t want my guys to break.
