Just looking through the November files... will there be updated supported files? Lots of undersupported and unsupported parts. I don't think these were ever testprinted or even run through the Photon File Validator.

Vadoma was hard to print--like others said, she's pretty much covered in supports at the bottom and doesn't really need to be. I scaled her up and those supports were massive :P Just finished printing Riana and had the same thing kind of...too many thick supports that overlap and build scaffolds on each other making the support solid near the back and base where the model is tilted, but they're hard to remove without causing damage to the model. So far I've had to do the hot water bath AND take clippers to the supports all over the place to get them removed enough to get the clippers in close enough to the model to clip the supports off. Maybe going a little lighter on the heavies and relying on some med/lights, bringing them a little bit further away from the model itself, and making some of the connection points that touch the model a little bit longer?
