    I'm friends with all the people I support on Patreon, and I've asked them if they get a bigger cut from Patreon or Tribes. They told me that its nearly the same after fees and tax, but Patreon pays slightly better. So if I can send just a few more cents to the artist over the company, I'm going to support the artist.

    • @Grimcull

    The reason I prefer Patreon over tribes, is that 99% of MMF's website is advertising or trying to sell me models. I only use it under objects shared with me. I feel like I'm getting constantly advertised to and that gets extremely annoying.

    Because Tribes is goddamn annoying to navigate. I'll get an email saying "a new update from your creator is available!" No link to the post from the email (like Patreon does), have to go to the main page, inbox, find that same notification in the inbox, click it, then go to the creator's page and scroll down to the update. Oh and then half the time it asks me to sign in again when I try to access the locked post and do it all over. Versus one click from an email in Patreon. MMF is a great resource but a pain in the ass to actually use.

    It could be the $25 monthly fee..its nothing to larger studios pumping out volume like crazy, but for smaller creators its just a tax and it could be a loser.

    My main gripe with Tribes is there's no "download everything from this month" button. This is why most Patreons still also offer a Google Drive download link for convenience. I was late grabbing Den of Imagination one month and it took forever to download them one by one.

    Hi there! Nice info and pretty much to the point. However, I recently purchased a Uniformation GK2 resin 3d printer, since I would really like to get more into that hobby and since the concept of 3d printing is pretty much relevnt in some sense to my profession, so I would really like to test out in practice what is possible and get some more miniatures to paint along the way. By the way, do you have any default settings/parameters to begin with? I will slice with Lychee only (for now) and as for the resin, I am thinking of starting with the Uniformation, the Phrozen 8k and the Wargamer, and decide what suits me best for each purpose. Please let me know about it since I am completely new to 3d printing and would really appreciate some specific advice. Thanks in advance!

I was told that the more stls you have in your account the slower it goes. Well last month I broke 6000 and baby she's slow. Great idea that could have been something fun.

    BUT I am subscribed to LOOT studios monthly fantasy miniatures and would LOVE to get some printed in 75mm. But over here in Germany I can't find a printshop that offers a printing service. LOOT themselves are OK with subscribers getting prints in commission. But I just can't find a shop. And as far as I understand Only-Games, I would need to become a creator? But I don't have the rights to the STLs (obviously), so they cannot sell them.

Some of the creators I subscribe to on Patreon do not deliver via MMF, either. I have subscribed to some Tribes but I feel sort of locked in to Patreon as my one stop shop for subscriptions. Honestly, if the creators I am subscribed to on Patreon would offer a seamless migration to Tribes with me keeping my benefits (One Page Rules, I'm looking at you) I would do it in a heartbeat because it would be easier to have all of my subscriptions held on MMF and all billing through MMF.
