Beginner Resin printer help

[NewSithOrder]

Hello,

I recently purchased the Anycubic Photon resin printer to mostly print tabletop miniatures. When the print finished, the arms and the spear they were holding were completely flat. Is there a setting in the slicing software I am missing that'll fix this issue? I have included pictures of them below.

Thanks in advance!

not used a resin slicer - do you get a print previw ? if so check it's not the model that's the problem rather than the printer.

You need to use supports! Those areas look as if they were unsupported, which means they would not lift off the bed until the print reached the arm-pit area, which is why they look flat. Since they didn't peel off the bed, every slice of the spear printed on top of itself.

My suggestion: use Chitubox, and watch this guys excellent videos on how to do supports:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR-0tbBbyXk&t=657s
