Hi&nbsp;Mátyás Végh,

Thanks! That model took about ~100ml of material. I actually made it hollow inside in zb to conserve material, which helped a lot in savings/time! I have some follow-up post and will continue documenting my work over at my blog here, so check it out!&nbsp; [http://robertvignone.blogspot.com/](http://robertvignone.blogspot.com/)&nbsp;I just finished another print today and will be posting updates on that later.

Oh… and an other one…

This about 100 ml means that this sculpt is full-filled, or is it hollow (so the form is just a thin material form and there is no material in the middle of object) ?

Julien, have you tested any of your Zbrush files in the new update 8.2?

I just tried to look at the files in the preform and it looks like the shifting error visible in the software are gone.

I don’t want to re print the meshes I already printed since it was just some quick mesh ( I am working on a more detailed one and Formlabs still take their time to ship you resin so I need to be sure I have more supply )
