This is where I'm at. I'm very new to 3dprinting and I've really been happy with my ender3. I've been putting money aside and had plans for upgrading parts, but when I look at better machines, the price point is pretty close to the ender3 with upgrades.
Man I have no idea! From the previous comment I thought it made sense. I redid the print yesterday and it printed exactly how it looks in Cura with a top and bottom.
Oh my goodness, why didn't I see that before! Thank you for pointing out something so obvious.
Could try 3D printing. I recently picked up an Ender 3 printer and have been having a lot of fun. I'm in a pretty good spot with a few figures printed and I'm ready to start doing the clean up and polishing type stuff. After I feel like I have a good process I'll start figuring out the best ways to paint.
It's been a fun hobby with a seemingly endless amount of depth, so there's always something to learn or just improve your current process.
The printer I got, plus the filament was around $195 to get started. Budget permitting I think its a fun creative outlet.
