Photon Mono 2 Review: Is it good for Miniatures?

⚠️ Good for Terrain/Large Minis

Solid resolution (30-50um). Great for tabletop standard, vehicles, and terrain.

Introduction

The Anycubic Photon Mono 2 is an ultra-budget option at $149. It’s designed for absolute beginners or as a secondary “grunt work” machine.

Printing Performance

With a 34 micron resolution, it sits in the “Good Standard” category. It won’t rival the 14K machines for crispness, but for printing a D&D encounter’s worth of goblins or generic NPCs, it works perfectly fine. Paint covers most of the minor resolution limits.

Build Quality & Size

Small and lightweight, the 6.6-inch 4K Mono LCD provides 143 x 89 x 165 mm of space. It’s tiny, easy to store, and great for small workspaces.

Final Verdict

The perfect “my first resin printer” for those strictly on a budget, delivering respectable results for gaming.
