RECOMMENDED PRINT SCALE

Perfect for D&D campaigns, wargame armies, heroes, monsters, survivors, and any creature you want to place on the field with a minimum of epic dignity — because even the unluckiest goblin deserves a serious base.

Maximum Print Flexibility – Multi-Scale 3MF Files

The set is designed to easily adapt to different uses. STL files are provided in standard 32mm scale, while 3MF projects are already prepared in multiple sizes, so you can immediately choose the most suitable dimension without going crazy with drunk alchemist calculations.

Scales included:

 32mm – Ideal for infantry, standard characters, adventurers, and tabletop heroes.
40mm – Perfect for elite units, more imposing creatures, or small monsters.

PRINT PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTS

PLA Basic white or grey
Layer height: 0.16 extra fine  
Supports: hybrid tree  
Outer brim: 5 mm  
Object spacing: 0 mm

------------------------------------------------

SUPPORT REMOVAL

The supports are designed to be quite delicate.

They remove without damaging the model but with patience:
one at a time, slowly, using tweezers and a bit of patience.

No need to go Rambo on the supports…  
or something will break and you'll end up crying in front of the printer.

TECHNICAL NOTES (the truth, not poetry)

I prefer to print figures in single color and paint them after priming using acrylic markers or miniature painting techniques.

The colored images on the cover are just AI-generated coloring examples to show possible painting styles.

The final result always depends on the personal taste of the person painting the model. I apologize for some imperfections and slight differences between the real model and the AI model; I still need to perfect the method!!!! In all cases, you have my photos, both with and without supports, as a reference for the printed model!!!

The design originates from an AI generation (Tripo), subsequently refined manually and tested in FDM printing to ensure real printability.

The actual print photos are the monochrome white or grey ones present in the gallery.

THE PART THAT DECIDES IF YOU PRINT OR CURSE

Bed adhesion.

I use CryoGrip Pro Frostbite and the adhesion is so strong that the prints seem to have taken out a mortgage on the bed: they never detach.

I ONLY use Bambu filaments and have no problems.

If you use a different setup:

• first and foremost, focus on bed adhesion  
• use dry, quality filament  
• keep the print bed perfectly clean  
• don't be afraid to use brim or extra supports

With these precautions, printing becomes much simpler and more reliable.

Beware though…

if you start printing them, you'll end up wanting them all.

If you like the model, leave a like, it really helps the project grow.
