Model created in Blender using the Blosm addon.

Slicing & Printing Details

This model was designed to be printed with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.16mm layer heights.

Try using a 0.2mm nozzle (0.08mm layer heights) for even finer detail!

Note: If roads or small details disappear after slicing, try or lowering the extrusion/line width of external perimeters (outer walls) closer to 0.4mm OR use Arachne walls.

The included “Designer Profile” should have the above settings pre-applied and is ready to slice & print!

Filament used in photos: Sunlu Matte White (miniature), Bambu Matte Charcoal/Black (frame), Sunlu Sky Blue (water)

Framing Details

This model measures almost exactly 7.5x9.5in (242.31mm X 191.08mm) and should fit most 8x10 frames (assuming frame lip/overlap is around a half-inch). Feel free to change the scale/size of the model(s) to meet your needs.

I also included a large printable frame (w/ 1mm water plate) designed to fit my large miniature cities!

Note: This is a “large” miniature and will not fit the smaller ~5x7inch printable frame included with the other miniature cities!

Personally I use these cheap frames from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XVP48KQ

And blue printer paper: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00006IDQT

A frame is not required! This model looks great by itself and can be displayed almost anywhere.
