The Bard - Tale Spinner of the Realm

🎵 The Bard - Tale Spinner of the Realm (Classic Series)

"Every great adventure needs a witness, and every hero needs a song. The Bard doesn't just fight with steel; he inspires with melodies that can shake the foundations of a dungeon."

Add charm and character to your adventuring party with the Bard. This highly detailed 32mm miniature is part of the Classic Series, designed to fit perfectly alongside the Battle Cleric and the Elven Ranger.

📏 Design & Scale

• Scale: 32mm Heroic. The Bard stands approximately 35-36mm tall including his feathered traveler's hat.
• Scenic Base: Integrated 32mm round base featuring a tavern floor texture, a wooden stool, and a fallen tankard.
• Items: Equipped with a solid-bodied lute (designed for FDM durability) and a traveler's cloak.

The Bard is the soul of any group. Don't forget to grab the Battle Cleric, Human Rogue, and Elder Wizard from my profile to finish your 32mm "Classic Series" collection!

⚙️ Technical Print Settings

• Layer Height: 0.08mm (Recommended for the wood grain on the lute and fabric folds).
• Nozzle: 0.4mm.
• Supports: Tree Supports (Customized in the profile file).

🛠️ Post-Processing & Support Tip

The model prints very cleanly, and the custom tree supports are designed to break away without risking damage to the instrument or hat.

• Area of Attention: The most "stubborn" supports are located in the tight space between the wooden stool and the Bard's legs.
• Extraction: Use a metal hook tool (as seen in the Cleric post-processing photos) or a toothpick to carefully extract these lower supports. No fragile parts are at risk, but a bit of patience is needed for a perfect finish in that specific gap.

Technical & Creative Note: This design is based on an AI generation (Tripo) that I have manually refined and tested on FDM prints to ensure printability and quality. The featured photo is of the actual physical print. I’ve included AI-colored renders only as a visual reference for those who wish to paint the miniature.

🛠️ Support the Process!

💡 What you see is what you get: Unlike many profiles that only upload digital renders of unprintable models, every single design here is fully test-printed, refined in Blender/Meshmixer, and optimized for FDM before release.

I spend hours tweaking geometries, custom supports, and wasting my own filament so that you can enjoy a flawless, hassle-free print on your first try.

If my test-printing hours saved your time and filament, feel free to keep my printers running and fuel the next project! Any support is greatly appreciated: paypal.me/mjrko84
