HERO HAMMER SPACE DWARF STEAMPUNK VERSION

GARA'S WORKSHOP

I am a father of two beautiful daughters and I enjoy letting them discover the multiverse through 3D printed nerd objects

This is one of the models that came out of my small 3D printing workshop
I enjoy designing, testing, and sharing these figures with those who love printing, painting, and collecting miniatures

I am a big Bambu Lab fan and all my prints are mainly made with P2S and A1 mini

Before publishing a model I always do several test prints to check stability, supports, and general yield

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

RECOMMENDED PRINT SCALE

I often make test prints on a reduced scale (about 5 cm) to check the model's behavior

But there is one important thing

If you print it larger, around 15 cm, in addition to gaining details you also gain ease of printing

My advice:
enlarge it as much as you want, but add some extra supports where needed

Proof that the model prints correctly is in the real photos in the post

Only basic slicing knowledge is needed

If you have doubts, feel free to write to me: if I can help, I always do so willingly

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

PRINT PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTS

Test scale: about 5 cm

PLA Basic white
Layer height: 0.16 extra fine
Supports: hybrid tree
Outer brim: 10 mm
Object spacing: 0 mm

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

SUPPORT REMOVAL

The supports are designed to be quite delicate

They are removed without damaging the model but calmly:
one at a time, slowly, using tweezers and a little patience

No need to go Rambo on the supports
otherwise something breaks and you end up crying in front of the printer

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

TECHNICAL NOTES (the truth, not poetry)

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

The colored images in the cover are just examples of coloring generated with AI 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 originated from an AI generation (Tripo), then manually refined and tested in FDM printing to ensure real printability

The real photos of the print are the white or grey single-color 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 mainly use Bambu filaments and have no problems

If you use a different setup:

• first and foremost focus on bed adhesion
• use dry and quality filament
• keep the bed perfectly clean
• do not be afraid to use brim or extra supports

With these precautions, printing is much simpler and more reliable

GARA'S COLLECTION

If you like this model you can find all the other figures in the collection here:

But be careful

if you start printing them then you will end up wanting them all

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