Grab your brushes… the painting war has begun 🔥

So many of you are messaging me asking where my old models have gone.

I’m trying to reply to everyone, but I’ll say it here too: unfortunately, several of my models are being removed from the platform.

So my advice is very simple:

if you like a model, download it NOW.

Don’t just add it to your collection, because in a few days it might be too late… and then come the tears, the regrets, and the classic “damn, I should have downloaded it when I had the chance.”

You’ve been warned. The rest is in the hands of the 3D printing gods. 😄

GARA'S WORKSHOP

I am a dad of two beautiful daughters and I enjoy introducing them to the multiverse through 3D printed nerd objects

This is one of the models from my small 3D printing workshop
I enjoy designing, testing, and sharing these figures with those who love to print, paint, and collect miniatures

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

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

Click here to join my Discord group: every now and then we have evening live sessions to talk about 3D printing, projects, tests, and new ideas to develop together

RECOMMENDED PRINT SCALE

I often create test prints at a reduced scale (around 10 cm) to check the model's behavior

But there's something important

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

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

Proof that the model prints correctly is in the actual 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: approximately 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 remove without damaging the model but with calm:
one at a time, slowly, using tweezers and a bit of 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 a single color and paint them after priming using acrylic markers or miniature painting techniques

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

The final result always depends on the personal taste of the one who paints 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 any case, 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 manually refined and tested in FDM printing to ensure real printability

The real print photos are the white or grey single-color ones in the gallery

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

THE PART THAT DECIDES IF YOU PRINT OR CURSE

Plate adhesion

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

I mainly use Bambu filaments and have no problems

If you use a different setup:

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

With these precautions, printing becomes much simpler and more reliable

HEROME'S COLLECTION

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

Be careful 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
