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 father of two beautiful daughters and I enjoy introducing them to the multiverse through the nerd objects I 3D print.

This is one of the models from 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 fan of Bambu Lab 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 quality.

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 do 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, besides gaining details, you also gain ease of printing.

My advice:
Scale it up 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 a basic knowledge of slicing is needed.

If you have doubts, feel free to write to me: if I can help, I'm always happy to do so.

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

PRINTING PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTS

Test scale: around 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.

Remove them without damaging the model but calmly:
one by one, 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 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 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 with FDM printing to ensure real printability.

The real print photos are the monochrome white or gray ones in the gallery.

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

THE PART THAT DECIDES IF YOU PRINT OR SWEAR

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 and 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.

THE HEROME 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, you'll end up wanting them all.

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