PRINT PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTING

Test scale: approximately 5 cm

only Bambu Lab PLA Basic white or gray
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 gently 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 might break, and you'll end up crying in front of the printer.

TECHNICAL NOTES (the truth, not poetry)

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

The colored images on the cover are only AI-generated coloring examples to show possible painting styles.

The final result always depends on the personal taste of the one 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 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 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 CURSE

Bed adhesion.

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

I ONLY use Bambu filaments and have no issues.

If you use a different setup:

• first and foremost, focus on bed adhesion
• use dry, quality filament
• keep the build 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

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.
