• Premium JPG/JPEG renders (95/100): clean marketing visuals + thumbnails

• 5-second cinematic 360° showcase video: quick visual storytelling for shops/social

• Animated GIF: lightweight preview for listings and messaging

3D PRINT SETTINGS (Practical guidance)

These are general best-practice settings that work well for stylized character minis and desk figures. Your best values can vary based on printer, resin, filament, and scale.

Recommended scale

• Desk figure: 80–120 mm tall

• Mini size: 50–75 mm tall

• Display statue: 150–250 mm tall

FDM (Filament) — beginner-friendly

• Layer height: 0.12–0.20 mm (0.16 mm is a sweet spot)

• Nozzle: 0.4 mm (0.2 mm for extra detail if supported)

• Infill: 10–15% (20% for sturdier big models)

• Walls/perimeters: 2–3

• Supports: “Tree” supports recommended (especially for ears, chin/beard tips)

• Orientation: upright is fine; if ears overhang too much, tilt slightly back (~10–15°)

• Brim: yes (helps stability)

Resin (SLA/DLP) — best detail

• Layer height: 0.03–0.05 mm

• Supports: medium supports under ears, beard tips, and arms

• Orientation: tilt ~20–35° to reduce suction + preserve face detail

• Post: wash + cure per resin brand; light sanding for support marks

Notes for best results

• Big ears & hair tips can be delicate at small scales. If printing mini-size, consider:

  • printing slightly larger, or

  • using resin for sharper detail, or

  • increasing wall thickness in your slicer if needed

• If a model includes a base, printing on the base improves stability.
