Description

Meet the Forgefolk Guardians — a set of stout fantasy characters designed with big readable silhouettes, heroic proportions, and high-poly surface detail that looks great both on-screen and in real prints.

Each character has a distinct identity for storytelling and display:

• Gearbeard (Steampunk Gnome): workshop goggles, brass/steel vibe

3D PRINT SETTINGS

Recommended scale

• Mini (tabletop): 45–60 mm tall

• Display figure: 100–180 mm tall

• Desk statue: 180–250 mm tall

Bigger prints show off armor and beard detail best.

Best results: Resin (SLA/MSLA)

Why: crisp detail on beards, belts, rivets, facial features.

Suggested resin settings (starting point):

• Layer height: 0.03–0.05 mm

• Supports: light/medium, more support under beard tips, elbows, belt edges

• Orientation: tilt 20–35° backward or sideways to reduce suction and preserve face detail

• Hollowing (large prints): optional; add 2–3 mm wall + 2 drain holes

Post-processing tips:

• Wash, fully cure, then lightly sand support marks

• Prime with a thin coat for best paint adhesion

FDM printing (PLA/PETG) – Totally doable

Why: strong, affordable, big desk-size prints look awesome.

Suggested FDM settings (starting point):

• Nozzle: 0.4 mm (0.2 mm for extra detail if you have patience)

• Layer height: 0.12–0.20 mm (0.16 is a nice balance)

• Walls/perimeters: 3–4

• Top/bottom layers: 4–6

• Infill: 10–18% (gyroid/grid) for minis; 15–25% for larger statues

• Supports: “Tree supports” recommended; focus under beard, arms, shoulder armor, crown/horns

• Orientation: upright usually works; slight tilt can reduce support marks on the face

FDM finishing tips:

• Quick sanding + filler primer makes the sculpt look “collector-grade”

• Dry brush on armor edges makes detail pop even before full paint

Support placement advice (Quick checklist)

You’ll usually need supports here:

• underside of beard points

• under forearms/hands

• under shoulder plates

• around crown/horn overhangs

• belt ornaments or hanging cloth tabs

Try to keep supports off the face whenever possible.

Painting & use tips

• Prime first (gray/black/white depending on your style)

• Wash + dry brush works great on beards, armor, and belts

• These models are excellent for:

  • tabletop campaigns (NPCs, kings, blacksmiths, berserkers)

  • display collections

  • kitbashing scenes (forge, tavern, battlefield)
