Steampunk Gnome Tinkerer 3D printmodel

3D DESIGN CONCEPT

He’s dressed in a sturdy leather apron embellished with brass gears and mechanical widgets, reflecting his passion for invention. The overall design focuses on a whimsical fusion of fantasy and engineering, making it both fun to print and delightful to display.

3D PRINT SETTINGS & TIPS

1. Printer Type: Works well on both FDM and resin printers.
2. Layer Height: For detailed features (like facial hair and gear details), a 0.1 mm layer height is recommended.
3. Supports: Use supports for the arms, under the chin, and any protruding mechanical parts.
4. Infill: 15-20% infill is usually sufficient for stability without wasting filament.
5. Orientation: Position the model upright to preserve detail on the front and reduce support usage.
6. Post-Processing: A gentle sanding or smoothing (especially around the face and gear edges) helps bring out the details. If painting, use a primer and consider metallic or bronze shades for the steampunk elements.

HOW TO USE

• Display Piece: Place it on your shelf, desk, or in your workshop to spark creative inspiration.
• Gaming Miniature: Scale it down for tabletop adventures, or keep it large for a more imposing figure on the board.
• Gift: Perfect for anyone who loves fantasy, steampunk, or unique art pieces.
