Rather than spend 30$ for 4 minis regardless.
Print time is overnight anyways, this is a hobby

It's just for fun.
If anyone wants the Knight or defender file, let me know in the PM.
The 10 dollars for the file, The price of filament, the wear and tear on your machine run time, power for the machine to run. All of these are factors that contribute to the price of the minis. I'm just throwing this out there for people checking this out that think it literally takes 10 cents to make a mini. It is fun. I love it as well. There is also a set of really great knight models that Arian Croft makes that are 28mm and print without supports.

These come out beautiful without supports and I do them in about 45 minutes each on my snapmaker. These look more like a templar knight but they are super fun.
Yes, I have found all these knights, but they are detail less. Not as much fun.
Cost of filament is 10c per mini, for a roll of 1KG for 20$.
Machine tears ? never got an issues personally.

Again, I rather pay a little more to get higher and more "looking alike" figures than going with free models as proxy. Not everything is about money ^^
