Re: Index of Classic Heroscape .stl files
These are great - THANK YOU!
I am not super familiar with the 3D printing process. For a custom print - could you increase the size? Like say I wanted a Minion of Utgar to be about 50% larger, is that easy to do? I'll drop you a PM (and some Rep) as well. |

Re: Index of Classic Heroscape .stl files
Some files are a lot cleaner than others. Its very easy to scale them up and down in my slicer before printing. I printed out a group of blade gruts that are truly brute gruts. On all these files I have to scale them up 2540% to make them normal size. I scaled the 4 orcs up to 3500%. The base overlaps a normal hex space a little bit, but they turned out fantastic. Im going to paint them up as orc warchiefs or something. The details on the blade gruts is pretty decent. I also printed out an ornak, acolarth, and sir gilbert normal size.
@White Knight
is there any way I can help you with this project. Its really great and would love to try to clean up some of the details on some of the lower poly models. Ive been getting wrecked by my UC lately but plan on posting up some of the cool stuff from this thread that Ive printed.

Which elementals japes?
HeroClix has great substitutes for the Fire ones. The plastic is fairly cheap once you get the printer. |

Re: Index of Classic Heroscape .stl files
I guess my question was more general than I made it...I'm just curious how much a regular medium sized figure would cost to print? Also can you do hallow things as well...like the RttFF trees for instance?

Re: Index of Classic Heroscape .stl files
I used clear PETG for my fire elemental and did a red, orange, and yellow wash. I'm happy with how they turned out. The clear PETG is $28 for 1kg, which is about 100 meters (I haven't done the density calculation). A medium Heroscape figure uses about .5m to 1m of filament. That's about $.14 to $.28 a figure, about a quarter a figure. Machine time is 20 minutes to 4+ hours depending on the desired resolution and complexity. I use fairly fast settings for mine, since I haven't seen much difference with slower settings. So I'm on the lower end of time. But TREX's printer has better resolution so it probably takes longer. There is also some time involved in cleaning off support structures after the print. But the basic material cost is low. |

Re: Index of Classic Heroscape .stl files
This thread has me contemplating getting a 3d printer! How do you think these would turn out with a cheap one like the Ender 3?
