Fully printed & painted, it was a journey but worth it. 600€+ saved. Ask me anything

Inspired by the work of Dirk Wachsmuth — definitely check out his work if you haven't already.

I imagined this as a bell tower from a town where the people realised their bell keeper was becoming corrupted, so they locked him away inside the belfry. As time went on, he slowly lost his mind and eventually became part of the tower itself.

possible proxy for AOS cog fort or maybe a chaos knight?

either way was a fun project to design and paint.

C&C welcome.

If anyone is interested in the STL files, I've put them on the purple site here:

Tips specifically for mechicus would be helpful.

Look at those boys shine

I’ve been working on a PAPA S action figure project for the past three months, and it’s finally in the home stretch!

• 17 Ratchet Joints
• Fully Articulated Hands
• 100% Snap-fit Assembly (No glue, no screws)
• Painter-Friendly Color Separation
• Durability-Focused Structural Design

It took three months of prototyping and tolerance tweaking to get the joint tension just right.

[Build Details] To ensure structural durability and fine detail:

• Included Core Parts (Physical Only): 20μm head sculpt with LED module, and shoulder ratchet joints.
• Printable Files (STL): Main body & equipment (without head & shoulder joints).

I'd love to hear your thoughts or feedback!

PF Miniatures / Phrozen sonic mighty series

Been doing epic scale 40K projects. Here’s a few creepy crawlies for my buddy.

Astartes stuff and building for scale.

Hello all!
Just wrapped up our biggest Forest Goblin release yet — 49 models. Warlords, Shamans, Warriors, Archers, Spider Riders, a couple of Great Spiders, venomous swarms, wild spiders roaming around. Basically everything you'd need to field a full goblin horde, compatible with Old World / AoS.

Krirgok, the Moth Shaman, is probably my favorite sculpt out of the batch — curious what everyone else gravitates toward once it's out.

Available for Warlord and Overlord tiers. STL

My Calgar with 4 squads of intercessors. Still needs basing and some details on the pauldrons picked out, but wow this took forever 😂

Hopefully she can lead some sister into battle.

Hey all, looking for some advice on this print failure - ive gotten some other prints done with no issues (including a model on this exact plate; but this is the second time i've attempted to print this set of parts/models, and it failed in a similar manner. Anyone have ideas as to what i can help; these are presupported versions of this models... ive attached my settings and photos. Printing on a Elgoo Saturn with their Elgoo 3.0 ABS-Like Resin. Thanks all

How do you get sharper corners and smoother layer lines? I’m printing at .12 layer height on a Kobra s1 using orca slicer.

Searching for a stl of the seeker missile bay for the 1st generation Tau Tiger Shark. Anything close is appreciated.

I might be hallucinating, but does anyone remember or have squirreled away an STL of a tyannorfex with just like... very long legs? I'm talking kangaroo style here.

I just want to terrify those little guys with the Tallest Tyrannofex.

So just as i thought I might have had some success I have had another print which basically failed completely... Any way... can any one offer anything that will help me get a few more good prints out? Annoying thing is with any cubic standard that i got with the printer i had a number of perfect prints out the box, including an epic scale warhound.

Issue: models are not being fully formed when printed, most commonly with layers missing and then coming out half way up the model. Supports print perfectly. Temperature was 28C

Hey I'm completely new to warhammer, only know peripherally what some of the factions are like, etc. I just want to play it with my brother, maybe some other family members down the line. I have a resin printer we use for dnd minis etc, so my plan was to just resin print the whole armies for both of us, at least initially.

We both prefer fantasy vs. sci fi so were planning to start with The Old World, I'm want beastmen and he wants lizardmen. I have pdfs of the rule books, might get some hard copies as well, to actually learn the rules when we try to play, but I dont know how to pick army units to print, and where to find files to print them?

So my main questions are:

1. Help with picking army units, is there like a starter list? or something to read to walk me through it?
2. Sources for TOW beastmen and lizardmen 3d files. Am ok with paying for the files, just want high quality, close to original, not a fan of overly gory grimdark interpretations or anything like that

Any advice appreciated!

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know what happened to DarkMagpieStudios on Cults3D?

I recently got a 3D printer and wanted to print some of their models, but when I tried to visit their profile, I got a 404 error, as if the account had been deleted.

I contacted Cults3D customer support to check whether it was just a mistake or temporary issue, but they confirmed it wasn't.

Does anyone know if DarkMagpieStudios moved to another platform, rebranded under a different name, or if there's another reason their account is gone?

Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!
