6mm Napoleonic 3D printed figures
« on: 21 July 2021, 06:23:47 PM »
Turner Miniatures has recently released the Europe Asunder range. There a several sets of STL files, enabling figures to be 3D printed from 6mm to 28mm sizes. The sets cover multiple nations and periods within the Napoleonic era. The figures are fabulous. Here is a selection of 4 figures, printed as 6mm. From left to right (front), the figures are: Prussian grenadier; French infantry; Russian infantry; and Austrian sapper:





The figures are printed using a Form 3 resin printer with 25 micron layers. There is no discernible layering effect.

Looks rather nice, especially once based up.  :)
Unfortunately I’m not into 3D printing, but the better for anyone who is.

Hmmm, impressive, but the Form 3 is a relatively expensive piece of kit. Any idea how they fare on the cheaper printers (that the average enthusiast is more likely to have) like the Anycubic or Elegoo models?

The new resin printers are just as good. I have seen examples printed on an Elegoo; they are just as impressive.

They look lovely. Does anyone know of a printing provider who can print these out?

I have to say the printing is very nice but the painting is fantastic.

Thank you. Henry mentions a printing service option here:

It would be worth contacting him.

The buildings are from TimeCast.
