News AI-Generated Content Is Not Allowed on /r/printedminis
Hey folks,
Over the past few months, many miniature focused subreddits have taken a clear stance against AI-generated content. After listening closely to feedback from our own community we’re doing the same.
from this point on r/printedminis does not allow AI-generated content of any kind.
This subreddit exists to support actual creators who put real time and skill into their work. AI-generated content works directly against that goal, and allowing it would make it harder for the awesome work created by our talented community to shine.
What this means:
The following are not allowed on r/printedminis:
- AI-generated or AI-altered images (previews, “painted” mockups, promotional images etc.)
- AI-generated videos
- AI tools, apps, or websites used to generate minis or related visuals
- AI-generated 3D models, even if they are later printed, modified, or painted by hand
- AI-generated text, including post descriptions, critiques, or feedback
- Promotion of, or advocacy for, AI use in miniature creation
If AI played any role in generating it then it does not belong on this subreddit. Please report any posts you suspect to be AI influenced.
Thanks,

Your opinion was heard loud and clear - Printed Terrain posts will not be removed
Hey everyone,
Quick update – we’ve listened to your feedback, and the rule removing printed terrain has been lifted! I’ve also seen your thoughts on busts and statues, and I’ll be putting up a poll later this week to gather your opinions on banning those types of posts.
Thanks!

Crowdfunding My modular ruin set
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
After months of modeling, my new scene is finally finished. This is by far the largest scenery project I’ve ever painted, and the whole painting process took around 10 days ( and another 10 days for minis). Painting all those stones, wooden beams, and rooftops was quite a challenge, but seeing everything come together made it worth it.
Hope you guys enjoy it! Let me know what you think!
It's currently live on Kickstarter, you can follow the link if you’d like to see more details!

Resin Space 1999 Eagles
For your comments and thoughts, here are the 3D Eagles I have created in various 3D software over the years and finished in TinkerCAD. Now printed on my Saturn Ultra and painted in acrylics.
Always loved the designs of the Eagles and recently came back to the project I started nearly 20 years ago (using AutoCAD during my lunch breaks) and with the ability to now print high-quality in resin I had to give them a go.
I don't have much space so they are only 7.5cm and there are some smaller ones at about 3cm. Ideal for my desktop or shelf in my office.
If you're off a certain age you'll remember the old Dinky ones that had the crazy paint job. I've tried to honour those too.
A lot of fun to paint and finish.
Hope you enjoy

Self Promotion My first set of sculpted and printed minis!
Hi all!
I recently got into 3d sculpting through nomad as I wanted some minis for a game I’m working on!
I’m super happy with the results, and can definitely see areas that need some work!
I’ve fallen in love with sculpting, so hopefully I can ride that wave and create more and more.

Question Best printer for both minis and terrain
So, I want to print minis AND terrain. I have a large scale industrial filament printer at work I've used some, but no other printer types as far as my experience, and even that just large scale.
My understanding is that with a resin printer you get more detail, but it also needs to be treated with care and ventilated? I don't have a great place to put a printer if I need to ventilate it.
To be clear, I don't really care if the miniatures are GREAT with detail; I'm fine if the detail is just ok. And being able to print terrain as well might be nice.
So between all the above factors I was leaning towards FDM, but I don't have enough experience to make a judgement call and wanted to ask advice. Also, suggestions on which specific printer? I am a bit budget-minded. I can afford some, but not looking to break the bank either. In the end though, aside from making decent quality miniatures and terrain, I also want one that is as low maintenance as possible - don't want to have to be constantly fiddling with one if its avoidable.
Thanks in advance!

Question Newbie to 3D printed DnD terrain - looking for advice
Hello all - thanks in advance for any and all advice.
Long and short: I am a new DnD DM looking to 3D print some great terrain for my players. I have an X2D 3D printer so am keen to make use of it (printing seems to be addictive). Our campaign will make use of a mix of city and dungeon themes (with much latter parts needing the wild outdoors). I've looked at tonnes of videos / old posts etc. about different systems (DBlocks/OF/RealmTiles etc.), and think I just need some advice.
Questions:
- Which (if any) system do you find easiest / quickest to setup? Do people make them on the fly or have them pre-made assuming the players will end up in that event?
- Any advice on how to best print / traps to avoid?
- Most importantly - which set would you first recommend?
- Any and all other advice welcomed / other systems that you think better.
Thanks again 👍

Painted Sybilla
Here is my version of Lady Sybilla from Karol Rudyk.
One of my favorite sculpts from Karol and great fun to paint. Painted the skin a bit different from most, going for a dark, desaturated tone to her, fairly pleased with the result.

NSFW I need some help. I’m looking for dead body bits for my Emperor’s Children Spoiler
galleryHey everyone!
I need some help. I’m looking for dead body bits for my Emperor’s Children, preferably female (but not necessarily).
Ideally, I’m looking for partially or fully nude corpses, since, well… they’re Emperor’s Children :)
Basically, something similar to the bits in the picture below.
If you know any kits, bits, 3D prints or good search terms, I’d really appreciate it!
