3D Printing & Painting Contest - FDM Appreciation Month!
They're tough to master, they always need adjustments, but without the FDM printers we wouldn't be here today. This month for the 3D printing and painting contest lets share our best FDM printed minis! Rules are:
One post per patron from any tier
Only use my files but remixes are welcome
Only one creature though swarms of that one creature is acceptable
Dioramas are welcome.
Post your piece with an image url in the comments below.
Please do not use Instagram as you can't download images from there. Imgur is preferred.
You have until 23:59 25 Sept 2021 to post your piece in the comments below. Then I'll make a poll where you'll decide who made the best piece! Prizes will include:
1st - A custom 3D modeled, printed and painted mini
2nd & 3rd - A custom 3D modeled mini
4th and beyond - Stickers by Jen! (Last month's stickers just went out in the mail today)
With that good luck! I can't wait to see what you guys post!

They dug too greedily, too deep. They awoke something in the dark. A Neothelid! https://imgur.com/a/x18NZVf

https://imgur.com/zr4b43f (full gallery of the mini here https://imgur.com/a/qpEt2iK) With my group moving to a steam punk / max max game set in Chult, I felt this contest was a perfect opportunity for me to make their damaged and decrepit battle-wagon. I used the Avernis Tormentor, but changed out the front blades for a ram prow (using the face of the Chardalyn Dragon, but elongating it and beating it up a bit), removing the pipes from the top so the exhaust comes out of the back end creating a black sludge, changing out the spear with a cannon from the "Elf Artificer with a Shoulder Cannon" and mirroring it onto the other side, and creating a dragon mortar using the cannon from the "Human Cannoneer Artificer" The last thing I did was, I printed the axels and wheels separate, with enough space in the mini so the mini actually rolls.
