Today I proudly celebrate 10 years of 3D modeling free 3D printable minis! Thank you everyone!
Today I proudly celebrate 10 years of 3D modeling, printing & painting D&D minis, all for free and all for the world to enjoy! It all started 10 years ago when I posted on reddit a simple black dragon I put together on Tinkercad that the local library 3D printed for me:
It blew up on reddit so I made another dragon. Then I learned Blender and decided to 3D model the entire Monster Manual. From there this went from a simple hobby to now my full time profession and I'm loving it!
Thank you all for your kind words and support over the years. I was able to set up this successful Patreon, grow a small community, and model over 5000 minis! If you ever need a mini 3D printed for your games chances are I've made it. If you're a paying patron you know where to look in the drives and if you're following me you know all you have to do is google "name of creature mz4250" and you'll see the free link :)
Here my top favorite galleries of my works that I think would set up anyone for their D&D campaign. The free file links are below each image:
I've actually made a variety of other D&D books ready for 3D printing but these are the must haves I feel :)
Today I'm going to celebrate by relaxing, making something fun in 3D, enjoying some take out, and maybe watching some anime with whiskey. Either way I'm celebrating the way I want and its all thanks to you amazing generous people.
Stay awesome friends!

Just joined and have been browsing through your work....have to say, this is a sheer INSANE amount of high quality models. Just got an AnyCubic Resin printer and I can NOT wait to start printing.
Thanks :). Watch out for models made pre 2019 though. I wasn't doing this professionally then and they are rough and FDM focused haha.
Congrats. I feel like you kind of started all this crazy 3d printing minis thing:) OG for sure!! Can't say thank you enough!! We will be here for the next ten:)
Congratulations. When I got my 3d printer and stumbled upon your files it was the greatest day ever and patroning you here has also been equally wonderful. I appreciate all your hard work on so many amazing models. Keep being amazing
Thank you!
I've been with you for the last 4 years. Thank you for what you do for our community! Cheers
Congratulations! I started about 7 years ago with DnD and 3D printing. The first print was a commoner 2. Being a student at that time, your huge shapeways collection was a blessing. Nowadays I rarely print your models, rather watching every new post with a smile thinking: another silly model! A whole set got an update! Awesome!... You and your work are a gift to the 3d printing and DnD community. Thank you and cheers to another 10 years!
Thanks friend I appreciate it :)

Congratulations! I am a fairly new patron but I love your models- I plan to be a patron for a long, long time!
Thank you!
Congratulations for the anniversary! I've been a patreon subscriber for a while but only started 3D printing last December. It's been a serious boon to have quality prints to add to my gaming! Thank you!

I remember seeing the update posts for your Monster Manual project back on imgur years ago. When I finally got a 3d printer last year I searched for them again and was amazed to see how far you've gotten! Couldn't be happier for you 🙂
