New Things!

First up, I’ve just completed a small restock on Maow Miniatures, and added the following new additions:

Next is something a little new for me. For the first time, I’m selling files for 3D printing. I’ve taken the Star God sculpt and made a bust version. I had to make a few small changes so that he will print without supports on an FDM printer. There are a couple of version of both his… face? and the plinth on which he sits.

I may offer this guy in resin in the future, if there is demand.

Below are some of my test prints of him, at 75% scale. Filaments used are Polyalchemy Elixir Silver, Fillamentum Vertigo Starlight, and Fillamentum Vertigo Galaxy. Printed on my Original Prusa i3 MK3 using the Pretty PLA profile (found here). 0.2mm layers, 3 perimeters, 10% gyroid infill.

Last of all, I made a remix of the 3D Alien Worlds rice bundles to make a terrain piece on a 50mm base, for use in Bushido, with the Rice Bail Barricade special card, upcoming in Risen Sun. This is 3D printed on-demand in light grey PLA.

Star God v3 up for Pre-Order

I’m quite fond of the old Star God figure. It was the first full figure I produced through 3D-printing and resin-casting. It’s gone through a couple of versions already and, as the moulds for v2 were at the end of their life, I decided to take the opportunity to replace the physically-sculpted base with a digital one and a re-print of the components to make them easier to mould & cast. I also very slightly reposed the arms. The master mould has gone well, though highlighted a couple of potential problems, so I’ll be making the production moulds ASAP. I’m opening up pre-orders which I will fulfil starting next week, the 2nd of October.

Along with these pre-orders, I’m releasing a few existing pad designs I’ve brought over to tru/art-scale size. Cogs Veteran join the line-up, and all but the Spiked Veteran design get a Damaged variant. Hopefully, these will be of use!

I teased before the weekend that these would all release at the weekend and this post is going up on Monday. I did make them all available at about 22:00 last night, so technically I didn’t lie!
