Same person that Wibbly linked also does a Mk 2 Merkava and a few others. Suspect by the time I get a printer the domestic ones will be sintering metals!

Printable troops, at last!

These need to be scaled down, 110mm height is pretty much there.

Scroll down his page, he has all sorts of WW2 figures there.

Takes around 3 hours per figure though....

Which legs are they? There seem to be several German figure, with 2 Americans and 1 Brit, under the title Falsworth. The latter should be able to rejig as artillery crew. The pose are a trifle odd - is it possible to reposition arms and legs before printing?

At the risk of pushing my luck, should you choose to print several, a variation between say 105 and 116 mm would be great.

They print as shown, though if I knew how to use Blender it would be possible to play around with them. Fortunately, PLA has a very low melting point, so it might be possible to warm up the joints and reposition them. I am printing one as a size test, and will use him as a crash test dummy.

Thinking back to my model soldier days, to move a limb it is better to cut a notch out, rather than bend, otherwise figures tend to look a bit like bendy toys. I have amended my previous post, btw.

Sure I can print them any size, though the first one is coming out a bit rough, will have to wait until he is completed.

M36B1 Turret Interior Parts

Breech cover
Servo cover

Someone asked me for these, the easiest way to get them to him was to add them to my Thingiverse store, so that he could download them and get them printed locally.
