Online services for designing your miniatures

Dalibor Čavić, 31nd August 2023

In my travels through the endless Internet, I came across several sites for creating miniatures. And some of them came across me as well (via Facebook ads). Considering that I am currently in the Star Wars phase, I tried two such sites where I successfully created several characters from this famous franchise.

These are Eldritch Foundry and TitanCraft and they are primarily intended for creating D'n'D miniatures, but they have lightsaber options so they can be used for SW as well. Also worth mentioning is the Hero Forge, which I haven't tried because I haven't found the option to add a lightsaber.

I will not explain the character creation process in particular, because the matter is quite intuitive and clear. Each of these two sites has a handful of options such as body, head, clothing, items, base, pose, etc. Almost every one has sub-options, so the combinations are practically endless. I think the figure can be created and purchased without registration, but I definitely recommend registering - it's fast and free. Registration allows you to create a base of characters that do not have to be purchased, i.e. that can be saved for later and subsequently refined. Even after purchase. The problem is that if you want to move your character's little finger after purchase, it is a new figure that has to be paid for (Eldritch Foundry). For a 3d printed figure this is as clear as "good day", but it is also true for STLs. And now I have practically revealed to you that you can download your creations on both sites as STL or order as a 3d printed miniature.

In the rest of this article, I will list some good and bad sides of each site. I repeat, I am writing from the point of view of someone who is interested in Star Wars. Fans of D'n'D, fantasy, sci-fi, and even steampunk will find more for themselves. I also haven't spent much time trying out these two creators. This means that some of my criticisms may not be appropriate - maybe I just haven't learned how to do something.

Eldritch Foundry

There are definitely more options and sub-options. In addition to the humanoid, I also managed to create a character of the Zabrak type (Darth Maul). From the lightsaber, there is a regular, dual, t-hilt guard (Kylo Ren) and something I would call pulsating while they called it "unstable beam".

If you don't like it, you don't have to put together characters from scratch, there are ready-made ones divided into groups such as casters, fighters, cyberpunk, etc. If you still decide on your character, and you don't want to deal with every detail, there are outfits for scourers, warriors , monks, etc. There are also predefined poses (cast, defend, duel, mount) that you can modify yourself if you want.

I'm not sure what scale they come in (by default these characters). However, there is a scaling option with a ruler, so you will easily adjust the scale of the figure according to your needs. And if you take STL, you will be able to additionally correct it in the slicer.

A bunch of options can be turned off. Don't want your character to have hair? No problem, turn off the currently active hair option and you get a character without hair. However, I have not found that the bases can be turned off. The issue has been resolved so that when you purchase the STL you will receive 3 files. One is a figure with a base, the other is the figure itself, and the third is the base itself. But this is not clear until you buy the first STL from this site. Even customer support confuses you. To my inquiry about the separation of the bases, I received the answer that it is impossible, even though the purchased STL refutes them.

Eldritch Foundry is slightly more expensive than its competitor, which will be described below. The 3d printed figure costs a whopping $25 (I didn't check how much shipping is), while the STL price is $5. However, they recently started a promotional campaign, so many YouTube content creators give a code for a 15% discount. Another disadvantage is that their conversion of US dollars to euros is 1:1 (the conversion rate at the time of writing the article is $1 = €0.91). But not to end with the negative sides, there are monthly ($15/month) and annual options ($10/month) with the possibility of unlimited download of your creations, which is great for those who need a lot of characters and who print a lot.

TitanCraft

In principle, both described sites are very similar, but there are several differences. The TitanCraft service offers slightly fewer options and sub-options than its predecessor, but this number is still enough for a huge amount of creations. It seems slightly less inspected and the sculpts are of lower quality. However, these differences compared to Eldritch Foundry are measured in shades. Be sure to register to save your creations, but also for one detail that will be described in the finance section.

I personally like using this site because the lightsaber they offer is much more realistically proportioned (the one on EF seems too thick although the difference is not as obvious when the figures are printed). Unfortunately, I was only able to find one type of lightsaber (eg no double bladed).

What's great about TitanCraft is about to be described. 3d prints are cheaper than EF ($15), while the STL download is free. What's the problem? Well, there is. Items cost (usually $0.75 per item). Of course, some items are also free, so you can put together a character that will be free to download. I managed to assemble characters for 2-3$. It's a great thing that once an item is purchased, it remains yours on your profile, i.e. you can use it for free for the next character. That's why I mentioned above that it's good to register (although I'm not sure if shopping can even go without registration). This is a great thing if, for example, you want to change the pose of the same character. Or, for example, you can use a breastplate purchased once on another character for free.

There is no subscription like EF, but for $360 you can buy a commercial license that includes free access to all items and permission to sell prints. If you subscribe to the newsletter during registration, you will also receive a one-time coupon for a 10% discount. Unfortunately, I didn't find an option to buy items without using them and put them in one of my libraries, but they are bought when downloading the STL of the character you created.

I note once again that the article presents my views and my (modest) experience with these two sites. This means that some options may exist, but I have not been able to discover them.

    In the next two articles I will cover the making of the Alps diorama. The main “actor” of the diorama is a 1/87 scale oldtimer bus. In addition to it, the package also included a few figures (but more about them in another article).

    Click for enlarged picture

    The idea of the diorama is that the bus stopped at a rest stop somewhere in the Alpine serpentines and the crew of passengers got out to enjoy the view. To get the height, I used 5 cm thick polystyrene. In two layers (with the second layer just being the background).

    After drawing the road, positioning the elements on the base, I cut the elements and got something close to the final relief look.

    I rearranged the elements in the diorama to check if everything matched the idea.

    The next step was to imprint the stone texture into the Styrofoam rocks. I used pieces of tree bark to imprint them.

    Then I mixed in a thick mixture of modeling plaster to add to the embossed texture and to protect the soft Styrofoam a bit.

    Once the plaster had dried, I started painting. First I painted everything in a gray base color. Then I added darker shades of gray, black, and brown. The colors I used were very diluted so that they would blend more easily on the surface. When I was done with the darker layers and they were dry, I repeated the same with the lighter tones (gray and beige). This time, the color was not as diluted.

    The last step was to add asphalt to the road. I used the effect from Ammo.

    Kroz naredna dva članka obradit ću izradu diorame Alpi. Glavni “akter” diorame je oldtimer autobus u mjerilu 1/87. Pored njega u paketu došla je i nekolicina figura (ali o njima više u drugom članku).

    Click for enlarged picture

    Ideja diorame jest da je autobus stao na ugibalištu negdje u serpentinama Alpi i da je ekipa putnika izašla van uživati u pogledu. Kako bih dobio visinu, koristio sam stirodur debljine 5 cm. U dva sloja (s tim da je drugi sloj samo pozadina).

    Click for enlarged picture

    Nakon iscrtavanja ceste, pozicioniranja elemenata na podlogu, izrezao sam elemente i dobio nešto što je blizu konačnog izgleda reljefa.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Ponovno sam posložio elemente po diorami da provjerim da li sve odgovara zamišljenom.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Click for enlarged picture

    Sljedeći korak bio je utisnuti teksturu kamena u stirodurne stjene. Za utiskivanje sam koristio komadiće kore drveta.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Zatim sam umješao gustu smjestu modelarskog gipsa da dodam na utisnutu teksturu i da pomalo zaštitim mekani stirodur.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Click for enlarged picture

    Click for enlarged picture

    Kad se gips osušio, krenuo sam sa bojanjem. Prvo sam sve obojao u sivu temeljnu boju. A zatim dodavao tamnije tonove sive, crne i smeđe. Boje koje sam koristio su bile jako razvodnjene da bi se lakše miješale na samoj podlozi. Kad sam završio sa tamnijim slojevima te kad su se oni osušili, isto sam ponovio sa svijetlijim tonovima (sive i bež). Ovaj puta, boja nije bila toliko razvodnjena.

    Zadnji korak bilo je dodavanje asfalta na cestu. Koristio sam efekt od Ammoa.

    Construction:

    I used 1 mm thick balsa. I used a balsa cutter to cut the beams to 4 mm thick and cut them to 68 mm long (dimensions of the floorboards in M 1:35). I sanded the edges and placed them on a 2 mm thick balsa base. I glued everything together on a wooden base from swood.si .

    Painting:

    First I applied Sephia Wash, then sanded a little. Then I filled the cracks with Agrax Earthshade and stained the spots a little. Sanded a little harder and then repeated the Sephia Wash. When it was dry, I used a fine sanding sponge in a few places to simulate wear.

    Izrada:

    Koristio sam balzu 1 mm debljine. Balsa cutterom izvukao grede na 4 mm debljine i narezao na 68 mm duljine (dimenzije dasaka za pod u M 1:35). Pošmirglao rubove i posložio na podlogu balze od 2 mm debljine. Sve zajedno zaljepio na drvenu bazu od swood.si .

    Bojanje:

    Prvo sam stavio Sephia Wash, pa malo pošmirglao. Zatim Agrax Earthshade-om ispunio pukotine i malo umrljao fleke. Pošmirglao malo jače i onda ponovio Sephia Wash. Kad se posušilo fina brusna spuzvica na nekoliko mjesta da simulira izlizanost.

    During this year's Interliber, the author of the books about the Big Panda and the Tiny Dragon, James Norbury, held several different events and meetings with readers. On Friday, November 15, I had the opportunity to participate in a workshop on drawing characters from his books. Since James is an illustrator and his works include abstract landscapes, fantasy art, SF and cyberpunk comics, drawings and graphics, it was interesting for me to see how the panda and dragon characters are created in the technique of Japanese Zen painters.

    Click for enlarged picture

    James drew with a felt-tip pen and explained the structure of the characters and their characteristics. For example, the dragon has no eyebrows, so the expression of emotions is partially limited to a couple of eye shapes and hand gestures. While the panda rarely has a mouth in his drawings, so his expression of emotions is also sparse. However, it is precisely through the position of the body, the relationship between the characters, and the text below the picture that James's books convey the story and thoughts of a Buddhist view of life.

    Click for enlarged picture

    One of the messages is that not everything needs to be perfect, both in drawing and in life. He is not satisfied with some of the drawings that James made and published in the book, but as he himself says, if he had waited to make them perfect, he would never have published the book. You start with what you have and improve along the way. A philosophy that we often apply with our figures, dioramas and models.

    Click for enlarged picture

    I enjoyed copying and learning to draw the characters and tried my hand at making a few frames. At first the panda looked more like a Teddy bear, but with practice it took on a panda-like appearance and body position.

    I recommend that anyone who has not yet read James Norbury's books find them and read them. They are quick to read, but can leave a long-lasting impression on your mind.

    Tijekom ovogodnišnjeg Interlibera autor knjiga o Velikom pandi i sićušnom zmaju James Norbury, održao je nekoliko različitih događanja i susreta s čitateljima. U petak 15. studenog imao sam priliku sudjelovati na radionici crtanja likova iz njegovih knjiga. S obzirom da je James ilustrator i njegova djela uključuju apstraktne pejzaže, fantasy art, SF i cyberpunk stripove, crteže i grafike, bilo mi je zanimljivo vidjeti kako nastaju likovi pande i zmaja u tehnici japanskih zen slikara.

    Click for enlarged picture

    James je crtao flomasterom i objašnjavao strukturu likova i njihove osobine. Npr. zmaj nema obrve pa je prikazivanje emocija djelomično ograničeno na par oblika očiju i gestikulacije rukama. Dok panda rijetko kad ima usta na crtežima, pa je i njegovo prikazivanje emocija oskudno. No upravo položajem tijela, međuodnosom likova i tekstom ispod slike Jamesove knjige prenose priču i misli budističkog pogleda na život.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Jedna od poruka je i da ne treba sve biti savršeno, kako na crtežu, tako i u životu. S nekim crtežima koje je James napravio i objavio u knjizi nije zadovoljan, no kako i sam kaže da je čekao da ih napravi savršeno ne bi nikada objavio knjigu. Kreneš s onim što imaš i putem se usavršavaš. Filozofija koju često primjenjujemo i mi sa svojim figurama, dioramama i modelima.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Uživao sam kopirajući i učeći crtati likove i okušao se u izradi par okvira. U početku je panda više sličila na Teddy beara, no s vježbom je dobila pandasti izgled i položaj tijela.

    Click for enlarged picture

    Svima koji se još nisu upoznali s knjigama Jamesa Norbury preporučam da ih pronađu i pročitaju. Brzo se čitaju, no mogu ostaviti dugi trag u promišljanjima.

    After arriving, registering and placing works in the appropriate categories, the most important thing was to meet again and talk with colleagues from other cities and countries such as Slovenia and Italy.

    Also a real refreshment is the discovery of the (so far the only) manufacturer of real wooden bases and plinths in these areas - swood.si!

    A little after 11:00, it was time to open the even officially and inspect the exhibits.

    Given that, after several years of ugly weather, this weekend was sunny, we decided to use that time for a walk in beautiful Ljubljana.

    Kruno: "This year, Slovenian Nationals were also an opportunity to see new and interesting works by colleagues from Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, Austria and other countries. An opportunity to encourage your own creativity and ideas, to admire the craftsmanship, effort and skill of people with whom you share similar interests. The day was beautiful, so the walk in Ljubljana was quite legal and filled the impression of this year's Championship. Marko and Vanja made sure that some "precious" metal was attached to Agram's name, so I was carefree and enjoyed the nice trip."

    Nakon dolaska, registracije i postavljanja radova u odgovarajuće kategorije, najbitnije je bilo ponovno se susresti i popričati sa kolegama iz drugih gradova i država poput Slovenije te Italije.

    Nešto iza 11h došlo je vrijeme za otvorenje susreta i pregled radova.

    S obzirom da je, nakon nekoliko godina ružnog vremena, ovaj vikend bio obasjan suncem, odlučili smo iskoristiti to vrijeme za šetnju predivnom Ljubljanom.

    Kruno: “I ove godine je DPS bio prilika za pogledati nove i zanimljive radove kolege iz Slovenije, Hrvatske, Italije, Austrije i drugih zemalja. Prilika za potaknuti vlastitu kreativnost i ideje, diviti se umješnosti, uloženom trudu i vještini ljudi s kojim dijeliš slične interese. Dan je bio lijep, pa je i šetnja Ljubljanom sasvim dobro legala i popunila dojam ovogodišnjeg Prvenstva. Marko i Vanja su se pobrinuli da se i nešto "plemenitog" metala zakači uz Agramovo ime, pa sam ja bezbrižno uživao u lijepom izletu.“
