Hello!
I am writing about DeepL because my English is not very good.
I will be opening an online shop for 3D printing in the tabletop sector in a month.
Would it be possible to work with you?
Best regards
Hello I'm looking for your stl “three Gereations of ZoAnne” to make an alternative part for my Space Hulk game
Do you still have it please?
Thanks
Is cybermech builder kit pre supported? Shows in image but not in info
of course! all dorkfactory models are pre-supported.
I purchased the deathstriders and unless I'm missing something in the download there are no right legs. How can I get the right legs from you?
contact me here: noonancp74@gmail.com
Hi, that's by design. The legs need to be duplicated and mirrored in the slicer program of your choice. It's a common but usually unspoken practice with modular STL kits, sorry for the confusion.
Regarding Deathstriders: First, I love being able to make tainted bot not overly pokey models. Also, all appropriate parts are hollowed with good drain holes. Pre-supports are excellent. But it seems that there are a couple areas for improvement. First, the lower flange on the torso, the part that interferes with the hips is severely undersized. I had to fill 3/16” gaps front and rear with liquid resin because there wasn’t enough for the glue to bond with. The second, when the hips got hollowed out, the resin is pretty thin, definitely the weak link in the model.
Thanks for the review! Really glad to hear you like the supports and the kit. I'm curious, did you use one of the "waist" connector pieces between the hips and torso? I've built a lot of these guys now and it's usually a snug fit. As for the hips: next round of updates I'll give that part some attention.
Ok. So the spacing is a user issue. I didn't use the waist. My apologies. So awesome models. Reinforce the hips and it will get 10 stars in my book.
Hi, I bought Deathstriders from here, and then read on your patreon that tere are some new upgrade parts. Where can I get those?
thanks
Jack
Hi, I'll be updating that bundle very soon! Thanks
So I'll just have to buy second part and it will be ok? ;)
To be crystal clear:
There is one deathstrider bundle.
All platforms will be updated with the latest bundle.
The update is free.
I'm in the process of doing small fixes after a test print, then the update will occur.
Oh, that's even better :) you've just earned yourself a patreon ;)
Bonjour bonjour voila je vous envoie ce message pour vous dire vous magicien de la folie ne peut pas être imprimé avec du pla car sur le logiciel cura cela me dis que l'impression n'es pas étanche
Bonne journée a vous
Oh my, the bases in your basic base pack are very similar to ones I've been hand-carving for years.
I would LOVE to commission additional sizes from you, if you're willing?
Thank you for the reply.
Wow those are some weirdly nice minis.

Hello,
Can you please tell me which is the mini shown in the pic of the Patreon supporter tier ? Helmet, skull face, raised gun in left hand.
Thanks keep it up.
Great minis

Hey! That's one of the Corpse-Composite Shadowhusks. Glad you like the minis, thanks:)

Hello
Just found your stuff on cults . Great work all round.
Do you make 2 handed weapons like carbines + arms etc for the android agents ?
Also do you think they can de downscaled to 18mm ?
Thanks
Thank you! Haven't made any 2-handed stuff for those guys; maybe one day. There are so many angles of arm I bet they could be snipped and glued to other bits after printing...? As for the scaling, that should work on a resin printer. Probably would work on fdm too but they'd likely look a little wonky lol.
@JVR
I like to keep them all at 32mm scale as that's what I test them at. They're designed to fit in with models from various tabletop games that use 28mm or 32mm scale. You'll have to bust out the ole calculator but scaling them should be a breeze in chitubox with the scale menu in the toolbar. Post some pics when they're printed! Would love to see the bigger versions:)
It does thank you… I’ll have to figure out how to scale it up to 54 mm… Shouldn’t be too hard! What about some of your other “humanoid” figures here? All pretty much the same! Would you ever consider scaling them up to 1/35 scale or 54 mm scale?

Hi JVR,
The Oathkeepers are designed at 32mm scale -- meaning the eye level of an average-height human standing upright would be 32mm. Those models should be between 34 and 37 millimetres tall (to the top of the head). Does that answer your question?
Good morning… So my first run of printing the figures I downloaded wasn’t so great… All my fault as I’m brand new with this, and I’m using cheetah box with my Elegoo Mars printer. I bought the oath keeper squad. Can you tell me what scale they are? I wanted to print them in 1/35, for a diorama I’m making… But I kind a need to know what scale they are if I’m going to scale them up. Many thanks, John
Hi tonystrahota88,
I do design for SLA/DLP but I test almost everything I make in FDM (the spiderwitches are the only exception I can think of). I did an fdm test of the void navigator and thought it turned out pretty good! I usually go with a .1mm layerheight printing nice and slow at around 25-30mm/s. I STRONGLY recommend using "support interfaces" -- massive boost in quality if your slicing software has that feature. I've found changing support angle to around 60 improves the end result as well. Hope that's helpful!
Hello,
Wondering if your minis are designed for mostly SLA or FDM printing. In particular looking at the void navigator. Have these been test printed FDM?
Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I added another model "flag_piece_with_hand.stl" let me know if there's any more trouble.
^ I left this as a comment on the design as well, still not exactly sure how messaging works on cults3d. Hopefully you see this.
Hello, I really like your creations. One of the models I downloaded HELPFUL WAR WOMAN WITH IMPORTANT FLAG is missing the hand to hold the flagpole. Am I missing it? Thank you.
Hi there! 👋
I just made an offer of €12 for your Necrostriders model.
I really like your work and would love to add this one to my collection — would you consider accepting my offer?
Thanks a lot and keep up the great designs!
Best,
Patrick
Hello Patrick,
This new "make an offer" feature has caught me (and apparently many other designers) by surprise. I'm going to accept your offer since this is the first one and it's around the price I charge during official sales anyway.
For others seeing this reply in the public inbox here:
I need to consider the "make an offer" button further and can't guarantee it will remain enabled.
To Cults:
A heads up / opt in would have been nice but overall I guess it's not that big of a deal.
