Hi Guys last year I commissioned a 3d sculpt the outcome was pretty good but the scale was a little off. (the 15mm version was perfect for 6mm and the 28mm was pretty great for 15mm) I was hoping to get it rescaled for 28mm. So im looking for someone who can do this for me for a fair price but do it well. I have printed the file on shapeways with no issues and even sold a few link How much am I looking at? |

WHat format is the file in? Are you looking to just do a re-size, or add detail? |

It is usually pretty easy depending on the file format. |

Find a copy of the free download version of Netfabb. You can use it to scale .stl files. |

Try Sculpteo sculpteo.com/en Last time I checked you could resize your models there |

Most printers can take a file and rescale at the time of printing. There's no secret sauce to it. You can specify size in kraftwurx.com and Shapeways. |

wouldn't that be one of the printer's settings? |

It's not the resizing that I'm struggling with it's getting the size right next to a 28mm fig. |

NetFabb will let you resize it in real measurements, so if you want it 28mm high, you scale it to 28mm in that axis. G. |

I guess what i need is a 28mm 3d sculpt. Using shapeways the turnaround is just too long. |
