But these are STL files only or complete models? link |

Those are 3d printed models, why else would they have free shipping? STL files do not need to be shipped. |

In the description it says "printed in resin." |

Not my bag, but I'm getting more and more interested in buying a 3D printer. My problem would be knowing what printer to buy – not a clue! |

@olicana There is/was a 3d print board in here. There might be some guidance there. Also, anybody thinking about a Riddick game just found their Necromomgers. |

Interesting line of figs! |

It is an Etsy seller printing figs under license from Black Remenant. What normally happens is that an STL maker has a number of high tier slots on Patreon to allow vendors to print their things. As long as they maintain the monthly membership to a "vendor tier" they can print off the figs. If you want the stls to print them yourself…start off at the maker's Patreon. |

Note to Olicana; you don't need your own printer to use STL files. There are plenty of third party printers out there who will print your files to your requirement. Here in NZ, a friend has just had some printed by a third party and he is very happy with the outcome. |

Olicana, just buy a printer, for the price you can pay someone to print them, you can buy the printer. it will open up a whole new world. get a resin printer. I have a epax, its a little more expensive, but I think any of the major brand cheaper printers will make you more than happy. Unless someone lives in a small apartment or something, is one wargames theh should buy a printer. |

>, just buy a printer, These machines are not like a paper printer, so I would advise you to ask somehone who owns a printer to show you the process. |

Good adboce from Puster. The learning curve is not very steep. There are some tricks to learn and knowing what accessories to buy at first will save you a fair amount of money. |

"The learning curve is not very steep." I'll be kind and just point out that it depends where you start. |
