Commissioned / bespoke STL printing
A character drawn to your brief and nobody else's. Sword arm reaching out, wrists and weapon hafts no thicker than a match, and exactly one of them in the world.
The sculptor owns the file and sends it to you when the work is done. Get the finished sculpt from them, then upload it here and the printing is ours.

One sculpt, made real
How to get Commissioned / bespoke STL printing files to print
Ask your sculptor for the finished file once the commission is done, saved exactly as it came off their screen. Upload it here and we print it, one figure or every version they sent you.
What we need from the file
One miniature per STL, exactly as it came out of the download. Send the plain model rather than a pre-prepared or sliced version, because those confuse the sizing, and we do that part here.
No bases. We print the miniature, not the base it stands on, so leave those out of what you send. If a model comes in parts, upload each part separately and we will print them together.
Questions
Can you print my STL file?
Yes. Upload it above, size it foot to eye, and the tool prices the job on the spot. You need to own the model or have the right to have it printed, and one of our team checks every file before it goes on a printer.
How much does it cost?
The price appears the moment your file uploads, worked out from the size you choose, and it is the whole price with nothing to add afterwards. There is no minimum order, so one model is a perfectly normal order.
What size can I have it printed at?
28mm, 32mm, 35mm, 55mm or 75mm measured foot to eye, or type an exact height instead. 75mm is the largest we print.
Do you print bases?
No. We print the miniature itself, so leave bases out of what you send. If a model comes in parts, upload each part separately and we will print them together.
When will I receive my order?
We dispatch five days a week and print on demand. Our average dispatch time is four days, and a very large order has taken as long as twenty. You can contact us at any time to check on your order, and we can usually part-dispatch a UK order that is taking longer than usual.
What are the miniatures made from, and do I need to wash them?
Light-reactive resin, and no. Every miniature is dispatched washed and cured, so it arrives clean and ready to prime and paint.
What does postage cost?
UK standard postage is £3.95, or free over £50. Large or fragile parcels are £5.50, or free over £50. International parcels are $26 to the USA, free over $115, and $18 to Canada, free over $150.
What if a thin sword or barrel arrives bent?
Our resin flexes rather than snaps, which protects it in the post, so a slim part can arrive slightly bent. Dip it in lukewarm water for a second, hold it straight as it cools, and the new position locks in. Repeat if it needs it, and ask us if you would rather we advised first.
What if my file will not print?
Every custom print is made to order from your file, and we cannot know whether a model will print until we try. If yours cannot, we refund the miniature fee in full. The setup fee covers preparation already done and is not refundable, and a made to order print is exempt from change of mind returns.
We also print
A commissioned sculpt is a figure that exists once. A sculptor works to your brief, gives the character the face and the stance you asked for, and sends back a file with a sword arm outstretched and wrists no thicker than a match. Nobody else owns it and no shop stocks it, so the printing has to be worth the sculpt.
The sculptor sends you the finished file when the work is done. Get it from them, then upload it here and the printing is ours.
Your commission is printed to order at the height you choose, in high detail grey resin, then cleaned and posted to you ready to paint. Upload the sculpt and the price appears there and then, with no form, no minimum and no back and forth. A single commission is a complete order.
