Puppetswar Miniatures Printing Service
Heads, weapons, armour panels and the small pieces that turn a plain trooper into your trooper. Grimdark soldiers and armoured vehicles too, with plenty of parts to change them about.
Puppetswar sells the files themselves, so start there. Pick the heads, the weapons or the vehicle you want, then bring the file back here and we print the parts.

How to get Puppetswar Miniatures files to print
The files come from Puppetswar, so pick yours up there. There is a monthly collection to follow and single sets sold on their own. Bring the file back here and choose a height.
VISIT PUPPETSWAR MINIATURESWhat 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
Puppetswar sculpts grimdark soldiers, armoured vehicles, and a great many parts to change them with. Heads, weapons, armour panels and the small pieces that turn a plain trooper into your trooper. It is a range for people who want an army nobody else has, and Puppetswar has been at it a long time.
Pick the parts you want from the studio's own releases, then upload the files and we print them. The price shows the moment you upload, worked out on the spot, with no minimum and no quote to request. A handful of heads is a perfectly ordinary order.
Parts arrive in grey resin with the fine detail held, washed, cured and ready to prime, despatched from our studio in the UK.
