Art of Mike Printing Service

Gangers under a broken gantry. Armoured troopers with aerials and gun barrels bristling, and a vehicle that has plainly been shot at more than once. The grubby end of the future.

STEP ONE — GET THE FILES

Art of Mike sells the files themselves, as an ongoing collection you can join. Pick up the gangs and ruins you want from them first, then bring the file straight back here.

PRICE: Worked out from the size you choose, and shown in full with its breakdown before anything reaches your basket.
FINISH: High detail grey resin, washed and cured. Ready to prime and paint.
YOUR FILE: Stored securely and used only to make your print. Never sold, shared, or added to anything we sell.

The grimy future, printed

Art of Mike sculpts a future that has been lived in hard. The gangs are underfed and overarmed, the troopers carry kit that has clearly been repaired, and the ruins behind them are industrial rather than romantic. Everything is dented, patched or rusting somewhere, which makes an Art of Mike model unusually good practice for weathering.

Upload the file here and the model comes back in high detail grey resin, cleaned and ready to paint, printed in our own UK studio. The price shows as soon as the upload lands, with no quote form and no minimum order. One trooper at 32mm joins the crew you already field, and at 75mm it becomes a display piece.

Over 35,000 customers rate our high quality resin 5 stars.

RULE OF THUMB

Sizes run from 28mm to 75mm, measured foot to eye, so your miniature matches the collection it is joining. You can type an exact height instead.

WHERE THE FILES LIVE

We do not sell Art of Mike files. They do, on the 1 channel listed above. Pick what you want there, then bring it back here and we will print it.

How to get Art of Mike files to print

The files are Art of Mike's own, so start there and take the gangers, ruins and vehicles you want. Save them, upload them here, and choose the height for each model.

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.
