DESIGNER Chibi · 28 TO 75MM

Capsule Chibi Printing Service

Small bodies, big heads, and a very long back archive. Capsule Chibi sculpts chibi miniatures, original characters and fanart, for the gaming table and the painting desk.

STEP ONE: GET THE FILES

Capsule Chibi sells the files on Patreon, where the back archive sits behind the membership you join. Grab the figure you want there, then upload it on this page and we print it.

Capsule sculpts chibi, we print

Cute is the remit at Capsule Chibi. Original characters and fanart, sculpted small and stylised for gaming tables and painting shelves, released steadily enough that the back archive now runs to years of figures. Subscribers get whatever the archive holds at their membership, plus the new releases as they land. Printing is our side of it. Upload a Capsule file and the price is worked out and shown on the spot, with no minimum and no quote to wait on. We print it to order in our UK studio in grey resin, clean it up and post it to you ready for primer. Chibi rewards a clean print, because so much of the character sits in one small face.

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 capsule 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 capsule files to print

The figures come from the Capsule Chibi Patreon, including the archive of past releases. Download the one you want and upload it here.

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 £4.95, and UK delivery is free on orders of £55 and over. Large miniatures are £5.50. Postage to the USA is $20, and free on orders over $100. Other countries are calculated at checkout.

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.
