Re: [TML] Interesting 3D Print Designs

Cool! I also recently obtained a 3D printer (a Flashforge Adventurer 3)
and have been mucking about.
I have found the following:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3688989 (Aslan with pistol)
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3692593 (male ship crew with rifle)
I printed out on of the riflemen. It's nice, but the build needed
"supports", and it's tricky to get all of those off without damaging the
figure given how small it is.
And other Type S Scout, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4858858
That one I scaled up to a 3D length when I printed it.
Oh and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3690917, because nothing says
"Traveller" quite like "shotguns in space."
