Where To Find Files For 3D Printing Warhammer 40k Models NOW For Beginners

And Codename for Elder ? ^^

People that cant print leaving the negative comments, 3 d printing is so aweseome, it is the future of craftsmanship, digitally tuneable and customizable!

Etsy has become my best friend lol!

What’s your input on the Saturn 2 vs the Saturn 3?

🤔Battlemace 50k with the not god king of the imperial confederation with his 20 primary sons and their Space Rangers😏

Really cool how GW will keep models they stopped producing in the datasheets

STL?

1 word 'Telegram'.

My morals went out the window when i saw the prices for a few pieces of minis, plus i cant even get actual models in my country bcs they dont ship or sell here, and if i can its 3x more expensive than normally.

I understand that the community wants people to search for themselves rather than "stl? stl? stl?" but i would be really nice to have a centralized form or database of the basics.

They must not complain.
If you can get the investment of a 3D Printer back in just 1 day of printing stuff, their pricing is wrong.
Its selfexplainatory.

Compete! Make it cheaper ffs!

I am not a conspiracy guy, but when it went to you saying “The big three are…” it went to super long unskippable ads (movie trailers so 3 minutes each) and then crashed so I had to reload…

True i dont get why 1 figur in heroforge coast 40-55 dollers only for 1 😢😢

I do have a weird question, what would be a code name for Titans?

Misleading title. Most of the video has nothing to do with where to find files. Its about 7 mins in that you finally do. Was hoping i would find some cool places to buy files from that I didnt know about

Try this in Brazil, impossible!! Even with a 3D printer it is hard

Love your thinking. I'm doing it too.

What settings did u use

At this point, if someone buys me a bottle of resin, I will get them into the hobby with 2 custom combat patrols and keep the other half of the bottle as payment. 😂 GW get fugged.

STL????????????????

Games workshop needs to lower prices or they are gonna lose the war I can't justify the price of an army when I can buy a whole 3d printer for that price

"This is stealing".
No, stealing is me going to a shop and taking a box without paying it.
The merchant loses a box, because there is only one box.
This is Jesus magic: Before there was a box, now there are two boxes.

This is nothing different from paperhammer/poorhammer/however you call it: People have been for decades using the few minis that they had to play games. My brother and I played Warhammer Fantasy with a couple of half painted miniature regiments, a couple of bare metal heroes, and tens of squares of paper with labels.
This is not even just a Warhammer thing. I have thousands of Magic cards, and still there are decks I cannot build with the cards I have, so sometimes I have one real card and 3 islands with a piece of paper inside the card protector that says that it is instead the $50 I ain't buying to test this deck.

Additionally, to put it simply: If I couldn't 3d print my Imperial Knight army, I wouldn't play Imperial Knights. So either way, GW is not getting any money from me out of the prints. However, when I 3d Print, I then take part on tournaments, I buy paints, I get people excited about their products because I talk about the game with them, etc.

I have spent more than a thousand dollars in official GW miniatures, but I am at a point in which I do not want just the basic GW models, I want to kit bash and create new things that GW does not offer. I ain't going to buy a whole ass Immolator to get the candles.

Finally, there are original models from people who put GW models to shame by the details that they have, and they charge you $20 to have as many of them as you want.
I want to get into 3d printing because I do not want to be restricted to the sometimes boring GW models.
Back in the days, GW not only allowed, but encouraged people to make their army their own. Nowadays, all the personalization you can do is choose the color scheme, or risk to be disqualifed from playing a GW tournament for not using official miniatures, even if the base if official. Ah, and in some tournaments I have seen, they did not even allow you to choose your color scheme: You could not be purple sisters and choose to be Rose. Insanity.

Ok i understand... anyone knows other keywords for more older, fantasy stuff (if there is any ?)

GW should just offer stl files and stop intentionally making their clients financial interactions feel like getting fisted to the elbow

Where can you find files to print the actual GW models? Is it even a thing?

Hey mate you're videos got me interested in getting my first 3d printer but I just wanted to ask, do you need alot of space? And do you have any experience with fumes and other chemicals ruining a room or staining anything?

Man I live In latam and the least expensive kit (5 damn marines) is 100 bucks + importation fees. Like, how the hell am I supposed to get started on the hobbie? I am printing this shit!

3D printing didn't help me play, but I enjoyed the painting. But without it, I wouldn't have gotten into the games and books

The biggest problem I got is resin. that stuff's toxic af.

Admittedly, I have just been looking for a kit that is compatible with the primaris intercessors

I love how me a 16 yearold kid just had to save some money to get a resin printer and I can make such detailed models to play the Warhammer tabletop

I just would tell parts of the names of the model instead of links and let them try on all the sites,like if you wanna get a thunderhawk,just put ''potato patern'' and make some other cool discovery or maybe tell them the name of the modeler

spent the last 2 days just trying to find the model from your previous video, no luck.

EVERY ONE KNOWS GW STOLE the idea for WARHAMMER FANTASY FROM GYGAX's CHAINMAIL DONT YOU!
Oh.. and the Movie called ALIENS! for warhammer 40k!!

Agreed, if they want the game to thrive, the models shouldn't cost me an arm to support the creators and engage. That's one of the things that almost made me not even bother to try playing Warhammer until my bud bought a 3D printer and we found it saved us alot.

Use Metheythanded Spirits (Denatured Alcohol) over Isopropyl Alcohol. Save's you heaps!

my thoughts are, if you do 3d printing JUST for one warhammer 40k army, it might be only slightly less expensive than buying them at your LGS. However if you are doing more than just one army and a lot more things with 3d printing and also do it as a hobby, it makes a lot of sense financially. Personally, i like to collect files for 40k figures. I started with 4th edition where there are lot of pewter and just beginning with the newer plastic sets. 3d printing allows for more customization of pieces without HAVING to kitbash to get close to what you want, again IMO. also for some of the things like a thunderhawk gunship, soooooooooooo much cheaper than getting it from forgeworld. also, if you mess up a piece, you can just print a new one.

If they all have weird names, can we get a list of what each faction use lol?

I think having a 70% increase for the American market is bullshit and if they lose sales, it's their fault

The 138gb mega file is still around if you know where to look 🤫

I'm so OLD Hammer. I remember being young, having an ok job...and at that time i could collect every army then, nobody thought greed needed to go over the top and playing for fun was the point. GW sold out to the Suits..... I've read inside papers, where the owners were out right insulting players...nerd stereotypes. I've seen the hobby become how much can i squeeze out a wallet. A Little payback is not the end of the world. IF the price of plastic were that high, a light switch would cost $200.

Question for the community, I'm new to 40k and started an army but obviously having a 3d printer I want to start getting more out of that. My concern is how people at the shops would respond or if they would even notice. What's been people's experiences with trying to run their prints, any difference between the artistic takes vs as close to GW as possible?

The fact that there are stories circulating about a guy mortgaging his house for warhammer is proof enough they dont need our money and can F off. Its a more complicated board game that costs pennys to print and produce why should I pay more than the price of a car just to participate.

To the stealing the IP statement and I found in my community that most people that say that are the same people that will buy China cast or recast figures with no qualms whatsoever

Great video! love the edit of STL, stl, StL, got the files
reminded me of the gulls in finding Nemo "MINE"

I used to play 40K back in the 80s and early 90s but haven't been involved outside books and video games for a long time. But awhile back I dug out a bunch of old Templars and decided to give it another go. On my wife I justified a grown man buying toys for himself by using the excuse of getting my niece and nephews into the hobby, because they're getting to that age where they could start getting in trouble, and though we do a lot of canoeing and hiking and stuff, I said I wanted to have something to do with them inside when it rains and during winter. So they were introduced to Syama Pedersen's Astartes Project, and the DOW video game series, then Baldemort and Arch and they ate up all my Horus Heresy books. In truth I was looking for a way to save myself some scratch by finding something to keep me from spending money at the bar out of sheer boredom. Then after shooting my mouth off and getting them excited, GW prices began to sink in... x4... and how pissed off my sister and my cousin were going to be at me for getting their kids hooked on plastic crack and the most expensive money pit in the entire gaming world in the form of a neverending meta. As for saving money by staying out of the Dewdrop Inn? I thought, for what this is going to end up costing me I might as well be daydrinking all week long and buying rounds... Laying down Hollywood rails on the bar and 5hi7 FFS... Then a Gamza video came up in my YT suggestions. Pretty soon I was watching all kinds of 3D printing videos and going through STL file sharing sites. Then I discovered Grimdark Future and my a55 was saved. I bought a Mars2 Pro and told the kids this is how we're starting, and if they like it and seriously want to get into it, we can play Horus Heresy and I showed them my $360 box and they all looked at me sideways and started gating off calling me a hypocrite and I said "Shut up kid and paint your damned nuns!" But seriously I'm not spending a ton of money on 9th Edition for myself and 3 kids. I'd rather get second hand 8th Edition stuff for them until 10th comes out, and we're having a ton of fun playing Poorhammer and painting our bootleg minis anyway.

GW needs to offer official 3D Files
