Great sword is on the list. And because I'm an #eldenring fan, it will be impractically gigantic.

Absolutely. All 4 parts in the kit (left and right, reverse and... normal?) are tested and ready to go. I've a backlog for releases but there will soon be lots more options for characters.

Pleased with the design for the #Charamancer longsword, but it's too delicate. I'll thicken up the blade for the next test #3dprint then it'll ready to wield by your #dnd hero.

Redid the scales on the Dragonborn head. A bit lumpy in the CAD but needs minimal supports to #3Dprint and came out brilliantly. Will make a couple of tweaks then it'll be in the store so you can build your Dragonborn hero by combining it with the rest of the Charamancer range.

Next #Charamancer part will be a Dragonborn head. Very work-in-progress, by far the most sculpting (opposed to vertex manipulation) I've ever done on a part.

Final #Charamancer print went perfectly. So many options. Seems I've presupported everything well all the way through the project. Do... do I know what I'm doing?!

Get them Friday.

One last full batch print of the #Charamancer modular starter kit. Grey resin will photograph better. Theoretically another test but everything has worked since alpha. In the store on Friday, join the mailing list so you don't miss it!
