Update: I have changed the CC license of my models because of the lack of clarity around AI use. If you want to re-mix, reuse, rewhatever my model, just ask.. 

 

I made this mul gladiator in Blender. Since I made these models for my game I thought I would share with others. Some aspects of the design are simplified and exaggerated so that they can be relevant in a miniature scale. It also makes the model easier for FDM printing. That said, some of the details may not show up depending on your printer or print settings. See my examples in the pictures. (Complete with some layer shift and amateur painting ;) )
 

Dark Sun Gladiators:

"In a world with civilizations as harsh as those of Athas, only the most bloodthirsty sports can entertain the crowds enough to keep their attention from their miserable lot in life. The arenas provide such sport with the spilling of blood by mighty gladiators. The killing is a release for the crowd, symbolic of that which the citizens cannot perform themselves." - From The Complete Gladiator's Handbook

 

Printing Notes:

General Note: I print in FDM so I try to make my models FDM friendly. Though it should be noted that I print at 0.1 to 0.05mm layer heights and with a 0.25mm nozzle. You may find you need to make adjustments to supports to accommodate your printer or print settings. 

Supports: When I print (FDM) I tend to mix tree supports and standard Prusa Slicer rectilinear supports. I find that tree supports work well for downward pointing tiny fiddly bits and the reclaimer supports work well everywhere else. If you are printing in SLA you will need to generate your own supports. If you are printing in FDM feel free to use my gcode or 3mf file. Keep in mind the gcode specs. One is for 0.25mm nozzle the other is for 0.4mm. Your mileage may vary so you may want to do your own supports. 

Tiny Fiddly Bits: This model has some tiny fiddly bits that need extra support tlc. These areas are under the tips of the blades on the dragon paw handle. When making your own supports be mindful of these areas.

Tiny Details: Some tiny details will not show up when printing in miniature scale. I just get carried away in Blender sometimes. They don't all print, but I like knowing they are in the model.
