I’ve begun printing more minis for TTRPG, and since i only have a cheap bedslinger that’s what I’m using.

Normally I’ve just stuck with minis designed specifically for supportless FDM printing, but I wanted to try my hand at something else and went with this Minotaur

fresh from the printer, supports all over

supports removed front

supports removed back

There’s still a bit of post-processing before priming and painting, but I’m actually pretty happy with the quality, considering it was done on a $200 entry-level printer.

Printed in eSun PLA+ with a 0.2mm nozzle and 0.08mm layer height, it took just short of 9h to print it.

    That looks incredible for FDM! I’ve tried a few times but my Ender can only do .2mm layer height at best.

    But I’ve been following this YouTuber’s efforts and he gets really good results on FDM and has pointers, settings, tools, and supports that might help you get even better results (if you haven’t seen these already):
