Description
Fablekin Guardians is a set of 10 stylized fantasy/sci-fi “guardian” characters—each designed like a collectible hero figure with clear silhouettes, readable armor shapes, and personality-driven details (ears, horns, capes, runes, plating, etc.).
The concept goal is simple:
Cute + heroic + premium collectible—a set that looks great as:
- a 3D printed desk figure
- a tabletop / display miniature
AI disclosure:
These models were created using AI-assisted 3D generation tools and then refined through artist creativity and decision-making (posing, selection, style consistency, and presentation).
3D Printing Notes & Suggested Settings
These are general settings that work well for most characters in the pack:
Recommended Print Type
- Resin (SLA/DLP/MSLA): Best for crisp details and small features (faces, runes, armor edges).
- FDM (Filament): Works well if you scale up slightly and use good supports.
Suggested Scale
- Mini scale: 60–90mm tall
- Display scale: 120–180mm tall (recommended for maximum “wow”)
Orientation
- Print upright when possible for best face/armor detail.
- If your printer struggles with ears/horns, tilt 15–30° (resin) to reduce suction and improve support success.
Layer Height
- Resin: 0.03–0.05mm (detail sweet spot)
- FDM: 0.12–0.20mm (use 0.12–0.16 for cleaner results)
Supports
- Resin: light supports for cape edges + ears/horns; medium supports under feet and heavy overhangs.
- FDM: tree supports recommended for capes and small protrusions.
Infill / Walls (FDM)
- Walls: 3–4
- Infill: 10–18% (increase if you’re printing larger than 150mm)
Finishing Tips
- Quick sand + primer makes these look like store-bought collectibles.
- Metallic acrylics or dry-brush techniques work great on armor.
