D&D 5E Access to a 3D printer? Every monster for free

[Sacrosanct]

My kid has been harping on me to get a 3D printer for a long time now. This great and awesome guy has released every model from the MM for free, it is super tempting to do so. This is awesome. I guess this is old, but I just now ran across it.

Pretty cool, be nice if they came out painted.

Anyone know how they look? With the exception of the dragon all of the images are characters and it specifies monsters.

It highly depends on the printer you're using.

As for the rest of the images, the link to the files is in the article: http://www.shapeways.com/designer/mz4250/creations

how about quality? I wanted to buy a new printer for my girlfriend last year. She needed a good and practical printer for work at home. My mum told me about this website mrdepot.ca where I could find and buy a quality printer for a good price. These guys provide office products such as toner cartridge and printer products. Moreover, they have free and prompt delivery and that saved my money and time. My gf is happy with her new printer. So if u are still searching for a good printer, look over this site for more info!

What is the cost of materials? Time Cost? Paint time? I recently had a problem with my debit card. After 49 minutes on the phone over two days it was worth$5 just to order one online than spend X minutes on the phone again to get a new one issued for free.

how about quality?

The quality of the data is good. The quality of the print depends upon the printer you use and the material you print with.

How legal is this? I see several monsters that are usually protected.

That article is quite old, he actually has far more done now and it's become his full time job! Here is the recent reddit post he made with the full list of all his freely available models.

He has spoken with WotC directly, and as long as the files are posted on Shapeways which apparently Hasbro have an existing deal with they support it
