The download-and-print-your-own route requires a bit more work, but you’ll be able to further modify your character in the design software of your choice, and in the end you’ll be able to print multiple copies of your character. If you choose to print directly from Hero Forge, then you’re done! Just order the print and wait for it to ship (and feel free to skip the rest of this tutorial). Or, if you prefer to have the digital file, you can pay $10 to download an STL of your character that you can modify further with design software, or offer for sale in your Shapeways shop. For a 3omm Tabletop Scale model, print should cost about $15 in Nylon or $35 in Steel.

Or, you can opt for a more traditional look here is our Dwarf Cleric with a more standard set of features, armor, and weapons:Īfter you create your Hero Forge character you can add and label a custom base, choose from a wide variety of poses, or even mount your character on a horse! When you’re finished you can send your model for 3D printing in Nylon, Steel, or other Shapeways materials. Hero Forge isn’t just for D&D it includes sci-fi and other character tools as well, so if you’d like your Dwarf to have robotic legs, lizard scales, or butterfly wings, you can do that too: For example, here’s a starting form and head for a Dwarf Cleric character: Then select Head features like mustaches, expressions, eyebrows, and even teeth. This first thing you’ll have to do is select a Race to set your basic body type and gender. Creating models in Hero Forge is free, and when you order, the file will go directly to Shapeways. Before you get started, create an account with Hero Forge so that you can periodically Save your model while creating it.
