How to Resize / Rescale 3D Models

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Easy Way to Resize Miniatures in Your 3D Slicer!
If you're like me you probably want your tabletop miniatures to be a specific size once you print them. But how do you make sure your Miniatures will be the correct size before you spend all the time printing them?
The answer is actually pretty simple. learning how to correctly use a reference model makes this process very easy.
my favorite reference model is Sir Scalesby. with a reference model you can easily resize / rescale your models in your 3D printing slicer.
As always if you have any questions about 3D printing feel free to post them in the comments or reach out to me on Facebook, Discord, Etc.😊

    I just found your Channel, I immediately subscribed, I'm new to 3D Printing, and I Recently got a Resin Printer, I understand I can Resize Miniatures from one Size to another, but, I just have one question, I can't seem to figure out Regarding Resizing. Im aware the bigger I scale the more Polygons will be Required for The Structure to keep The littlest of Details, due to reshaping of the Print, (Forgive me if I'm not accurately Right with Polygon naming or terminology) I wanna upscale a 32mm Miniature into a 6-10 inch Model, but I am Worried they will just look like Blobs of Details. Is there a way I can Restructure and Gain the Details without Losing the Detail? What kind of advice would you recommend? I don't even know where to Begin, when it comes to Restructuring the Finest bit of Details, what kind of Softwares would you recommend for a Beginer when it comes to this kind of Thing?

    First off, thank you for subscribing. It's always appreciated! Now onto your question. When you scale a model up your slicer should give you a decent idea of what it will look like. That should give you some indication of how a model will look after it's been scaled up. You are correct that at a certain point when a model is scaled up the details will start to get a bit blocky. However, how big you can make a model before that becomes an issue will depend on each model. Some models have an incredible amount of detail and you can scale them up quite high before noticing any issues. Others will be more apparent at much smaller scales. So I'd scale up a model in your slicer and see how it looks. If you don't see any obvious issues maybe just try printing the head at that scale to confirm before committing to the whole model. As for remeshing a model. That can certainly be done, but it will take a fair bit of practice to learn the process. I'd recommend getting Blender for that. It's a really powerful free program. And it has a large user base so there are lots of tutorials available. If you want more specific help I'd highly encourage you to join the Slice Print Roleplay Facebook group and ask questions there. I'm lucky enough to have made friends with quite a few 3D artist and they are all great about giving advice. Let me know if I can do anything else to help you on your journey. I'm excited to see what you come up with. 😊

    No need to apologize. It takes a bit to figure this all out. Yep! Whether you're using an FDM/filament printer or a resin printer, your slicer should allow you to scale your models. Just don't make them bigger or smaller than what your printer can handle.

    I'm unfortunately not familiar with that printer or that slicer. I'd recommend looking at the values for the X, Y, and Z. It's very hard to judge how large something is just based off of how it looks.
