Hi Jake, The master for the minis get printed at places that have high definition printers, one of the ones I know of is moddler.com in California I think and the other place I know of is somewhere in Munich. The previous two characters were character skins for League of Legends, skin is just a term for models wearing alternate outfits, these used to be just texture variations, but these days they're more full blown new sculpts and low poly meshes with new textures. Here's a couple more minis, the ninja girl might get re-posed before printing, my client and I are still deciding some of that:

Quote: Yes, i need to work on my hand painted Texture skills though ;) as you and I both know. Thank you all.A wall with uniform bricks running along horizontal rows is a common asset that is easy to create. Creating nonuniform rough stones that stray away from the horizontal course, such as rubble masonry, is a more challenging matter. The amount of noodling required to make the rubble masonry wrap and tile seamlessly is enough to drive most artists mad.
