Another update for everyone today, Shellder printed out nicely (and is staring creepily at me while I type this) so that means the files will be up hopefully tonight for everyone to print off. FDM printers should only need supports at the back of the shell, otherwise you should be good.
The other reason for the post is what's pictured. In between the main Pokemon I've been sculpting, I have been building a larger diorama of an evolution trio that I would like to get out to everyone by t...

The Metapod files are available now for all Patrons, both Ornamental versions and the Basic. Both designs have a hanging version, a stand version if you wanted to prop him up, and an uncut version for you do to whatever you want with.
Shellder is nearly done and will be going for a test print soon and then on to Cyndaquil! I'm trying to think of alternate ways to display the models, maybe a shorter version of the current plinth so it's not as long as a print. If anyone has any ideas on ...

I’ve got Metapod all sculpted and ready to go, just need to come up with a nice stand for him so that he sits up correctly. Metapod will be perfect for the hanging loop though, just toss him in a house plant and done! Shellder is up next and the first of our Patron picks. Who’s gonna add to the list next?!

The Machamp models are available to all Patrons now and I think he's my new favourite. The other Clefairy models are now available as well so its a busy day for the printers! And remember, if you post them on your social media tag them with #Maple3D so I can see them!
Order of next up is:
Metapod - in progress
Shellder - Patron Pick
Cyndaquil - Patron Pick

Hello friends!
While the Machamp test print continues right now (I want to make sure he stands ok) I was able to finish up the Clefairy model in the mean time! The clean version still needs to be rigged but I wanted to get the Ornamental version into your hands as soon as possible. I tried to pose this one so it can be a little more FDM friendly and use only minimal supports, probably between the legs and beneath the bow should be it.
Next up is Metapod so ...

I have a collection of miniature bases that I have modelled for table top games like Warhammer that would work perfectly as additions to the Pokemon models. If we can get to 20 Patreons then I will release the full collection of 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, and 60mm versions of each environment. If they are popular I can look at doing more as well, maybe ones specific to each Pokemon down the line?

Hello everyone!
Just a quick one showing the progress of the Machamp model. Not much left to do before rigging and then running a test print. Also I would love to see your prints, so make sure you tag your photos with #maple3d!

Just a quick post to show what's available now and what is coming down the pipe. What you have available to you now as a Patreon or not is the Mew Deluxe model. I have uploaded just the deluxe verison to Thingiverse and Cults as a free preview so that everyone can see what the models are like. If you would like the other versions and the display plinths, you will have to join the Patreon.
Next we have the upcoming models! Currently I have Pikachu, Machamp, and Clefairy picked out for th...

Welp, here it is! Launch day and the first post. If you have come around and decided to support me, I can't thank you enough. But on to the goodies and what you came for!
Mew was the first sculpt and print I decided to do for this endeavour. That mystical #151 that you were never sure was there when you were playing Red or Blue growing up.
Inside the folder you will find a bunch of files for your printing pleasure. Deluxe and Clean versions of Mew as well as versions with hooks fo...
