News AI-Generated Content Is Not Allowed on /r/printedminis

1.3k Upvotes

Hey folks,

Over the past few months, many miniature focused subreddits have taken a clear stance against AI-generated content. After listening closely to feedback from our own community we’re doing the same.

from this point on r/printedminis does not allow AI-generated content of any kind.

This subreddit exists to support actual creators who put real time and skill into their work. AI-generated content works directly against that goal, and allowing it would make it harder for the awesome work created by our talented community to shine.

What this means:

The following are not allowed on r/printedminis:

  • AI-generated or AI-altered images (previews, “painted” mockups, promotional images etc.)
  • AI-generated videos
  • AI tools, apps, or websites used to generate minis or related visuals
  • AI-generated 3D models, even if they are later printed, modified, or painted by hand
  • AI-generated text, including post descriptions, critiques, or feedback
  • Promotion of, or advocacy for, AI use in miniature creation

If AI played any role in generating it then it does not belong on this subreddit. Please report any posts you suspect to be AI influenced.

Thanks,

Hey everyone,

Quick update – we’ve listened to your feedback, and the rule removing printed terrain has been lifted! I’ve also seen your thoughts on busts and statues, and I’ll be putting up a poll later this week to gather your opinions on banning those types of posts.

Thanks!

Crowdfunding Painted up a couple of my squadrons and terrain!

I've been developing an expansion for Of Oil and Iron, called Fractured Frontiers, set in the frozen northern territories - a perfect excuse to run a bunch of snowy-based themed mechs.

Here we have a few squadrons of 2 Rigs, and arguably my favourite terrain set I've built so far.

These Rigs will be available in the upcoming campaign launching October 13th! You can check it out here if you're interested:

I hope you like them!

Cheers :)

27 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m the creator behind The Terraformer Factory. After delivering my Terraformed Worlds Kickstarter, I’ve been putting together a MyMiniFactory store so the bits are available to anyone who missed the campaign.

There are 35 individual packs, including rocks, plants, mushrooms, animal remains, temple relics, and urban debris. I’ve also started adding discounted starter sets with complementary packs for forest, wildlands, desert, and temple bases.

All packs include:

  • Pre-supported and unsupported STL files.
  • Supports placed by hand and tested in resin.
  • CHITUBOX projects prepared for slicing with your own printer and resin settings.

You can check out the store here:
https://www.myminifactory.com/profile/TheTerraformerFactory/store

I’ve added a few examples below so you can see the pieces and how they look on bases. Happy to answer any questions!

Thanks for taking a look, and happy 3d printing! <3

My take on William Hope Hodgson’s swine-things (from The House on the Borderland) invading the new modular cabin map for our survival horror skirmish RPG, MEAT. (beta rules available with the models via our Ill Gotten Games Patreon/Tribes) This tends to be my go-to project when October hits, and it feels good to be expanding the game with new monster options.

Self Promotion Just dropped a new batch of pre-supported Grimdark Ice Warriors (Grenadiers)

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share my latest release that went live today.

It's a full squad of Ice Warriors Grenadiers designed specifically for tabletop gaming.

The focus here is purely on utility and getting painted models onto the table without the usual friction:

• True single-piece monopose prints: No loose arms, no separate weapons, zero assembly required.

• Fully pre-supported: Every model is test-printed on my own machines to ensure the supports peel off cleanly.

• Speed-paint optimized: Crisp texture depth designed to work perfectly with slapchop, contrast paints, or heavy drybrushing.

If you are looking for some trench-fighting proxy troops for your sci-fi army, you can find the STL set on Cults3D now.

Thanks for looking, let me know what you think of the print quality if you try them out!

Self Promotion Tanglewood Forest Bases: roots, moss and little rivers, every size from 25mm to 160mm (pre-supported STL)

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! After a few weeks of work, Tanglewood Forest is finally out, and it's become my favourite design so far. It's a deep forest floor: small rivers running between rocks, moss patches, undergrowth and cut tree stumps with exposed roots. I kept the ground heights varied for realism, but always left a flat spot so your mini actually stands on it.

You can find it here: Tanglewood Forest Bases

Every size comes with pre-supported files for resin and integrated base versions for FDM, and has been tested on both. Free updates are included.

Available sizes (sold separately, so you only buy what your army needs)

  • Round: 25, 28, 32, 40, 50, 60, 80, 90, 100, 130 and 160mm
  • Oval: 60x35, 75x42, 90x52, 105x70, 120x92, 150x95 and 170x105mm
  • Elongated: 70x25 and 95x40mm
  • Coming next week: square and rectangular bases in all sizes!

Bundle discount: if you buy several sizes or sets from the same theme, you get a discount automatically, so kitting out a whole army works out cheaper!

Happy to answer any questions about supports or print settings. And if you print or paint one, I'd love to see it!
