So I should be getting mine in a month or so. Is anyone going to be in need of a printing service? I got this thing to print a manta but after that I'm kinda stumped on things unless I do batch printing. Looking mainly for big item prints or very large batches it's a 330x185x400 mm resin printer.

I have a large miniature (about 35 cm tall 8 cm wide at the base) I just commissioned, so I'm interested to at least test-print it to see how it looks before going to a professional service for a full production. I'll PM you if you're interested.
Here's a link to the Artstation page of the miniature: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/g8P4NE

I could give it a shot.

I'm a little concerned with the wing thickness at that scale but it might be thicker than it looks. Teeth will be difficult with that curve gonna run supports in the mouth which could break teeth in removal. Spines on the tail would be rough but it can be done but they will be very fragile. Same goes for spines on the arms but they should be less likely to be disturbed. That base will be interesting lots of overhangs.

It's gonna have to be manually supported to get the right combination of light and heavy supports. But I think it's possible to get 85% + of those details as one piece, you could get more by having it segmented and each part optimized for printing.

Just my initial thoughts from zooming in on the photos.
