Looking for oldschool looking (not necessarily "oldschool" proportioned) Cadians. Found some that are pretty close from Davikdesigns, but missing the rolled sleeves.

Hey all,
I am not the biggest fan of the Moria dragon ( https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/dragon-2022) and I figured there are plenty of dragon files. Do any of you know of a fitting dragon for Middle Earth? For size, the moria dragon is on a 120mm oval base.

There are so many dragon files out there it’s hard to start. Just do a search on Thingiverse amd there are loads of free options.

As Flinty said there are a LOT of dragons out there. You might have to resize them ,but there are LOADS
If anything quite a few are high detail big dragons so finding a more modest sized one might be tricky. That said there's a good few on thingiverse.
I'd also check out Lord of the Print and Mini Monster Mayhem - esp some of the earlier sculpts as they might be a touch on the less flamboyant end.

Yes, that there are so many is kind of the difficulty here, sl I thought, I asked if people have some ideas. I found LotP so far and have a look at the magma and red dragon. Gonna check out monster mayhem
Edit: the black dragon by MMM seems like a good fit on an oval base and not too fancy.

Yeah I thought some of the earlier dragons might well suit what you're after. MMM makes very good quality models. Supports are generally very very good as well, though some of the earlier ones are older supports. If they are lychee they'll be from the main supporter who is very good, if they are chitu then its the sculptors own so they might want a little review, but should print.

That is an excellent Dragon! I was searching on Thingiverse a while ago for a dragon and while I had not printed him yet, here was one of my favorites I found: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4594673 - I always like dragons that were a little gribbly looking.
And, here were some others I had saved in my Collections, as well: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:620234 ; https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4153299 - there are just so many for free on Thingiverse it is mind-boggling.

Looking for Crusader/Arab stuff to substitute for the running Baron's War Outremer KS.
Caballero/Reconquer has some of both, Asgard Rising has some cool knights, but aside from this, especially for Arabs, I'm turning up a blank.

has some crusaders and "Saracens" which may fit your fancy. They're also support-free so easy to print en masse, assuming you like the oldhammer style and sacrifices required to be support free.

I've been looking to get into 3D printing more due to wanting to make a pretty extensive city table/diorama, and this Kickstarter has gotten me very intrigued: http://kck.st/3ymjozh
Features some nice-looking Dark Ages/generic buildings too, but I'm most excited about the palisades because I've been looking for something suitable for Oathmark/Frostgrave/Lord of the Rings/Historical, but never quite found a "universal" look. This one I think would look fine with any of my figures!

A few more ideas:
Also check out Asgard Rising's campaign over on MMF (where you can find many of the post-campaign pledge managers which last a good long while so its a great place for KS prices).
The Fortified Village might be of interest

Awesome suggestions, thanks for the links. Do any of these jump out as "beginner friendly" (read: "idiot proof") compared to the others?

Honestly I can't say. Buildings aren't something I've invested into from anyone. Mostly because they tend to be more and FDM or at the very least large SLA printer project. That and I've utterly no room for terrain stuff right now. So I keep an eye on them but I've passed on all. The two firms I've mentioned are pretty solid with their support work and a lot of buildings can often be fairly simple side for supporting and printing. So they should print fairly easily.

Hi,
A bit of a dull request...
I need a bunch of replacement tails for the horses in my Empire army. Approx 35. I can't seem to find anything suitable asides from ridiculous Ebay prices so am hoping you guys can point me in the right direction
Cheers!

Honestly I don't think you'll find horse tails as parts. What you are more likely to find is a good quality horse sculpt that you like and then simply cut the tail off in editing. You could do that using something like mesh-mixer pretty easily.
The harder part will be attaching the tail since its going to be pretty small in contact area, doable but might be fiddly.
So if I were you I'd hit up My Mini factory, Cults, etc... and just search for horses/mounted horses and find a tail(s) that you like on them.

I've found that image searches give the best results. Just a simple search of what you're after and STL at the end, and you usually get linked to various STL search aggregator sites that you can flick through visually.
Best of luck with the printing!

If you are doing image searches one word of caution. Especially on sites like etsy and such be VERY cautious about prices that seem too good.
There are a lot of thieves out there and its very easy to find STL models that are being sold illegally.
So if you find something I strongly encourage you to spend a few more moments just to research that model. Throw the image into google images if there isn't a creator name attached to it; check any watermarks on the image. Spend a few moments just to make sure that the place you are buying from is legitimate; so that you know the money you are spending is going to the creator/studio and not to some random thief.
Broadly speaking sites like My Mini Factory are pretty safe; however sites like thingiverse, Etsy and any site that is independent of the major stores can be a theft site.
And if in doubt ask in places like here or in 3D print groups on facebook or reddit. Most people are more than keen to help shut down the thieves and to promote the creators directly

I'm looking for two very different things:
1) Anime inspired fantasy figures, bonus if they can be printed at 28/32mm and 72/75mm, but the problem is that while I can find many sexy ladies I can rarely find some dues outside of famous characters (Goblin Slayer I'm looking at you). I'd prefer to find a range of anime inspired D&D-esque STLs.
2) Ultramodern military and urban minis. I own a bunch of Wargame Foundry Street Violence minis, but to be quite honest they aren't the best sculpted modern urban combatants--they are unfortunately the only ones in any number. Again I can find one-offs, but it would be nice to see a range especially like Foundry's Street Violence with different factions as STLs.

For Anime you could look at
RNE studio
https://www.myminifactory.com/users/rnestudio
Also Nomnom have done some anime inspired larger and chibi style models for the 75mm bracket

RNE studio is kind of the problem I have. Their JRPG models are based on 8-bit Nintendo console games and Im looking for more modern anime designs. And while there are some fine "homages" to video game and anime characters, I'm looking for something less Link (from Zelda, Cloud (From FFVII), Goblin Slayer, Darkness (From Konosuba), etc..
I detest chibi or else I'd have had my fill of cheap plastic of that.
So, anime inspired generic class based miniatures--not chibi.
