I want to make cool wallpapers and artwork of 90s 3D models. I also want to 3D print and paint them because I don’t want to buy real ones and support gw because they deleted tts. I want space marine and eldar vehicle that are 3D printable. How do I find them?

You don't


If you want models from the 90s most of the GW ones from back then won't even be sold by GW they will be second hand models on ebay. So you're not putting any money into GW's hands

Otherwise if you want current models buy current models - get them from a 3rd party shop that way you're helping your local market.

Otherwise there's loads of 3D designers doing their own unique takes on models in spired by GW designs. Go support them Help the market grow and evolve don't support recasting/rip off designs.

Well....I have found a few 'retro' models here and there.

For example, I've found the old-school Kasrkin sculpts, a very faithful rendition, but armed with all weaponry that current Tempestus Scions can have (so in addition to hellgunners, Grenade Launchers, Meltaguns and the old sword+plasma sergeant there's also a Kasrkin plasma gunner, kasrkin volley gunner and kasrkin banner carrier)

The main problem is I love the old classic sculpts quite a lot and there doesnt seem to be many people interested in exactly re-creating them. For example i've had my eye out for juan diaz daemonette sculpts for ages, but nobody seems to be at all interested in recreating them faithfully rather than taking the general concept and poses and adding a couple of watermelons to each one.
