  I used https://desktophero3d.com/ to make a base model using free assets and then I customized them, using parts of other models found on other sites or modeled them by myself. Source: almost 3 years ago

• corpo minis?

  Have you tried something like this: https://desktophero3d.com/, I can make out some corpo looking models [takes a bit of time, the UI for the app isn't the best] for zero cost and it has modern and scifi asset packs in the $25 range each for more options to work with. Looks like they are switching to https://titancraft.com/, so might be worth checking that out also. Source: almost 3 years ago

  Https://www.heroforge.com/ Pricey per mini, but great for the players to buy their own character design, then send me the file. https://desktophero3d.com/ is also available, but generally worse, but cheaper and has different options, including "red panda" as a race. Source: over 3 years ago

  Desktop Hero 2.0 is a bit more realistic I would say. Might be worth checking out.https://desktophero3d.com/. Source: over 3 years ago

  Also, if you're looking to get into modelling your own minis without learning Blender, desktophero3d.com has quite a few free options and the ability for you to manipulate the bones of the model makes you able to adjust the mini so it doesn't need supports as often. Source: over 3 years ago

• Affordable Minis?

  I'm not sure if this will work out for you as well as it did for me. But my local library has a 3D printer and I build my characters here for free https://desktophero3d.com/ , download the file and can print it for free at the library. It takes a while to finish but yeah at the end of the day I had a free mini. Source: almost 4 years ago

• [OC] There's a HeroForge alternative that lets you make non humanoids.

  Titancraft is currently their monster-creation site. Their character creation site is desktophero3d.com, and they have horse mounts there. I think they're combining the two eventually? It does say on their kickstarter that all the models in DesktopHero will be in the final Titancraft. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Where to find contemporary/modern minis?

  Https://desktophero3d.com/ has some you can design. I use them to make some minis and have been happy with it. It is at least a start. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Last post for a while I promise. I designed all but the cultist on DesktopHero soon to be TitanCraft Hero. FDM prints. Maybe next I will do a Gnoll war party.

  I modeled both from DesktopHero https://desktophero3d.com/ It’s a web-based modeling program kinda like hero forge but I think better imo. The developers are working on TitanCraft which is more monster/beast modeling. The double sword/pouch on the back of the blue one was one of the accessories that are available on the.

  Btw. If I'm not mistaken, exporting a 3D-File costs money when you're using HeroForge. https://desktophero3d.com/ is a similar site but from what I've read, they allow you to export the model for free as long as you only use their free assets. Source: about 4 years ago
