This time I present a set of chess pieces inspired by Nordic Vikings. Carved with runes, axes, horns and long beards :)

If possible, print them in resin! The pieces have a lot of fine details.
Although even an FDM print with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.08–0.1mm layer height came out very nicely.

If you can, also use a high infill to give the pieces a desirable feeling of weight.

 

Print Difficulty level: [4/10]

 

[ Suggested Print Setup for 6-10cm figurines ]

Nozzle: 0.4mm
Layer Height: 0.1mm
Infill: 50% or more - for nice feeling of weight
Wall loops: 2
Supports: Tree (auto)
Threshold Angle: 30
Printed with: 
- PLA Matte Charcoal + Metallic Paint (or not)

As always!
The key to printing my figurines is having good adhesion to the build plate. I use CryoGrip Pro Frostbite for printing, which provides excellent grip, ensuring that every figurine prints successfully every time. I mainly use filaments from Bambu and have no issues with them either. If you have a different setup, make sure to focus on build plate adhesion, use high-quality dry filament, and everything should be fine.
