Description
This is a replica of the classic figure set from Ral Partha, 01-111, "Demons (3) with Separate Heads (4). ( See http://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Personalities_and_Things_that_go_Bump_in_the_Night#01-111 )
This set was part of their "Personalities and Things that go Bump in the Night" series.
I have included separate files for all 4 heads, the 3 bodies, plus the 3 composite models I test printed. Shown are model A with head 1, model B with head 3, and model C with head 2.
This set was very challenging to scan and to print. I hope you enjoy it.

Notes:
To build a demon, select a body and a head (or, what the heck, pick more than one head if you want -- really, the scarier and weirder the better, right?). Then composite the model in your favorite 3D editing software (I use Blender).
I found tree-type supports much better, particularly for the "C" model, for which the supports can be hard to remove without breaking off the head of the staff. For the "B" model, I included a dummy pillar next to the trident to increase the layer dwell time (see the image). Small spikes on top tend to print better that way.
Finally, set Z = -0.2mm to insure a nice flat bottom.
