Description
I needed some cool light sources and couldn't find much for torches/braziers out there, so I created some! There are 3 styles, each with a model for a torch and brazier - Gothic, Stone, and Fancy (wasn't sure what to call this one - could be in a nobleman's house, dwarven, etc). These models are a PITA to paint nice but really add that extra pizzaz to the room!
Notes on printing: These are not easy to print - they are small and have a decent amount of detail. The samples in the pics were printed @ 40mm/s with .12mm layer height w/ my modded Wanhao i3 plus with good cooling. The torch shafts are so small that you cannot print them one at a time since the layers stay soft and they melt/tip over. For maximum success, print at least two at a time, so the individual layers get a chance to cool before the next layer is laid down. You need to have your retraction dialed in or you will end up with lots of stringing between the torches. I also printed the torches w/ 100% infill so they had a bit of weight to them and didn't tip over super easily, which worked out nicely.
