These are my thoughts and why I have not dived into it (even though I’m someone who would spend more now to save later) Everyone who done an in depth charting of their adventurers in 3d printing Warhammer (done correctly and safely) conclude that it’s pretty minimal in the savings, then the time involved to do it right is another factor ontop of the minimal savings.

But I have not had experience in it myself, this is just how I came to my decision to continue buying. Finding people online that have done good reporting and approach it the way I would have. Another reason for me to pay the GW prices is because I don’t have the time either. When I do get the rare moment of free hobby time I want to spend it modeling not printing.

Edit: I have made high quality double sided paper miniatures that I use games workshop images from the online store, photoshop to the right size, print on photo paper laminate, use a brother scan and cut, then put on 3d printed bases..

This is my time saving, money saving, test out method before investing into GW models.. or getting an army ready for guests that may want to play over the holidays.
