HERO EVIL TEAM STINKS

THE LAB OF GARA

I am a dad to two beautiful girls and I enjoy helping them discover the multiverse through nerd objects that I 3D print

This is one of the models from my small 3D printing lab  
I enjoy designing, testing, and sharing these figures with those who love to print, paint, and collect miniatures

I am a big Bambu Lab fan and all my prints are primarily made with P2S and A1 mini

Before publishing a model, I always do several test prints to check stability, supports, and overall quality

Click here to join my Discord group: occasionally we do evening live sessions to talk about 3D printing, projects, tests, and new ideas to develop together

------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED PRINT SCALE

I often do test prints at a reduced scale (about 10 cm) to check the model's behavior

But there's an important thing

If you print it larger, around 15 cm, besides gaining details, you also gain ease of printing

My advice:  
enlarge it as much as you want, but add a few extra supports where needed

Proof that the model prints correctly is in the real photos in the post

Only basic slicing knowledge is needed

If you have doubts, feel free to write to me: if I can help, I'm always happy to do so

------------------------------------------------

PRINT PARAMETERS USED FOR TESTS

Test scale: about 5 cm

PLA Basic white  
Layer height: 0.16 extra fine  
Supports: tree hybrid  
Outer brim: 10 mm  
Object spacing: 0 mm

SUPPORT REMOVAL

The supports are designed to be quite delicate

They can be removed without damaging the model, but calmly:
one at a time, slowly, using tweezers and a bit of patience

No need to go Rambo on the supports…  
otherwise something will break and you'll end up crying in front of the printer

------------------------------------------------

TECHNICAL NOTES (the truth, not poetry)

I prefer to print the figures in monochrome and paint them after priming using acrylic markers or miniature painting techniques

The colored images on the cover are just coloring examples generated with AI to show possible painting styles

The final result always depends on the personal taste of the person painting the model, I apologize for some imperfections and slight differences between the real model and the AI model, I still need to perfect the method!!!!in all cases, you have my photos, both with and without supports, as a reference for the printed model!!!

The design originates from an AI generation (Tripo), subsequently manually refined and tested in FDM printing to ensure real printability

The real print photos are the monochrome white or gray ones in the gallery

------------------------------------------------

THE PART THAT DECIDES IF YOU PRINT OR GET FRUSTRATED

Bed adhesion

I use CryoGrip Pro Frostbite and the adhesion is so strong that the prints seem to have taken out a mortgage on the bed: they never detach

I mainly use Bambu filaments and I have no problems

If you use a different setup:

• first, focus on bed adhesion  
• use dry, quality filament  
• keep the bed perfectly clean  
• don't be afraid to use brim or extra supports

With these precautions, printing becomes much simpler and more reliable

THE HEROME COLLECTION

If you like this model, you can find all the other figures in the collection here:

But be careful…

if you start printing them, you'll end up wanting them all

If you like the model, leave a like, it really helps the project grow a lot
