So you're printing these yourself? I'd love to see some pics of both the 3D models and the printed models :)

I think casting them would be cheaper and involve less cleanup. :P My prints on the high res DLP machine cost me around £5 each model in consumables and then hours of my time to set it up and post process each print.

What printer do you own?
