Anyone know of any good sites for (good) STLs of the popular tabletop/wargaming miniatures?

And, more importantly, anyone have any good experiences with them? My gut would be that the vast majority are pointless in FDM and require the granularity of resin. But I have also seen some wild prints that take advantage of ridiculously thin layer sizes to have insane detail. And, if it isn’t a complete fool’s errand, this would be a fun set of projects to fine tune both my printing ability and my painting skills.

    To be fair, that is true of all miniatures and model kits. It is generally less noticeable if you are dealing with injection molded sprues as a good pair of nippers can get you most of the way. But it is still good to have some sandpaper to touch things up.

    Hell, I use an old pair of nippers to remove supports and overhangs from a lot of my “normal” prints.

    … and now I am really curious what a 3d printed runner would be. Might do a proof of concept/experiment in onshape.
