Be prepared for lots of failed prints and slow print times as you tweak and optimize your printer. As for which printers to use? SLA is the preferred choice as you will get better results, but if you don’t have this option FDM can be used. For now, we’ll stick with 28mm as the default. For roleplayers, this may be preferred as the miniature can better reflect their characters' appearance and equipment. Larger scales such as 72mm allows the designer more flexibility and greater fidelity when it comes to detail. Printing at a larger scale does have one obvious advantage, detail. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but if you do build an army this way, you will find it difficult/impossible to enter official tournaments. Instead, you will be limited by equivalent models by independent artists.
This applies equally to wargaming as it does roleplay as it is possible to print entire armies, but it should be noted that printing scans of models from studios such as Games Workshop or Reaper is illegal.

For information on printing terrain, here's a link to Part 2. To get up to speed on 3D Printing technology, take a look at Part 1. Nothing quite beats the immersion we get from gaming with crafted terrain and models, not to mention the ease of understanding an encounter when we can visualize where everybody is! Today we are going to look at how 3D printing can enhance our gaming experience, with the focus this time upon 3D printed miniatures.
