Thank you for introducing the idea into my head to import a model of a certain size!! I want to print 1/12th scale doll furniture for a 1/4th scale doll (roughly 40-45cm) and math is not always my friend. lol.
Hello. I have a Tina2s printer for my kids to start. We use Pikaslice with it. My question is, while creating it looks like I do the max measurements, but the 3-D print still comes out extra small? Why?

I'm unfortunately not familiar with that printer or that slicer. I'd recommend looking at the values for the X, Y, and Z. It's very hard to judge how large something is just based off of how it looks.
thank you so much! i bought an STL and it said it "could" go from 1/8 to 1/12 and i was like oh sweet--but i didnt check the scale before printing and my print was like FOUR INCHES TALL and now all her companions are at 10 inches just looking down at her like 🤨🤨
Haha yeah that does make things a bit awkward. 🤣 It's odd that they didn't all come from the artist in the same scale. But in any case, I'm really glad to this video helped you. 😊
I keep trying to input my own numbers cause I hella need the print to line up but it keeps resetting or changing the numbers and I have been frustrated trying to figure out how to turn it off..

No need to apologize. It takes a bit to figure this all out. Yep! Whether you're using an FDM/filament printer or a resin printer, your slicer should allow you to scale your models. Just don't make them bigger or smaller than what your printer can handle.
@SlicePrintRoleplay Would this software be better than Eleegons? I'm noticing that it's a bit rough to work with and her it looks smoother. The subscription worth it? And thank you for the reply!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!! I am new to lychee slicer, and resin printing. I know everything there is to know about filament printing, so you helped me immensely. I have been struggling with this for two weeks now.
I just found your Channel, I immediately subscribed, I'm new to 3D Printing, and I Recently got a Resin Printer, I understand I can Resize Miniatures from one Size to another, but, I just have one question, I can't seem to figure out Regarding Resizing. Im aware the bigger I scale the more Polygons will be Required for The Structure to keep The littlest of Details, due to reshaping of the Print, (Forgive me if I'm not accurately Right with Polygon naming or terminology) I wanna upscale a 32mm Miniature into a 6-10 inch Model, but I am Worried they will just look like Blobs of Details. Is there a way I can Restructure and Gain the Details without Losing the Detail? What kind of advice would you recommend? I don't even know where to Begin, when it comes to Restructuring the Finest bit of Details, what kind of Softwares would you recommend for a Beginer when it comes to this kind of Thing?
First off, thank you for subscribing. It's always appreciated! Now onto your question. When you scale a model up your slicer should give you a decent idea of what it will look like. That should give you some indication of how a model will look after it's been scaled up. You are correct that at a certain point when a model is scaled up the details will start to get a bit blocky. However, how big you can make a model before that becomes an issue will depend on each model. Some models have an incredible amount of detail and you can scale them up quite high before noticing any issues. Others will be more apparent at much smaller scales. So I'd scale up a model in your slicer and see how it looks. If you don't see any obvious issues maybe just try printing the head at that scale to confirm before committing to the whole model. As for remeshing a model. That can certainly be done, but it will take a fair bit of practice to learn the process. I'd recommend getting Blender for that. It's a really powerful free program. And it has a large user base so there are lots of tutorials available. If you want more specific help I'd highly encourage you to join the Slice Print Roleplay Facebook group and ask questions there. I'm lucky enough to have made friends with quite a few 3D artist and they are all great about giving advice. Let me know if I can do anything else to help you on your journey. I'm excited to see what you come up with. 😊
@@popeadam25000 Sure I'm happy to offer basic advice and or troubleshooting. However, if more than the basics are required I recommend joining my Patreon at the Red Scale Tier. That allows me to set time aside to offer you 1 on 1 3D printing support with much faster response times. You also get some other fun benefits too. 😊 Slice Print Roleplay links, linktr.ee/Sliceprintroleplay
I'll make you a deal. I'll try to get into the topic of a video in under 1:25 from now on. In return, you check the description for time stamps next time you're board with a video.
Absolutely fantastic. You make it so simple. I have been struggling with this for more than a month. THANKS!!!

Oh I totally understand that. I love being able to just drop in a reference model like this.
So glad it helped you. 😊

Thanks much hope to use this with my new printer to make terrain at 32mm too

I can not believe it took me this long. Thought I was gonna have to get a degree in 3d modeling just to scale these. Thank you so much!
That's awesome to hear! Glad this video helped make things easier to understand. 😊

Hmm that sounds very odd. Could you post a video in my Facebook group or Discord Server? I'd like to see what you're seeing.

Shout out to Dutchmogul for his scaling dummies, I use them all the time too.
That are fantastic!
I print alot of model size kits and I always Messner can tell what scale I should resale for models so they are more uniformed. This will help alot!
That's awesome, I'm glad to hear it helped you!

Sadly that's not really possible without gaining some 3D modeling skills.
