Hollow Medium size creature base and carry plate

thingiverse

I wanted a small holder for dnd minis. That way I could bring an encounter to the table on a carry plate. This project includes the carry plate, and the custom hollow mini bases I use. There is a flying and regular mini base. For my minis I use a base that I've made to have a hollow bottom. These hollow bottoms are great if you want to be able to sit on irregular terrain pieces. They also have a lip up top that I use for helping to contain basing material (dirt, rocks, glue, etc). I think they look nice. With the carry plate, they actually sit comfortably inside 8 recessed spots. I've tried them out on minis I've printed with paint, and it works well. I made sure on the recessed spots I gave a margin around where the minis sit in. I wanted a carry plate that most folk with small printers, resin or otherwise could print easily, while still holding a decent amount of minis. This plate fits on a Mars2 pro resin printer really easily. It's 64x120mm. Roughly 4.4 tall. It's pretty sturdy too! Can fit a few on a fdm printer as well, with some supports around the lip. The carry plate itself has a small lip around it for easy pickup. It's been designed in Blender and confirmed to be manifold in Netfabb. I plan to print a few of these guys.
