This sort of comes across as a commercial, but I'm just ecstatic about what he provided to start this project.
Its sounds like he plans to do more, but he hasn't had an update since December 2024. I need way more than this. So where to find my STLs?
At this point I had 4 main resources.
Yeggi searches multiple websites that have STLs for free and/or purchase.
Cults3d where I found Tonoborus, but many other great STLs.
thingiverse Many free STLs here.
MyMiniManufacture Not very many free STls, but lots of quality ones for a price.
Many of the mini's I found on these resources don't exist there anymore, at least not by the same seller//provider. GW is not happy if their mini's are on these sites, and those STLs get removed quickly. I find searching with the term "oldhammer" helps. Many of the sellers use misleading names and images to disguise what they are actually selling. This helps them stay up on these sites longer, but makes it harder to tell if what you are downloading is what you are after.
I know I found the classic plastic Beastmen /w Helberd model on one of these sites. I shrank it down to 67% of normal size in Blender and it printed out great.
The model's head is a little mis-shappen, but free is free. Also one Beastmen's hoof didn't print at all, so I just sculpted it in green stuff.
Update on 8/2/25; Since I made this post Tonoborus started to provide a free Beastmen model, similar to the one I used here, but slightly better detail (the heads not mishappen). You can find it here.

| Tonoborus's Beastmen. |
I have a huge Beastmen Warhammer Fantasy army. I have them all painted up like Polar Bears (White Fur & Black Skin). All the leather they wear is made up to look like human skin. Ever care to see a Cow get even for that leather jacket? So I kept the paint scheme going here.
44 monsters painted, 204 monsters 3D printed, of 558 needed as of January 18, 2025.
That's all for this post, may your lantern always stay lit.
DeMagic Tutor out.
