I wanna make a whole custom warhammer army with a 3d printer.

LoL too bad 3D printers freak out at the amount of fine details we Zbrush artists put into our models. On the bright side we have an awesome new decimation plugin! Hopefully we'll be able to get the printing requirements right & still create a fine amount of detail soon. I can't wait to make some 3D prints of my Zsculpts! We can FINALLY export into the 2 native file formats too. Expect plenty of Uber sweet 3D prints in the near future!

That my fav one :D So how does this work? I mean, I saw how the printer works but it's expensive. So do you just send these guys your 3D CAD file or whatever, and pay them online to print it? How much does it cost? I'd love to make a Goblin.
