A modern Prometheus

"No man chooses evil because it is evil, he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks." (Mary Shelley, Frankenstein, 1818)


With the creature and the bride, the little project is now complete. For the first time I made all the figures and props with the Resindrucker, only the base plate came from the good old filament printer. The 3D models are all available for free at MyMiniFactory. I still have great respect for the resin print, the stuff is unfortunately not harmless in the liquid state and you can not just print (as with filament), but must be meticulously observed any safety measures, so as not to irreversibly damage themselves and the environment in the long term. Once cured with UV light, resin loses its terror completely. The current resin printers make things much easier and fluffier to handle, but filament is just child's chocolate in comparison. However, one is rewarded for the effort with models that are hardly distinguishable from industrially produced figures and often enough would not even be available in stores because they are "too niche". The small Frankenstein project is then again the dusty corner of the niche in the niche of the niche.
The figures will certainly end up in a small one-shot scenario on the gaming table, but were primarily for me as a fan of the story of the "modern Prometheus" a matter of the heart. And if you haven't read Mary Shelley's novel yet, you should do so. It's worth it.
