I found some pictures of my beautiful, poorly painted, Balrog that I had as a child. It broke while moving to a new home (didn't package it at all). I eventually threw it away. I printed a new, much smaller one, out of nostalgia. The sword broke, but I will glue it together. I am by no means an expert painter (haven't painted one in like 15 years), I am no expert in 3D modelling, but I was able to use some AI to generate a 3D model from pictures of the miniature, fix the wings manually and generated another one just for the head itself (as it was terrible from AI), and I am no expert in 3D printing either, I just managed to print it in 2 attempts with a cheap resin 3D printer. As for the size: I am way too lazy to do it in 2 pieces (or more) and I can't trust my printer's consistency to make the pieces fit together. Apologies for having such a crappy camera, apologies for no sanding/filing/fixing the sword and apologies for no primer (can't really see any detail this way), I think my girlfriend has a white primer. What do you guys think? Would you guys want to see how it ends up? Would you accept to play a MESBG game with an AI 3D scanned&printed balrog if it had the correct base diameter?
