Modifying a Free File

June 4, 2020

I had a pretty good idea what I was looking for so my first stop was a google search for an STL file. I knew I wasn’t going to find exactly what I wanted but I found a good starting point on Thingyverse.

This file was free to download in STL format which I imported into Zbrush. Looking down on the model from above I began by adjusting the proportions to match the dimensions on the card token. At the centre of the token you can see the square column base which measures 26mm to a side. This at least was a solid point to measure from so I made my base the same.

I’d settled on 13cm as a good hight to clear the head of the Demon while still giving the impression he was filling up the room. After adjusting the height down I had a much chunkier looking column that was more suitable for my purposes. I also raised up the square column base to further enhance the chunkier appearance I was going for and add a little more stability.
