Terrain and base grass/reed tuft

thingiverse

Print out some quick bases for your miniatures! I recommend a raft as that will make it easier to handle them and safer when cutting. Place your knife tool under the open dome at one end, then cut off the tops of your grass so the cap can be removed easily. Once glued to a base, you can separate and spread out the pieces. Trim some stems to different heights to add convincing variation. You can increase the scale and make them longer, wider or thinner by adjusting the settings, but I've only tested these using a .2 nozzle. If you use a .4 nozzle, be sure to use the one labeled correctly, as that is the smallest size you can print with that nozzle. I came up with the idea of making 3D printed grass tufts for basing miniatures after seeing some other designs online. Two examples that caught my eye were the Hairy Lion (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2007221) and Printable Grass (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3504830).
