Ultra Generic Person Scale Figure for Models

thingiverse

I was unable to find suitable human forms to utilize as an architecture model, so I took the initiative to create my own within SketchUp. This allowed me to produce 5 identical people side by side, all measuring approximately 1 cm in height, which were printed in gray Makerbot PLA. I deliberately deviated from exact proportions to achieve a more general and subtly stylized appearance that would not detract from the overall model's design, while still maintaining an understanding of its scale. It is advisable to utilize lighter neutral colors like gray or white when utilizing these figures for a model. This will result in a clearer visualization of the architecture's design without any distractions. The figure's broad flat sides are specifically designed to allow it to be printed without requiring additional supports, but I highly recommend including a raft during the printing process.
