Resin 3D printing for fine detail
- Smooth surface, no visible layer lines
- White, grey, black or clear resin
- Miniatures, busts, small figurines
- On quote, shipped across France
For a miniature, a bust or a small figurine, resin gives a smooth surface and detail that filament cannot reach. Send us your file or your idea and we will reply with a quote.
Resin or filament: which one to choose?
Both have their place in the workshop. It depends on the size of the part and what it has to withstand.
Our FDM or SLA guide compares both technologies in detail. If you are unsure, describe your part and we will recommend what suits it, even if that is filament.
| Resin | Filament (PLA, PETG, TPU) | |
|---|---|---|
| Surface | Smooth straight off the machine | Layer lines visible up close |
| Detail | Very fine: engravings, textures, small faces | Good from about ten centimetres |
| Strength | More brittle, especially thin parts | More impact resistant |
| Size | Small and medium parts | Large parts, assemblies |
| Use | Display, collection, tabletop games | Functional parts, outdoors, cosplay |

How a resin order works
- 1
You send the file or the idea
An STL, a photo, a description. No file? We can model the part.
- 2
We check and quote
Size, fragile areas, orientation: we tell you what will work and send a quote.
- 3
Printing, washing and curing
The part is printed, washed, UV cured, then its supports are removed.
- 4
Collection or shipping
Collect from the workshop in Toulouse, or have it carefully packed and shipped.
Resin 3D printing shipped across France
Our workshop is in Toulouse, but most of our resin parts leave as parcels. Send your file from the website, we reply with a quote, then the part is printed, washed, cured, cleaned of its supports and carefully packed.
We ship with Mondial Relay or Colissimo anywhere in mainland France: Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Lille, Nantes, Strasbourg, Montpellier, Nice and every other town. In Toulouse you can also collect the part from the workshop.
What to know before choosing resin
We don't paint. The part is delivered raw, in a single colour. Its smooth surface makes a very good base if you want to paint it yourself.
Resin is more brittle than filament. A thin sword or a sharp point can break if dropped, and we will flag it before printing. It is made for display, not for mechanical parts or for staying in the sun, which yellows and weakens it. For those uses, filament remains the right choice.
Frequently asked questions
Do you really print in resin?
Yes. As well as filament (PLA, PETG, TPU), we print in resin the parts that need a smooth surface and very fine detail.
Can I order resin online?
Yes: on the Order page, choose “Resin”, upload your file and pick the colour. There is no automatic price for resin: we check the part and email you a quote.
What is the difference with filament printing?
Resin gives a smooth surface and much finer detail, but it is more brittle and suited to fairly small parts. Filament is stronger and suits large and functional parts.
Do you paint resin figurines?
No, we don't paint. The part is delivered raw, in a single colour, and its smooth surface makes a very good base if you want to paint it yourself.
Is resin strong?
Less so than filament: it can break if dropped, especially thin parts. It suits display and carefully handled tabletop games, not mechanical parts.
Can I send my own STL file?
Yes. We check it before printing and flag any parts that are too thin or too fragile.
Which resin colours do you offer?
We print in ABS-Like resin in white, grey, black or clear. The part is delivered in a single colour, unpainted.
What is the maximum size of a resin part?
223 × 126 × 230 mm in a single print, on our Anycubic Photon P1. A larger part can be split and assembled, or printed in filament.
Do you ship resin parts anywhere in France?
Yes, with Mondial Relay or Colissimo anywhere in mainland France. In Toulouse you can also collect it from the workshop.
