Hi everyone,

As in the title, I would start to learn how to design models for 3D printing and the basics about 3D printing, but I'm a total noob.

Do you have any suggestions about where to start?

Thanks everybody

First, what kind of models are you curious about making? Big, small, decorative, springy, strong? Cosplay helmets, bike parts, tabletop miniatures?

This will inform whether you should look at tutorials for FDM (filament) printing or MSLA/DLP (resin) printing.

I would like to make kid's cartoon characters (forx example: Bluey, Miracolous, Disney..), about 6-8 cm of height at max so I can put them on the decorative cakes for the photos.
