I have found lots of female, fantasy, and sci fi figure files on the net. I have not found historical figure files. Does anyone know of any people or companies making historical figures from the medieval age to Napoleonic era figures in 3D for printing? Thanks in advance.

I have a friend with a 3d printer and must say after searching thoroughly I have yet to find many display scale producers that traffic in .stl files. Hellbender has been mentioned. There’s Minormous that has some nice Roman bust and figures (link below). The ranges are pretty nice but only offer a couple of choices. There are a couple of game scale producers like Northern Crusade and Reconquer Designs. The ranges are magnificent but designed for gaming scale so 28-32mm. I really question how well they can be upscaled to at least 54mm. I’ve seen a couple of examples and things like the mail armor look way off. Display scale historicals are so niche these days that I just don’t see many with the talent bothering to sell just the files.

Thank you very much. I got a mounted figure and will give it a try.

Here are a couple of amazing figures:

Yes forgot about this creator. Another very rare example of a highly skilled artist selling historical display figures in stl. Not to mention figures representing bronze age Levantine people. I gotta get some of these and ask my friend to print them for me. Assuming they work for representing Canaanites of the Bible. I think Aamu was a blanket term in Egypt all the people from that region.
 
Thank you very much. I got the slinger , Chieftain, and Aamu Woman with loose hair. I have printed out the slinger but had an issue with my printer so need to reprint his arms. From what I can see its awesome work. I hope to do some painting while on Christmas leave and have the slinger, a Roman horseman, Frankenstein, and a figure from Fallout to do. Thank you everyone for the links and advice. I'll be posting pictures here shortly.

Me too, I got these three figures. And I agree, among available digital historical figures, they are top! I printed them in 120mm size.
