Pickman, Shape Knight of Sangfielle
This is a fan sculpt of one of my favorite characters from the Friends at the Table podcast, played by Jack de Quidt.
Pickman is large Caprak (goat person). Her armor is crafted from train scraps that she has salvaged on various train hunts (yes, she does hunt living trains that exist in Sangfielle). She wields a blunderbuss adjacent shotgun, that was also taken from one of these "Ghost" trains. Within her armor is actually a furnace, in which the magic of the "shape"(The podcast's name for the network of living trains) can feed off of the energy of whatever is thrown into the furnace). Jack's thoughtfulness and creativity soared in creating Pickman, and I just had to take a stab at making a fan sculpt of her. I hope you like it!

There are some very small details on this model that will not come out great on an FDM printer, so I recommend printing it exclusively in resin. If you only have access to FDM, then I would just size up each of the files to a reasonable point.
I also recommend printing the character in clear or clear/gray resin, and then taking a tiny piece of painter's tape, cover the wisp of smoke coming off of the Cigar, Then spay the print with paint primer. That way the smoke remains translucent when fully painted, similar to the rendering shown above.
Print all three files, Glue the printed "railway Insert" file into printed "Base_Empty", Then you can glue the character's feet and cape, onto the "railway insert".
The reason the Base_Empty and Railway Insert are separated, is to give painters an easier time painting just the base insert, without getting paint all over the base pedestal (Base_Empty), prior to gluing everything together.
The Character's lifted foot, should align with the indent on the train rail (railway insert)
Happy printing!
