Tinchen’s 3D Art has launched a Kickstarter campaign titled Fantasy Elve Warriors V1 – Minifigures Pinup STL Files, offering high-resolution STL files for pinup-style elven warrior miniatures optimized for 3D printing. The press distribution, dated Feb 5, 2026 from Alveslohe, Schleswig-Holstein, says the campaign is now live on Kickstarter and highlights early-bird packages without listing pledge details.

The project comes from German digital sculptor Kay-Henning Brandel, who is described in the campaign materials as the creative force behind Tinchen’s 3D Art and "a growing brand in the fantasy 3D printing community." The IssueWire release notes that Brandel is "Based in Gemeinde Klein Rönnau, Germany" and that his work "blends traditional fantasy themes with modern artistic expression, bringing unique, collectible models to life in STL format."

The campaign copy emphasizes visual and hobby appeal. "This original collection features a lineup of pinup-style Elven warrior miniatures designed with intricate detail, dramatic poses and high-resolution STL files for 3D printing," the press text states, adding that "Each model is an expressive blend of beauty, strength and fantasy flair ideal for tabletop RPGs, hobby painting or personal collections." For painters and kit-bashers, digital STLs offer immediate access to model files for custom scaling, conversion, and multi-part printing, while 3D print enthusiasts can adapt supports and layer settings for resin or filament workflows.

Tinchen’s digital offering joins an established market of elf miniatures sold as cast kits by other vendors. Retail examples include Artel "W" Miniatures' "Warrior Elf," listed on sale at $9.59, down from $15.99, with specifications such as 28mm scale, 34mm to the eyes and 36mm total height, a 12-part kit with optional heads and weapons, high quality resin and a 25mm base included; the sculptor is Sergey Rynkov. Marketplace listings also show broad demand for elf models: product names such as Reaper Miniatures Marlanay Female Elf Archer 3288, Reaper Miniatures Nimbar, Elf Necromancer 3860 and Dark Heaven Legends (Aeowyn Silverwood 4017) appear in retailer catalogs alongside enthusiastic ratings. As one retail blurb puts it, "Elf miniatures are on sale now at Dark Elf Dice! We stock an amazing selection of elf minis for table top role playing games."
