Beautiful; the tea dip really helps show off the details.
Did you have milk and sugar in it?

Yes, I first played from the white box in 1979. I have suffered for my art for many years, finally scoring a woman who loves playing just as much as I do. (You can't have her she's MINE!!!)
No milk or sugar. Since the rules suggest not using Shapeways items for food applications, I used a cheap teabag from the communal stack at work then dumped it afterwards.
I don't know if it is the High Detail or not. I had to wait a while between ordering and arriving, so I probably either just missed or just made the tail end of all that.

Thanks a lot for those photos, Gumball, glad you like them !
I didn't had the time to rework and re print in high detail all my miniatures during the high detail material special offer, and i hope they will reintroduce it soon. The quality difference is very noticeable between the two settings. ( i've just ordered a couple of my last models, and the results were really great.)
I still have some problems taking good photos of my previous miniatures ( i'm really retarded with my camera...have a very dark house and the stepping effect on some models is really not photogenic...), would you mind if i take one or two of your pictures to show up on my shapeway page ? ( mentioning your name, of course.)
Now, all my hopes are aimed at very high detail wax printing, which looks like being the next step at shapeways ( at least the last blog post is very encouraging.)
Last question  As a D&D and boardgame player, what kind of miniatures would you like to find on shapeways ? There's already thousand of figurines available everywhere, but what would make a 3d printed one unique and relevant ?

Sure, you can use my photo. If you want, I'll take individual pics of each to make it easier. I'll post in a day or so.
You know... if you wanted to provide me with copies of your mini's, I'd do real good photos of them for you... 
As for what I want in minis, that's hard. What I want is conditional on what I need for the next game but sexy women are always good.
If you really want to know, I'd say go over to
http://enworld.org/
and post in the forum there. They would probably give you a better direction.
