Hi Larian team and community!
I’d love to suggest an official, built-in way to export your Tav/Durge as a 3D-printable file (for example STL), ideally from within the game or via the BG3 Toolkit.
The general idea is a guided export that generates a model of your character. There might be an optional base (or no base). Choice of pose (even just a small set of 5–10 “hero poses” would be amazing). The output might be an STL file.
I am no expert but here is a way to monetize it:
1 - Free tier
Export Tav with common items (common armor/clothes, basic weapons, etc.)
Mod items export enabled (so modders and the community can still do their thing)
Optional base / no base
A couple of neutral poses
2 - Paid Tier 1 (Uncommon)
Uncommon gear appearances unlocked for export
More pose options / facial expression presets
3 - Paid Tier 2 (Rare)
Rare gear appearances
A few themed bases (e.g., camp, Underdark, city cobblestones)
4 - Paid Tier 3 (Very Rare)
Very rare gear appearances
Extra polish features like:
“Mini mode” (thicker details optimized for 28–32mm printing)
“Statue mode” (high-detail, larger scale)
Optional split into parts for easier printing/painting (head, arms, weapon, cape)
This would be awesome as a trophy for finishing the game (having your Tav on your shelf). Not to mention what a huge win for the D&D/tabletop community: people could bring their Tav as a mini, or paint a display bust. Having such a feature would keep things official and safe.
Thanks for reading
