What do you usually look for when choosing a 3D printing service? I'm trying to figure out which factors matter most — price, material options, print quality, or customer support. Any tips from experience?

I’ve been tinkering with 3D printing for a few years now, mostly terrain and board game accessories, but I recently decided to try my hand at a detailed character model. The file quality makes or breaks the entire experience—a poorly supported model with bad geometry can ruin a weekend and waste a ton of filament. I found that sticking to specialized platforms like https://www.gambody.com/ saves a lot of that frustration because their models are specifically optimized for FDM and resin printing, not just sculpted for a screen. It’s worth checking the user comments and photos on any listing before you buy, as that usually gives you a realistic preview of the support removal process and the final scale. Have you printed much from them before, or are you just starting to look into it?
