Christmas Gnome Set 2 - gnomes, grinch, krampus & holiday characters

The Christmas Gnome Set 2 from Cubisten Lab expands your collection with six carefully sculpted mini figures, each approximately 6 cm tall and featuring distinct shapes, clean details, and unique character expressions.
Every figure has its own silhouette, personality, facial features, accessories and hat style.

The set includes:

• a cheerful reindeer gnome
• a classic gnome holding a star
• a detailed reindeer-style gnome
• a traditional Santa gnome
• a mischievous Grinch-style character
• a striking and mystical Krampus

All models are designed to be printed standing, which ensures the best possible detail reproduction for faces, beards, coats, hats and antlers.
Because of the fine sculpted elements, supports are required for all figures to achieve clean, reliable prints.

The figures can be scaled to any desired size without losing important details — whether you want tiny Advent calendar miniatures or larger decorative display figures.

For optimal results, we strongly recommend using the official Cubisten Lab 3MF print profile.
This profile has been tested, optimized and approved by us to provide maximum detail quality at 6 cm and at scaled sizes.

The figures shown in the images were hand-painted with acrylic paints to demonstrate the full visual potential.
This set is the perfect extension to Christmas Gnome Set 1, completing the gnome family with six new expressive characters.

Use Cases – Perfect For

✔ Christmas decorations (table, shelf, windowsill)
✔ Winter village scenes & dioramas
✔ Miniature collections
✔ Advent calendar filler items
✔ Gift ideas & small presents
✔ Christmas markets & sales sets
✔ Painting projects for hobby artists
✔ ideal extension to Christmas Gnome Set 1

Each of the six figures was designed with a focus on:

• clean, distinct painting zones
• strong silhouettes
• expressive faces
• sculpted beard structures
• unique hat shapes and accessories
• iconic features (reindeer antlers, Grinch-like expression, Krampus character)

The entire set is Bambulab-friendly, featuring stable base shapes and clear contours for reliable printing.

A key advantage of this model set:
The figures can be scaled freely — smaller or significantly larger — without losing essential details.
This makes them suitable for both miniature prints and large decorative focal points.

In combination with Christmas Gnome Set 1, you can create a complete festive gnome world with high decorative impact.
