miniatures, scaled down to 30% (big weeping angel is 50%), 0.8mm thick wall (2 perimeters), no infill, layer height 0.2mm (angels are 0.1mm), printing speed between 30 and 40mm/s.
Models used :
and about 6 tries of:

btw, the screw in some of the pictures is an M3x8, just for scale
I misinterpreted your original post on this topic!
