I am making a z scale train layout, and would like to make some people
(they have to be 1/200th scale, which would be about 9 mm.  I have no
problem with scaling part, but I am having trouble finding any ready made
people.

I have found some taekwondo figurines, but I would like just a little more
detail.

Anyone, seen a module somewhere that might fit the bill?

I suspect your problem will be fragility even with a commercial printer.

http://www.makehuman.org/

may be a better starting point, although it's much more oriented towards
rendering/animation.

Jerry, have you explored Thingiverse? You might find at least a partial
solution there.

yep. but I didn't put the right words in the search box.
because of this thread, it clicked that I should just put the word "human"
in there instead of people like I did before.
and do you know? I found something that would work.

But I did like the make human thing too.

thanks to both of y'all.
