the amount of polygons it has, is a pain to try to print, and I just want to know how to reduce the polygon count while also keeping close to the same quality it already has

Here is the link to the page, if it helps at all

go in blender, add decimate modifier

set ratio to maybe .3 to keep 30% of the current face-count

apply

that easy !

it shouldnt lose any visible details with 30% but if you happen to see any changes that you dont like, just go with a higher ratio

Thanks!
