Brand New with a couple of questions about 3D printing

I have a slot car track with scenery. I want to print characters out for my track, mainly people of diffewrent types for the stands around the track. Obviously I have to paint them. How do I export just the file I need to print? Second, how do I scale them down to size to fit 1/32 scale?  (.375 inch or 9.525 mm = 1'0") Third question: where do I find normal dressed people I can pose. Tee shirts, jeans foot ball jerseys etc. My wife, daughters and grand daughters might not be too happy with ultra sexy, slutty vixens all around the track. Thogh steam punk would be kinda cool. So just looking for normal people, boys and girls to go with the parents.

 

Thanks for the assist with this. Can't wait to start learning this software.

    @atenciomike   I can't answer the scaling part, but I would look at the Genesis 3 clothes in general for family friendly attire. Just type "casual" in the search box (or words like T shirt, tee shirt, jeans.) 

    Patty Clothes, Abigail Outfit (and change out the shoes for sneakers), Adventure Outfit (jeans outfit), Casual Tourist, etc. When looking at products, think about kit bashing (mixing outfits.)

    use Meshlab to close holes and save as an stl for your printer.
