Did you make the character in bits (individual printing pieces) or sculpt and then break him up/retopo' him somehow. That's the trick with 3d printing isn't it....no holes?

Keeping the details with dynamesh depends on the size of your geo also. So if your mesh is really small in z brush you will have to have a high setting in your dynamesh (goes up to 4000... usually around 1500 to 2000 is enough to keep the details I find). If your mesh is larger you will not need to have your settings up as high to get the same level of detail once you dynamesh (500 to 1000 seems like it works). If I have some free time I'll make like a 5 min capture so you can see it in action.
This is another project that will be printed in the near future as well. and is all dynameshed.
