3D Printable Terrain & Miniature Kickstarters – May 2019

One of the great things about our 3D printers, is the 3D terrain and miniatures we can print.  This is one of the primary reasons I personally purchased my 3D printer.  Please let me know if I am missing any campaigns.  You can find these companies and more in the 3D Terrain directory.

Stormguard - 3D printable Terrain for RPG and Wargames

Stormguard Ruins

Ruins right off the printer.

This Kickstarter is in LATE PLEDGE.  RM Studios Terrain has been working on this one for some time.  We started talking on the first of September when he had some drawings and a grand idea.  Five months later, and Stormguard has arrived.  Now, I have printed a couple of pieces (and currently have one on the bed).  These look awesome, and print really well.  This is a broken city that is very Tolkienesque.  I’ve recently been playing Shadow of War and some of these pieces look like they would fit right into the ruins in there.  If you need a fantasy themed table, this is probably one of best starting points out there.

What if I don’t have a 3D Printer?

I created a guide for those that don’t own a 3D Printer. It goes through several places that you can get prints done.  I plan to expand it as new ideas come my way.
