3D PRINTABLE TERRAIN KICKSTARTERS – February 2018
One of the great things about our 3D printers, is the 3D terrain we can create. This is one of the primary reasons I purchased a 3D printer. Without high-quality files with which to print, the printers are kind of useless. I’m going to be listing Kickstarters by the time left in their campaigns. If I missed any, please let me know. You can find these companies and more in our 3D Terrain directory. Finally, if you are looking at getting into printing terrain, check out this guide on getting your first 3D Printer.

Steve Hampson is putting together a video on sculpting some dwarven figures. He’ll be using Sculptris to show off its capabilities and also release the Dwarves he designs as .STL files. If you are interested in making your own miniatures, this is a Kickstarter for you to check out.
ShipWorks 3d Printable Ship Terrain

ScatterBlocks
This Kickstarter has 23 days to go. This is very different take on a modular terrain system. This one is built around the dry-erase battle mats that are found on RPG tables. Instead of building a dungeon with tiles, you put these blocks around to form the walls and use the battle mat as the floor. Initially there are Stone, Wood and Technology texture blocks.

WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE A 3D PRINTER FOR THIS KICKSTARTER TERRAIN?
For those of you in this boat, I created a guide on how to get prints done if you don’t own one, plus a selection of printers that would be great for this kind of work.
Hey Kevin, Chris with The Dragon Workshop here. If you’d like more info or to do an interview, etc. Please let me know.
Best wishes, Chris
