3D Printable Terrain & Miniature Kickstarters – February 2019
Since they are similar, I am now linking my Patreon List to this page. Along with Kickstarter, we have a number of great community members that post great new content regularly.
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. Click here for January’s Kickstarters. Click Here for March 2019 Kickstarters.
Note: FINISHED Kickstarters are at the bottom of the list.
Stormguard: 3D printable Terrain for RPG and Wargames
This Kickstarter has 7 days to go. 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.

Sci-Fi Desert Trading Post – 3D Printable Terrain
This Kickstarter has 8 days to go. This is the second Kickstarter from War Scenery. This one features a very Star Wars/Future Modern design. This would be great for Legion as well as other sci-fi games that lack that grimdark aesthetic like Infinity.

This Kickstarter has 9 days to go. This is the second Kickstarter by Terrain 4 Print. This turns a few of the ruins he has released into a full blown ruined city.

Starship III – Fully 3D Printable 28mm Spaceships
This Kickstarter will be in LATE PLEDGE soon. As the title says, this is the third Starship Kickstarter that 2nd Dynasty has done. This one features fully printable ships with full interiors for Roleplaying games or as scenery for a war game. They would also make some pretty amazing objective markers for a war game. I’ll admit, I am seriously thinking about firing up a Starfinder game, to use this ship in.

The Skyless Realms – 3D Printable Tabletop Models
This Kickstarter has finished. This is a fantasy niche that has not been tackled before, it’s Dark Elf terrain. This is a beautifully created world he has designed and features a new piece called “Dungeon Sticks”. It reminds me of scatter blocks, with a touch of tiles without the tiles. This is a different concept that combines a battlemat with scatter terrain to build the dungeon instead of straight up dungeon tiles. Lots of innovation, and collaboration in this Kickstarter

Kingdoms of Hell
This Kickstarter has finished. Kingdoms of Hell is something different. First of all, it is a lot of awesome looking miniatures and gaming terrain. Next, it is a Role Playing Game using Ill Gotten Games’ D6 Modular Engine. Finally, it is ALSO a skirmish war game using the miniatures you print, or have laying around to form bands of demons to duke it out. It’s also cross-compatible with the RPG system. This is quite a bit of content for one Kickstarter.

WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE A 3D PRINTER FOR THIS KICKSTARTER TERRAIN?
For those of you in this boat, I created a guide for those that don’t own a 3D Printer. If you are looking to pick up a 3D Printer, check out my 3D Printer Buying Guide.
Not affiliated with him but Diego Pisa Artworks whom i’ve backed a few projects of in the past currently has a couple .stl models in his current Epic Stuff Library vol 4: D&D 5e/Pathfinder adaptable kickstarter going on right now. Easy to miss but it’s only $1usd for a pretty cool monster and a tomb.

Thanks for that. Not really 3D Printing centric, but I added it to the list. 🙂 You are correct, $1 isn’t bad for that. Maybe that will help get others to add some models to their Kickstarters and get more interest in 3D Printing. And, for $1, I backed it too. 🙂
