Love the mile fort.
Very well done.
It looks even better painted!

That's marvellous, will it be available and from where?

I try not use 3rd party selling websites as they take 20-40% so the price of the file/print is more expensive etc. Send me a PM if you are interested in the Files or printed copies.

So during COVID lockdowns I have not been near my printer sadly, however this has changed due to work recalling me.

I was asked to design and print a Train Station for someone, this is the project in the design phase and since these photos where taken I have done some work to the roof sections and added on some ramps at either end.

Stay tuned for photos of the project printed in 20mm (the scale that the guy was after).





When asked to design and print ruined buildings I alway like designing it in full then damaging it and adding the holes etc. it makes it easier to do, well it does in my head.

So after many many hours of printing the choice words when the printing started to fail etc, I have now finished and printed a ruined version of the Train station, it was printed in 20mm but the original design is 28mm.

I hope you guys like it!!

Ruined Version - draft, this was it before adding detail and some TLC.

Looking great. I was gifted with an Ender-3 six months ago, and tinkering with the printer is a totally different hobby from printing things with it.

yes it is, but once you get the settings and printer right then printing becomes addictive. If you are ever after files please let me know  ;)

Thank you, They are slowly getting more and more detailed as I get better with it all.
