Title: (KICKSTARTER) Pop-up Terrain. Stonehaven Miniatures
Post by: beefcake on 11 June 2014, 08:49:08 PM: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2087444096/pop-up-miniature-terrain-kit

These look great and are a really excellent price. They take resin minis on the top of them well but I don't think they would stand a Metal Giant on top. Still a great concept especially for the fact that you can fold it up and store it safely in small places.

Post by: robh on 11 June 2014, 09:07:44 PM: Neat idea, but $35 for the full kit plus an estimated $54 shipping :o The actual cost of which you don't find out until after they have taken your pledge money,

Umm, no thanks.

Post by: beefcake on 12 June 2014, 07:13:23 AM: :o Didn't notice that. Not for me then. Great concept still. PDF Version might not be so bad. Print and maybe mount on dome MDF.

EDIT: Actually after a second look it's $54 for 2 packs of it (or assembled which is all gone) and $25 for one pack. Which makes me wonder, why not just but 2 packs with 2 different accounts and pay 2x $25 shipping? That would save a little cash.

Post by: ced1106 on 16 June 2014, 07:56:32 AM: Internationals will probably just want the $15 PDF level.

Also, DriveThruRPG has PDF paper terrain, with many free samples. They currently have a 10th anniversary sale on bundles.

For US domestics, the KS has passed the free Norse village set! Six sets for $32 printed! You still need to provide foamcore and assemble.

Post by: WitchfinderGeneral on 25 June 2014, 03:49:55 PM: I'm usually not a huge fan of paper buildings or print-yourself maps and tiles. And I will hardly use any of those terrain as I have already tons of better stuff here. Still I like the "pop-up" idea very very much (I always loved pop-up books too!), it looks good in the video and the artwork is nice. And for sure it's going to be fun to build it with the kids! The postage is a bummer (for people overseas) so I'm in for the PDFs.

3 days left for kickstarting!

Post by: Cherno on 25 June 2014, 05:01:20 PM: I think this terrain fits if it is used exclusively, with cardboard standees in the same sepia hand drawn style, to create small, focused scenarios that have a diorama quality to them. I don't think it would looks good mixed with normally painted miniatures and other terrain pieces.

Somehow it reminds me of that great terrain table I saw here long ago that looked like a 1920s German Expressionist cinema movie, I wish I could find the thread.
