Our Kickstarter is now live: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bm3d/3d-printable-us-vehicles-of-the-vietnam-war-for-wargames
I have only just gotten out of bed on the first day of the campaign and we are already about halfway to making our initial goal, which is very exciting.
All digital models available are pre-supported in 15mm (1/100), 20mm (1/72) and 28mm (1/56). For the $40 basic pledge you get:
• M113A1 ACAV
• M113A1 ACAV with 106mm M40 Recoilless Gun
• M113A1 (slick)
• M577
• M48A3
• M551 Sheridan
Plus, access to all the stretch goals as they unlock. Take a look at the kickstarter link above to discover the stretch goals
$80 gets you access to al the models plus their pre-stowed versions. There are commercial licences available too.

Crewmen were mentioned in another post but I don't see any on the KS or in the stretch goals.
Did they get dropped?

I would like to print these at 1/50.
I haven't got a printer yet but this one has good reviews - Elegoo Mars 2 Pro.
The bed is 129 x 80 x 160 mm - will that be enough to print the M48A3?
Thanks
Mick

Only a few hours to go. I have just pledged for the US$ 80 option as there are many nice vehicles now.
The Kickstarted finishes tomorrow Mon, March 29 2021 7:02 AM CEST.

Thought I would add some shots of my game I did the other weekend with the models painted up.

Mick, Yes the Elegoo Mars 2 Pro will not be big enough to print the M48A3. Everything you see in the Kickstarter was printed on a Anycubic Photon mono which is the same price range. It as a print size of 227mm(L)*222mm(W)*383mm(H).
Thanks Brad

Some of the models have crew in the copula. The m48, M113 ACAV, Mini Gun turret, M163 all have crew members for the stowage pledge level. We wanted to do more crew but time and other limitations restricted us.
Thanks

The response about the crew would've been valuable before the KS closed.
If I knew I would've pledged the $80 level.
