Unfortunately, my access to these 3d printers is far too limited and infrequent at this time.

Eventually, we'd love to make/offer some nice terrain pieces and bits for other players, but I'm guessing that is still 1-2 years away for us. As always, the number of things I want to do greatly outweighs what I can actually get done:o lol

Good plan, I heartily approve.
That timetable however, needs massaging, requiring, as it does, patience on my part.

Your two impediments are likely time, and/or money.

If it is Time, then it would expedient to turn operational control of the Phipps Cartel to Mila.
As long as it doesn't interfere with her excellence in scholastic endeavours, of course.

If it is Money, think Kickstarter.
Perhaps a modest one to fund your various DUST building enhancements.
Those have very real potential to be oversubscribed in short order.

I'll back any play Phipps & Daughter choose to make.

I spent some time designing new sides/backs/tops and assembling the pieces on the computer before printing the next wave...

Stunning!!

You're improving by leaps & bounds!  The progress is phenomenal!!

Still missing a few minor points though...

Chief amongst them being:

Get wid d'program hear Dave!!

Dere IS chumps would buy dis hear stuph!!



Kickstart it PLEASE!!
Before somebody else does, and not so well as you obviously can!!

The design work is simply superb,
with the forethought, planning & modularity needed for a successful product line.

The Phipps Cartel already command a powerful distribution network,


http://store.pulpalley.com/default.asp

Given the respected brand name,



a widespread & LOYAL following,



international appeal,





growing popular demand,



and a timely opportunity,



you'd wait?



C'mon Dave, give the Woild what it wants!!

Well said Valerik

The fire escape is pretty damn good but putting the windows in turns it from a box (all beit a good looking box) into a building

Well done

dave - i think there's several oversees companies that will take 3d designs and print them relatively cheaply.  but you probably already know that.   just selfishly trying to get all your great work available.

Thanks so much for the encouraging comments. Glad you are liking them.

I think the trick for us is coming up with a way to produce these at a high quality and a reasonable price.

Now that we have some good prototypes, we can start shopping around.  ;)


THANKS

That is looking really fine.

I presume you'll be printing a master to pull a mold from?

Yup, that looks like one of the better options at the moment.
