A nebulous Topic - with hints of 3D printing.
« on: September 19, 2014, 10:35:35 PM »
Hello fellow space-rats.

I've been working on some new terrain - nebulas and planets to be specific.

I've also been abusing my work 3D printers for bearing compasses, nova cannon blast markers and special orders markers. If anyone is interested in the 3D models for these I'll happily post them here.

The printer is a makerbot 2x replicator (medium res 15% infill), basic toothpaste model....sadly no good for ships but great for markers. I'm currently trying to print the NASA 3D model of the Moon ;D

Nebulas, planet, bearing compass and Mars class for size:

All ahead full. Ram them.

Nice work!

Jealous of access to 3D printer!! ;) My buddy was days from ordering one, then he was layed off! :(
Bigger is better. If bigger wasn't better, then it wasn't big enough!
