Alternativ BFG figures?
« on: January 26, 2015, 09:34:18 PM »
So i was looking around for BFG alternativs or substitutes to make a Ork battleship, and I came across this page shapeways.com...
Its a 3D printing page where people put up there 3D drawings and getting them printed and some of them have made some nice models.

They actually have some interesting ships like these:

https://www.shapeways.com/product/PGTTVKE5Y/bfg-heresy-marine-cruiser?li=related-items-solr&optionId=40874696

https://www.shapeways.com/product/A7UA9LVK3/heavy-transport-a-no-batteries-x-2?li=productGroup&optionId=41883330

Do any of you have any experience with this page and the products?

Shapeways is well known and reliable. It is a bit expensive I think. Plus you need to order the highest quality available. If I am right the user Malika on here has some of these models, or at least knows a bit about them.

Shapeways is a bit expensive, but their high quality material isn't their priciest material anymore, which is kinda weird when you think of it.

Also, Horizon seems to have guided you to the right thread, tons of cool stuff there. Besides some of my own stuff I can really recommend Battlegroup Helios' cruisers. :)
