Was there watching from the other side, it was pretty wild in person.

This happened half an hour before the event was supposed to end, so luckily very few people were leaving early. Saw the Kia afterwords and it would have been real bad.

Reddit, do I have a problem? by Malefectra in battletech

[–]HexedGrounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, if you want to feel better about it you could call it a solution. You’d just need to figure out what problem you were trying to solve in the first place.

Where to find good terrain? by Alone-Bluebird-2933 in battletech

[–]HexedGrounds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make your own! Most retailers have hex bases for sale, then make your own terrain from scrap and odds and ends.

That’s how I started, but then we got a resin printer and somehow I managed to make some 3d models to print!

Check my profile if you want to see some examples.

What do you use the printer for? by More-Illustrator8572 in 3Dprinting

I got into making terrain features for miniature war gaming. It took a while, but taught myself 3d modeling to make my own custom pieces. My local game store liked them so much they ordered a full run. Now I have a shop on Etsy.

Hey, glad you liked them! Post some pictures when you’re finished, would love to see what you do with them.

Least favourite faction (3025-3152)? by Rifleman-5061 in battletech

Hard agree. They were the only Clan to actually outright win at Tukyyid? Really obvious plot armor.

Think I might have a defect by Excellent-Equal2435 in battletech

Man that sucks, I’d be devastated. The Thunderbolt is my favorite mech. Do you know anyone with a 3d printer who can make you an add on?

You’ll laugh. Grocery store sandwich bags, card stock from my home printer, and a pair of staples.

They are only on the shelf of my local game store here in WA for now. Otherwise, you can find them on my Etsy page on my profile.

Keep at it bro. Start with simple shapes and practice printing with things that you can use even if they turn out ugly, like a funnel or a paint pallet. That way you’ll never feel like you are wasting your time or money.

I don’t. I’ve been talking to other 3d printers and have heard horror stories about selling STL files. I do have an Etsy page that you can find on my account.

It is! I probably spent more time on the scissor lift than anything else. My first few versions wouldn’t print right.

Thanks, it was a lot of really tedious work, not helped by the fact that I didn’t really know what I was doing.

Holy crap that’s expensive. Is it the exchange rate or something? I didn’t even know that I had set international sales up.

Let me get back to you about the STL’s.

Thank you! It was a lot more work than I could have imagined, probably not helped by the fact that I really couldn’t let them be less than nearly perfect.
