Hello fellow terrain enjoyers,

I've just ordered Bambu Lab A1 printer specifically for printing terrain for MESBG (Middle-Earth Strategy Battle Game) and looking for some recommendations.

After quite a bit of research here's what I found :

1. There are a lot of STL creators. A LOT.
2. Quality STLs are much easier to find these days.
3. Most of the terrain STLs are in a 'heroic' scale.
4. Most of the terrain STLs have doors that are too narrow for 25mm bases (the most common size in the game).

So far, the most "realistic" terrain I found is 'King and Country' (or Noman) collection from Printable Scenery, but most of the doors are under 20mm wide. Increasing scale is not an option. Their 'Shadowfey' campaign has buildings with doors wide enough for 25mm bases, but they're sort of 'heroic' scale and don't match the "true" scale of MESBG miniatures. I also saw some really cool terrain from Terrain Essentials, but it's VERY 'heroic' scale. Conquest Creation has Kingdom Of Saxonia that was made specifically for 25mm bases, and it looks great but lacks details — a lot of repetitive constructions. Their other sets are not too impressive.

TLDR : Looking for 'realistic fantasy' terrain (not 'heroic' scale) that will accommodate 25mm bases.

Hi all does anyone know where the hills in the Maps Mercer short came from or something similar?

Don't know if they are even 3d printed but would love something similar

Thank you in advance

One of the things I like most about printing is terrain, but I do a lot to reduce the infill or it still seems like doing any construction will take me a roll of filament, not to mention the absurd printing time, would anyone have any tips? how to deal with this?

Hey guys, I need help, I'm going to start selling my 3D prints, and I'm having problems with the Ultimaker cura, I'd like to know if anyone is having similar problems. Well, I ended up getting discouraged because the price of the parts was getting too high, it would be unsustainable to compete in the current market with that, what happens is that the ultimaker cure time estimate is always wrong and says it will take much longer than it actually would, I wonder if the estimate of material spent is also incorrect and could this be one of the reasons why the prices are so high? Does anyone have a similar problem? any tips?

Has anyone found any good modular illithid terrain? I've been searching all over but as far as I can tell there's nothing out there. The closest I've found is the mind flayer ships made by Sordane Publishing.

My friend and me are going to 3d print terain instead of buying it, we both have STL 3D printers, mine is the SV06 and his is the Neptune 3 Pro, where can I find terain to print and how long would it take to print them

Hi all, looking to expand my list for creators of middle earth terrain (specifically rivendell currently) Which are your favroite subscriptions and shops! Post below!

Still some tiles to do but the most important ones are all here!

Hello all!

I'm working on 3D printing some Dragon's Rest tiles, and I want to be able to map out and print the pieces I need for a dungeon I'm doing.

Is there a free, recommended piece of software out there that lets you import and arrange STLs so that I can:
- See how all the pieces I have fit together to make the dungeon
- Eventually tally all of the dungeon pieces I need to gather / print to put it together.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

If anyone else uses OpenForge with openlock connectors, I'm steadily remixing them to be printable in one go, with no need for gluing! Collection of models here: https://makerworld.com/@yandalf/collections/2702727

Let me know if any specific tiles you'd like to see!
