Standard Template Library: Armored Might Indiegogo

Bei Indiegogo werden STL-Dateien für Panzer eines fernen Jahrtausends finanziert.

In the Beginning…

I found my love for building models when I got into model kits almost 30 years ago, and I’ve been engaged in the mini hobby in some form or another for the past 25+ years, mainly focusing on Tabletop Wargaming. Throughout my hobbyist career one thing has remained constant, my love for customization and converting. When Resin Printing became readily available I immediately jumped in. Soon after I was using my work related CAD skills for something useful 🙂

3D Printing your Modular Armored Might

This campaign will focus on bringing to life my vision of Sci-Fi Tanks of various sizes, and of course all Modular and with lots of options, allowing the avid Modeler or Wargamer to 3d print and field tanks with limitless configurations.

All tanks will be Printable in a Resin Printer with a print volume of at least 68x120x150mm, like an Anycubic Photon or Elegoo Mars. They’ll also be Magnet ready, using only 3x1mm and 5×2 Magnets for turrets weapons and hatches, as well as propulsion systems. To take customization a little further, there will be various options for some cosmetic glue-on parts.

The Ultimate Goal

I want to continue developing this line of models with new designs, and go one step further  and offer them outside the 3d Printing community. To that end, this campaign will help me gauge the interest in the design, concept and the potential for resin casting.

What You Get

Digital Product: As soon as the campaign ends and funds have been cleared you will receive 3d Printable files, already cut and sized for Resin Printing in STL format. Please note No Physical models will be delivered. The STL Files provided are for personal use.  Please see Rules, Terms and Conditions at the bottom.

Core Set / Stretch goals: The Campaign will be split between a Core Set and Stretch Goals, unlocked by funding. All Backers will get the Core Set plus all unlocked Stretch Goals, described bellow.

Scale: The default scale of the Models is  32mm / 28mm Heroic.

Flexible Funding: This Campaign will run as Flexible Funding option, meaning any backers will get the Core Set Models at least. There is no risk of the campaign failing to gather funds.
