A couple of weeks ago we brought you pictures of some 3D prints<\/a> of our first set of Land Ironclads scale (roughly 2mm \/ 1\/1000th) houses. Sadly these weren’t really up to scratch, being a bit off the mark in terms of the print quality. Fortunately the nice people at Shapeways<\/a> also thought so, and offered to reprint them for us. These new prints have arrived in double quick time, and are a massive improvement – so 10\/10 for Shapeways customer services department. The detail is much crisper, the edges are square and the windows no longer look like they’ve been pushed into a bit of plasticine with someone’s thumb ! There were happy faces at Brigade Towers this evening, it must be said \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The models are the same – we have a set of 20 English village buildings (mostly houses, with the odd inn, pub or shop amongst them) and nine two-part churches. The nine towers will fit any of the three naves, allowing for plenty of variation.<\/p>\n

Because we’ve made enough prints to completely fill two moulds, we should be able to release these in double quick-time because we can bypass the intermediate master-mould stage and go straight to production moulds (the original hope was that we’d have these for SELWG, but that didn’t happen). The houses will come in a single pack of 20 houses for around \u00a35, while the churches will be in a pack of three (one of each nave and three random towers\/spires) for \u00a33. The successful printing of these also gives us the confidence to go ahead and order more buildings – we have farms, factories and terraced houses ready to go and lately I’ve been working on some Mediterranean buildings as a break from 15mm tanks. I’ll preview some of these later in the week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
