🔍 Hobbyist Notes and Transparency

Transparency is our core value. Many wargaming terrain sellers use digital computer renders to hide the reality of their 3D prints. We are different. Our main photos are of the actual, raw, PLA kit you will receive.

• Finish Details: Unpainted or Zenithal-primed items arrive ready for priming/painting to your custom design. Pro-Painted models are painted to a precise studio specification (please note there may be minor variations due to the hand-painted nature of the process). Pro-Painted items arrive fully finished and ready to play with just a small amount of assembly.
• Assembly: While no glue is necessary, you may like to permanently fix the main structure pieces together using superglue (cyanoacrylate) or epoxy resin. (Note: Standard plastic cement/poly cement will not bond with PLA or resin).
• Print Quality: Printing is carried out on our commercial-grade, top-of-the-range printers using premium PLA+ plastic. We strictly inspect all components for flaws, but on occasion, minor cleaning up with a sharp hobby blade may be required prior to assembly.
• Filament Batches: Although we take steps to prevent it, slight color variations in the raw grey plastic may occur between filament batches. This does not affect the structural quality of the model, and priming or painting will completely conceal any variation.
• Note: Character models shown in images are for scale reference only and are not included in the set.

🛠️ Customisation and Off-Scale Requests

• Scale Adjustments: This model is natively printed at a scale suitable for 28mm gaming. Most listings have options for other scales, but if you would like this set scaled for a custom scale, please contact us for a direct quote.
• High-Definition Prints: All our models are printed at a high-quality standard optimized for rugged tabletop gaming. If you have a specific requirement for an extra-high-detail display print, let us know to discuss a custom lead-time and quote.
• Custom Layouts and Spares: Can’t quite find the right combination of parts, or need a replacement component? Just ask! Whether it’s an extra-tall tower made from four center sections instead of two, a unique arrangement of walls, or you just want a subset of the kit, we can print any combination to suit your board layout.
• Fair Pricing: There are no hidden fees or additional charges for customization. All our custom prices are calculated fairly based on material weight, print time, and the number of machine runs.
