With the new Necromunda starting to ship from tomorrow, some new terrain is in design.
Not 100% print, but the slim cans (redbull, aperol, cocktails etc) are the basis.

Yeah, we could have made them full print (still could as an option) but the scratchbuild bug is too strong to ignore entirely!

There are more base versions on the way, but we have several top pieces sorted, mix and match. We will get some printed and painted up to show you all.

This is the link to the final submission post for the Necromunda Terrain Builders contest 2026.

It has been a blast making this, including the coding and electronics for the lighting effects.

Some nice pics for those not on IG, but if you are a follow is hugely appreciated.

With the end in sight for the Necromunda Terrain Builers contest, some detail work and making sure everything is now on the diorama at least.
A few photos for your perusal.

Materials used are predominantly our own 3D designs printed out, the ethos is scratchbuild+ giving model makers detailed parts to add to scavenged materials to quickly make more realistic looking.

For those who are unfamiliar with 3D printing, this might not be of use to you.

The mini pipe system that we make has lots of very small parts, so small that adding a brim causes issues with cleanup, and bed adhesion issues on such small parts occasionally causes failures.

The kits comprise of 5x of each part in the system, so in the institutionalised mindset, we designed compact "sprue" versions (you know, for that warm fuzzy familiarity of injection moulded parts) Print failure is reduced, and kitting is easier.

The unexpected side effect of this is a large impact on overall print time.
The reason? The sprue is treated as one model, and there are no limitations on distance between the connected parts. Printing single peices x5 of every part causes up to 40% more travel time and takes up more space on the bed.

Plus they look pretty good too.
