Z.O.D. Terrain Tiles (Core Set) by dutchmogul

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

NEW KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN!!!
---UDATE: 9/21: We've revamped the tiles, replacing most of them with the new format. For those of you that were experiencing fins that print horizontally snapping (the ones on the tops of walls, for example) this is no longer an issue as all fins now print on the Z. Additionally, walls and floors connect with spacers (arranged in connected/pull-apart packs for easier printing) which means walls can now be assembled free of floors for scatter terrain purposes (and you only need one wall format now).
Introducing the Z.O.D. gaming tiles, by Ill Gotten Games!
We designed these 3d-printable files to be optimized for home printing and cover a wide (and expanding) variety of themes and genres. Whether you use them for RPG dungeon-delves, wargaming scenics, or anything else, these tiles print and assemble fast and easy and come off your build plate ready to paint!
This core set includes the basic tiles for the Dungeon and Starship themes, though if you like these and want more, head on over to our Kickstarter Campaign and drop us a pledge!
-Z.O.D. tiles are optimized to print along the Z axis, meaning you can get high definition on details, use less material (0% infill), and fit more tiles per print.
Because of the vertical printing, each floor tile is reversible, printing with two floor textures each.
-Z.O.D. tiles print easily in one piece and never require support material.
-Tiles easily slide or snap together for a firm hold, ensuring that each piece you print is textured to be part of the map.
-Each tile segment prints in an average of 45 minutes, and you can print one at a time to avoid curling if that's an issue for your machine.
-All genre themes will interlock, allowing you to mix and match from any set.
Z.O.D. tiles are designed for use with 28mm/Heroic scale miniatures, though we will offer options for 15mm and 6mm scale gaming as well.
-Wall tiles use their own channels and do not infringe on the floor grids, each of which perfectly accommodates a 25mm/1" base.
-Try printing your Z.O.D. tiles in black filament (ABS or PLA) and skip the priming phase, painting directly onto the surface!
For those of you who follow us on Patreon (or if you're considering doing so), our patrons will receive every design file we make for this series. Just be sure and set your monthly cap at something you're comfortable paying (because we tend to be fairly prolific).
Because these pieces rely on certain print settings, you'll want to observe the following print guidelines;
-Try printing one tile at a time first.
-Print at 0% infill for the best results.
-You don't need support, but a raft may be helpful (depending on your printer and material).
-We print ours at a .2 layer height, though you could try for higher resolution if you prefer.
-We've had equally good results in both ABS and PLA.
Enjoy!
-A special note to our Patreon supporters- All of our patrons will get the full compliment of Z.O.D. sets as they're released, regardless of whether or not they back the Kickstarter campaign.
