It's actually a free game called Pocket Tactics, but I joined the Kickstarter for them to do more detailed pieces: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/29 ... et-tactics

Those are the high detail 30mm scale models from the Kickstarter which they don't appear to have made available otherwise (yet?).

I also printed that entire setup from the 15mm scale models on my FDM using a 0.25 model which came out well.

Ugh. So this weekend I discovered the LCD that the UV shines through is dead after it made this:

Look like this:

Prusa says they see damage to the LCD in the pics I sent them so it isn't a warranty issue. I'm trying to get them to understand that if leaking from their tanks wasn't deemed "acceptable" that I wouldn't have to have been fucking around with the LCD trying to clean the messes up and therefore it wouldn't be damaged...

So that dude is some sort of Transformer? His skill must be that he transforms into a blob of stuff. Nice super power there. Let the Prusa battle begin again...or is it really just continue?

From outofmarbles.com. There are 10 tracks total (everything you see there took from Thursday afternoon until 1am this morning) and I'm not sure if I'll make the tower 10 levels high or just swap tracks in and out.

Nope it's the old one. The parts are all way too big for the SLA printer.
