I'm confident you'll meet the target sooner. I did make my mind up and order a set.

I'd say it would help scale it better if you had the photo of the largest building set with some infantry stands on to help visualise it.

Definitely. I want to get these for AT18, but how they line up with existing buildings (and, honestly, the worry of $70 shipping for the largest lot) makes it a less than simple pledge

Yeah getting hold of an AT titan and taking a photo of one next to it might help the AT newbies scale it easier?

Thanks for the input!!

Yes, I was planning to use titanicus models/buildings as scale shot, but my package is in limbo for 2 weeks now. Damned annoying.
Nobody bought locally, so no alternative solutions. I have ordered a box of knights in the meantime from somewhere else, and the caster should get them this weekend and do photos.

I asked the caster to put infantry there for scale. I will get the pictures tonight and upload them.

Shipping is a pain, I agree.

What we calculated that if 3 people manage to order together, we can send stuff by courier to one address, then the price per person drops drastically.

e.g. 3 big packages + 3 E buildings to US would be around 90-100 USD. Divided by 3 looks much better.

I know it is not possible for many people to group order, due to distances.

In many cases it is hard to say exact prices as I have only the weight of the prototype. I can only calculate with that and approximate box size for price. Local post is even less informative.

Shipping is a pretty tough thing all over, yeah. I agree that a group order would be a great solution, but finding a truly local group has been tricky. I'm right between Dave's NE group and PA, somewhat inconvenient for both. Hopefully I can convince some folks to get some AT18 and get in on the nifty terrain.

The stuff's great, the detail looks like it'll sit nicely with AT18 plastics, but a confirmation on the scale might just help tip the balance. Good luck getting your limbo-shipment resolved soon!

Yeah scale shots of anything from AT plus an infantry stand (ideally on a familiar 40mm strip base) next to a door would be ideal.

Picture with epic infantry solved.
Picture with AT stuff will be solved this weekend.

Thanks but not fully. A photo comparing an infantry stand with the height of the door (perhaps by the painted example building?) would be helpful too.

Got two:

One with the big door, one with the small door.

Nice designs with the CAD extras with the new stretch goal :) Will they be released in resin subsequently? The many of us without a 3d printer could use something like Shapeways but it'd be much more expensive and fragile to boot.

Post subject:  Re: Gregster's Lab - new building kits

I think we might do them in resin too. In the initial selection I wanted to realize the main building parts, but for the ones who do not print, these could be useful in resin.

But only after the campaign items are done and shipped.

Post subject:  Re: Gregster's Lab - new building kits

Good :) Hope so.

Any plans for further stretch goals? You're pretty close to the $3.5k already.

The towers become active at 3500.
At 3750 I add a bunch of old titan weapon designs to the digital package.
At 4k I have some industrial stuff up my sleeve..
Or more building types
