Last days of summer

Dear patrons,

It is a very rainy day in Sweden today. I hope you have had a good summer. Here, work is gearing up to normal again. Kid and wife leaves me alone during the days when they are at school.

Release of Deep forest 2

I have just released Deep forest 2 to you. I have printed a lot of trees for my own games. This time, the models are of complete trees, ...

Shutdown of my Patreon account

Dear Patrons,

I'm incredible grateful for your support here on Patreon. But the time for the transition to MMF is now. Here are the changes I'm making to speed up this process:

• Deliveries will last for the rest of 2023. In 2024, there will be no more deliveries
• There will be no more access to votes on Patreon
• There will be no more early access on Patreon

Deep forest 2

Dear tribers,

Summer seems to come to an end very early here in Sweden this year. Maybe it will come back for a short visit later, I hope so.

I'm gearing up from vacation mode to working full time again. The wife and kid is going back to school (wife is a teacher) and that will give me peace and quiet to work. :-D

The vote ended with nearly double the votes for Deep forest 2 (...

Monorail and kimondo released on MMF

Dear patrons,

I have today released the african scifi and monorail to you via MMF.

The monorail is a bit more complex so it also comes with a manual.

If you can't find the release or have trouble with any of the models, don't hesitate to reach out.

In July I will have a bit of vacation. But I will also make some scifi furniture. And I will make the stretch goal for the s...

Early summer project poll

I have two suggestions from you guys and one I made myself.

Scifi furniture

Everything to fill a starship with stuff: Bunks, lockers, gurneys, workstations, monitors etc etc etc. Could be used to fill a colony or a spaceship.

African scifi

Rainforest or savhanna Africa this time, not northern Africa desert scifi. But still round or cylindrical buildings. Decorations ...

Release (and more) imminent, call for suggestions

Dear patrons,

I just finished the outer shape for the final house, almost. Chimney still need to be attached. Alternatives for doors created. Solid version created. Dormers created. Test prints and paints.

The fantasy market is done. Just some more painting to do.

MyMiniFactory transition

I will soon finish my tribe on MyMiniFactory and open it for business. Patreon wi...

Update

I will not make this longwinded:

Ok, a few more words:

I have been staying in my hermit cave where I retreated after my kickstarter flopped. But I am back now baby!

I have done a couple of pieces for a fantasy market:

• Merchant wagon
• 3x market stalls
• Fortu...

Last Domina Ferrum kickstarter stretch goal

Dear Patrons,

You can find a new zip-file for the small building 2 in the last release folder. This is the last stretch goal for the kickstarter I did half a year ago. This will also be printed and painted.

Now, on to new adventures. I am in the process of taking down my old company and starting it in a new form. Some paperwork and bank stuff need to be done.

Also, ...

November-December project 2022

Dear Patrons,

October is soon at an end. I have some stretch goals left for Domina Ferrum. So November will probably be started a bit late. And then comes Christmas. I will have some time off.

So this project will stretch over November and December.

There were a lot of suggestions this time. Very nice, thank you! This time it is about fantasy and I got some nice suggestions fo...

Call for suggestions

Dear patrons,

The scifi dwarf outpost is rapidly expanding. But as we are over half the month the deadline is approaching. I will do one of the stretch goals for Domina Ferrum this month too, it will take a couple of days. Time flies. And that is a good thing.

At its current state, the outpost is usable. But you can only build cuboid structures. Rectangular  (somewhat at least)...

Scifi dwarf outpost

I started the month with a bunch of experimenting. First with different broad concepts, then with different designs elements.

So, to your big surprise (not) this became a modular system. The design is based around moduls confined to 80x80x80mm (a bit over 3 inch). There are so far walls, corners and roofs. Parts include ladders and stairs to get to the roof terrace.

I'm going to mak...

Italy release

Dear Patrons,

The files is up in the share and I will send each of you a private message with the release (so I can make this post public).

This is what is delivered:

• 1 big house
• 4 medium houses
• 1 smaller house
• 1 shed/garage (for a tiny Italian car)
• System of hedges
• System of low stone walls

I hope you like it! :-)...

October project ideas

Dear Patrons,

We are at halftime for the Italian landscape. I have a hedge, a low stone wall (to surround your garden with), the beginning of a dirt road and a couple of houses. If you have access to the early releases, there are a bunch of STL-files for you to examine.

I will continue with the houses and also make one of the stretch goals for Domina Ferrum.

What should happen...

Going full time

Dear patrons,

Yesterday was the last day in IT for me (for now). I'm now going full time with Terrain4Print.

TL;DR

I'm going full time on 3D modeling. Expect many more models. 

The ultimate goal

Live on income from patreon. Release all terrain for free. I'm very very far from that right now.

The long term goal

Live on income from patreon. Rel...

Gothic ruin painting video

Dear Patreons,

It was a long time since I made a video like this, it shows. But anyway, here it is.

Back and forth

Dear patrons,

I just want to let you know that I am working, currently on Ulvheim balconies. But it is a bit of back and forth, design wise. I thought I had all the railings done (the big part). But decided I needed to redo about half of it. I am nearing the end for Ulvheim and I don't want to mess up quality.

Thank you for your continued support!

A very hard post to write

Dear patrons,

I have been home sick for a couple of weeks now. I am stressed out and exhausted. To change this I have made the very hard decision to put Terrain4Print on hold for at least a couple of months.

I have paused debiting. Please stay for now until I feel better and can make a more long term decision.

You will NOT be charged at the end of May.

Thank you very...

Releases

Dear patrons,

I'm very tired of this virus mess so I will not talk you to sleep about it. Simply: take care of yourself.

New releases

Two new releases are up. Since thingiverse isn't working very well at the moment I give you cults3d and myminifactory.

https://cults3d.com/en/users/...

Now just drilling

I think all of these are shape ready. Now I just need to drill them up to make room for connecting clips.

We have:

• Two entrances, A and B
• Bottom floor without entrance, A and B
• Upper floor (stackable), A and B
• Roof fitting A and B
• Back roof with and without roof door
• Back facing ground floor with and without door
• One upper ...

Some progress

I have actually been to Japan for a week. Airports are super boring. Good that I brought a laptop with blender installed. This is the current state of the brownstone building.

3D meetup

I will be going to 3D meetup, just signed up. I will not make anything special for it. Just bring what I already have and show it. I will also sit and work there. Come and shake my hand and I will ...

Brownhouse design, call for feedback

Dear Patrons,

I'm getting started on the brownhouse now. Screenshot above shows my plans. The blue parts are the six basic blocks. Two entrances, two middle floors, two roofs. Each long side will come decorated or flat with clip holes and magnet holes.

As the grey parts shows, you can also mirror for more variety.

The size of this will be 120mm x 240mm. Given a 1:50 scale this...

Vote decided and composites released

Dear patrons,

The vote is now closed. I'm sorry about not being able to add Roman building to it properly. I'll add it to the next vote as well.

The results doesn't speak for themselves. In the beginning, modern buildings started out very strong, but the statues managed to catch up and win in the end. But it was very close.

I will make some statues, a modular (kind of) modern ...

The arsenal is extended with another tool

Be warned, there is a bit of technical terms in this text. If you are not into 3D graphics just look at the result.

I am a blender user since ten years. I started out with 3D studio R4 (in Dos) some 25 years ago. I have since then used 3D studio max, Rhino, Wings3D and a tiny bit of sketchup before climbing the hurdle and learned blender. It was quite a hurdle but it was worth it. Now wit...

Update

Dear patrons,

Thank you for 2019. Here is a quick recap of what happened:

 * Ulvheim kickstarter

Yeah, that was it (almost). It has been an experience, not all good but not all bad.

I look forward to resume normal operations. Unfortunately, Ulvheim is not completely done yet. But on a positive side:

* I will start to work 80% (instead of 100%) again. Now I wil...

Statues and roads

Dear patrons,

Thank you for your patience and continued support. I know this Ulvheim thing has dragged on for far to long. :-/

Anyway, I have two new releases for everyone that was a patron before the kickstarter started. In the release folder you will find statues.zip and roads.zip.

I have every Friday off from work until Christmas. Over Christmas I have three weeks off. Duri...

Ulvheim late pledges (now closed)

The kickstarter is now closed.

Models will be available later, most probably at gumroad:

Kickstarter in full swing

Dear patrons,

My kickstarter for Ulvheim has only 13 days to go. Several stretch goals has been unlocked and there will be more, I am quite sure.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/terrain4print/ulvheim-stl-files-for-a-stone-city?ref=bcl40m

Container and one car done

I made a container. A bit sci-fi, but could work for many settings, even modern. Then I smashed in up into three versions.

I made a car. Then I stretched and squeezed it to make it into three versions. Then I smashed them up. 13 versions all in all.

I'm printing this now.

I'm continuing with a tau container. As a start for that I did a google for "Tau architecture 40k". Guess ...

Kickstarter waiting to start

Dear patrons, thank you for yet another months support.

I have now done the final recipes before the kickstarter can start. Here they are:

The kickstarter page is ready.

New Ulvheim wall variants by Devon

Devon Jonas, aka masterwork tools, has made some new variants for Ulvheim B. Thank you very much!

I have myself done a new recipe. It's not done yet, since I need to print the parts for it, assemble it and paint it so I can make cover images.
