Another long-arse post name today as I share a pair of prints from Wargame Forge over on MyMiniFactory. Now, chances of my showing more stuff from Wargame Forge in the next week is pretty high, but right now I don’t have anything else from there that’s fully finished (I think) or photographed (I know) – so we’re going with what we got for this run of posts!
These generators, like SO many other pieces of wargaming terrain are clearly inspired by the Echo Base Shield Generators from The Empire Strikes Back. From the days when Star Wars was still actually, y’know. Good.
I did my usual, printing out a couple of each. After all, I paid for the bloody STL files and so I like to get more use out of (at least) most of them than a single print. I did mirror the damaged verison to give a little variation, as usual.
Something I do like about these is that they’re pretty scale-agnostic. Now obviously being STL files, they can be embiggened as much as you like (or can fit on a build plate) – but even printed at Battletech Gothic scale, they still work ok with a variety of other models, scales and genres, as you can see in these photos.
These were also finished off on the Oil Wash Weekend, but in this case I think they would have worked out just as well with regular acrylic washes – but that’s the point of experimenting – and what better place to experiment than with low-stakes terrain pieces – and even moreso when you can just print ’em. As per usual for this time of year, these terrain prints work for Dave Stone’s Season of Scenery ’25.




Nicely done! 🙂 I like the metallic finish!

Thanks John! It’ll actually give a bit of a break from all the grey & bone in the other buildings. 🙂

I can definitely see the Star Wars influence but I really like the metallic look you went with. I think the paint color makes these very versatile and they actually really fit superheroes well. Battletech also looks the part for my money so I’d say these were a great investment!

Thanks mate – TMM and satin/gloss varnish hides a multitude of sins – or in this case, layer lines!
