Head over Heels - Dungeonalia entry
3d printing rocks
One of the great things about 3d printing is how quick and easy it makes the “iterative design” process. After printing out and sanding my Head of Heels terrain pieces, I was excited to put them together an see the game start to come to life already. But while the pieces looked great on my cutting mat, when I cam to put them on a playing grid, they didn’t quite line up.
So I spent some time resizing and re-fitting them virtually before committing to the printer one more time.
While they’re printing I thought I’d get on with actually building the dungeon grid. Black Magic Craft has a fantastic tutorial on making foam tiles for this very purpose.
Even while the tiles are printing, there’s one thing I’m committing to, early on – and that’s a 1-inch-square grid. So there’s nothing to stop me working on these while the printer goes burrrrrrr.
