I am trying to print a set of hills that consist of a straight, curve, and ends which will allow building of long and if required bendy ridges. The novel feature will be that the hills will stack together when not in use, not taking up as much space.

If there were enough interest in the system I could make the .STL fites avaialable for about £5.00 GBP for the set. Scaleing may not be much of an option as the size is quite large to start with.

as it stands its a 15mm tall so 6ft for 1/144 and 3ft for 25 to 35mm troops.

Definitely interested in seeing renders that show how the whole system works.

I finaly got round to pictures. Some have flock on then that shows the pattern does not show.

The set is effectively.

Straight, LH and RH curve (11.25 deg), Left and Right hand end. The rurves can be pot togethet so you can have any angle in 11.25 deg intervals.


I could do a straight with two ends the same to make it more flexible.

They stack as there is only a support at one end. The peg is in the centre to provide enough support for the model withou flex.

Lots of pics here:-

The first has a 25mm tank behind it and 1 the same tank (more or less) at 1/144 behind the 12mm infantry on the top.

question comments, interest welcome.
