Getting back into 6mm and 15mm WW2 gaming and I could use some suggestions of who sells terrain in this scale?

North Africa
Western Front
Eastern Front

Prefer 3d printed stuff, but I'll take a look at anything.

Thanks

I think Scale Creep sells some.

Worth it to invest in a 3D printer. A number of them are cheap enough and simple to use. Lots of free 3D files out there on the net, or for small cost. Contact me if you need some information or links.

Scratch build your own. Plenty of tutorials on the Interwebs.

I know there are plenty of New School options (buy commercial products; 3D printing, either at home, or from companies such as Shapeways), but I really prefer making stuff, myself. It does not look as good, but I enjoy both making it, as well as gaming on it. I don't do con-games, except rarely, so I do not worry about negative comments about my terrain pieces.

My bottom line on this, is that terrain-making is a sub-hobby of tabletop gaming. It can be a lot of fun, if you give it a try. It harkens back to the Old School days, which I missed due to being too young. I enjoy making my less than stellar terrain too much, to go any other route. It is very rewarding. Cheers!

I would start with some quick and easy paper terrain, then scratchbuild, replacing as you go along.

Battlefront/Gale Force 9's ranges are very good out of the box solutions. Keep an eye out for sales and ebay bargains, they can be very cost effective when bought that way.

3d print stl files, there's a lot to choose from!

Site is in French but the 15mm terrain is the best.
