cloudcaptain that's good to hear! I test printed the first truck in 15mm/1:100th scale as well, with a 0.2mm nozzle. Everything printed out fine – except the axles were ridiculously flimsy. I am considering redesigning at some point for smaller prints.

Did you have any issues at 1/72 scale?

Prospector Rover

Prospector Rover Vehicle is a collection of 3D-printable files that can be built into a variety of science-fiction rover vehicles. They have been designed to print easily and to work with 28-32mm scale figures. The vehicles can be used as terrain for systems like Games Workshop Warhammer 40K and Warhammer 40K: Kill Team, Corvus Belli's Infinity, and many other sci-fi and post-apocalyptic games.

Components

Included in Prospector Rover Vehicle are a variety of core components and variant pieces:

  • Prospector Cabin: in two variants.
  • Prospector Body: with working cargo doors, two roof options, and three different rears.
  • Chassis: with 'rocker-bogie' suspension based on real Mars rovers, which includes independently position-able wheels. Also includes three wheel options.
  • A separate, tow-able trailer that can be added.

The parts in this kit also combine with our other vehicle packs, to add even more variety to your sci-fi tabletop.

Printing

The pieces are designed to be printed on a home FDM 3Dprinter with:

  • A 0.4mm nozzle.
  • 0.08-0.1mm layer height.
  • 15-20% infill.
  • Supports are only required for a few of the .STL files.
  • Rafts may be required for the smaller parts, depending on your 3Dprinter.

All .STL files are oriented correctly so you can load them into your slicer and print immediately. The parts have been designed to print face-up for the best detail. All .STL files were sliced using Cura and test-printed on a Creality Ender 3.
