Re: New Sculpts, A rough plan
My son just received the first Heroscape master set (I picked it out as a birthday present for him after doing a little reading) so I came out to do a little more research.
I have a cnc machine (best at carving wax) and am curious about whether anyone has modeled the base hex tile in 3D. I'm trying to save a lot of trial and error time on the base tile geometry so that it will fit properly. Given relatively decent geometry, it would be an easy thing to mill out some wax masters of "new" tiles. I suspect the tiles are injection molded plastic, but am unsure. Can anyone confirm? While I'm set up to do resin or plaster casting, I haven't investigated other methods. (EDIT : looks like cast tiles are being made without concern for interlocking pieces - that's a lot easier) Step 2 would be to look at figure modeling. It's a little less interesting (due to the time investment) because wax masters would be limited or more difficult to achieve thru CNC. Last edited by Gnef; May 9th, 2011 at 04:31 PM. |

Re: New Sculpts, A rough plan
Welcome to the site, Gnef!
I don't know the answer to your questions, but I know other people on these forums have discussed molding their own duplicates of the terrain tiles. You're probably better off asking this question in the Custom Terrain section. |
