3d Printing Benefits
This is my first release of 28 heroic scale miniatures, a huge project that aims to change the way we have been 3D printing for wargames from now on.
Like many, I wondered if 3D printers really served to build an entire army, or only served to print monsters, heroes, or figures with strange positions in which supports were avoided, with the added difficulty of unifying all of them into certain proportions. I often came across extraordinary designs, but too different to build a coherent army.
Customization
The second point was the difficulty of customizing the models, one of my favorite parts of the hobby, with the added problem of gluing many of the resin pieces together. Frequently they had been cut after designing them, without any type of connector that would make the work easier, and depending on the size of the piece, forcing it to be drilled to include wire or other hooks.
I was thinking for a while about how to avoid these problems, and so now I am pleased to present the birth of Tartessos miniatures, with the intention of offering people an entire army, with infantry units, cavalry, and trained creatures to confront and destroy the enemies of Order and Peace. An army designed on the basis of small pieces, of fast printing, which in turn require smaller supports; a highly customizable and expandable army: a system that allows you to prepare archers on horseback, knights on foot, pikemen on griffins… Whatever you want or need!
