Print your own Space Aussies with Victoria Miniatures 3D STL files Kickstarter for great alternative Warhammer 40k Imperial Guard models!
If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if you threw a bunch of battle-hardened soldiers into the galaxy’s most unforgiving Warhammer 40k wilderness and gave them an Aussie attitude, Victoria Miniatures has your answer!
Victoria Miniatures’ Space Aussies: 3D Printable STL Kickstarter Brings Van Diemen’s Devils to Life
Victoria Miniatures is back at it again with their latest Kickstarter project, and this time it’s for fans of the tough-as-nails ‘Space Aussies.’ If you’re a fan of the original Van Diemen’s World Devils, you’re in for a treat! These rugged soldiers from the grim, distant future have been digitally remastered as highly detailed, modular STL files, making them perfect for today’s tabletop gamers who want to add a bit of outback attitude to their forces.
Space Aussies Miniature STL Files: Perfect Alternative Warhammer 40k Imperial Guard
Victoria Miniatures first introduced the Devils back in 2012, when they were produced as hand-sculpted, modular metal miniatures. For those unfamiliar, the Devils aren’t your ordinary sci-fi soldiers. They’re toughened by the harsh environments of Van Diemen’s World, a planet known for its blistering heat, lethal wildlife, and general “anything-that-moves-might-kill-you” vibe. It’s like Australia, but in space—and cranked up to 11.
The Devils embody that same ethos. Sporting rugged bush hats, slouch hats, and gear that speaks to both practicality and survival, they look like the kind of troops that could go ten rounds with space spiders the size of houses—and win. Their history is rooted in battles that require wit, grit, and plenty of firepower, whether they’re fighting through alien-infested jungles or dealing with grim dark warlords.
This Kickstarter brings these classic designs to life once again—but with a modern twist. The team has scanned and remastered the original miniatures into printable STL files, meaning you can print your very own Aussie-inspired forces right at home. It’s like having your own little space regiment without the need to cross the galaxy.
What’s in the Box? (Well, Files)
For $43 AUD (around $29 USD), backers will get access to all the Space Aussies STL files in both supported and unsupported versions. These files include everything you need to build a full squad of Van Diemen’s World Devils—modular, so you can kitbash to your heart’s content.
Fancy a different weapon loadout? No problem. Want to mix and match some hats or gear? Go for it. It’s a digital cache of customizability, allowing you to create a unique look for your army. Best of all, they make the perfect alternative to Warhammer 40k Imperial Guard minis!
It’s worth noting that the files are tailored for both beginners and seasoned hobbyists. Whether you’re just getting into 3D printing or have a whole army of resin miniatures ready to go, these files are accessible and easy to work with. Print them in whatever scale suits your game, whether it’s skirmish-level or massive battles across planets!
The Stretch Goals: Something for Everyone
Victoria Miniatures is known for throwing in a few surprises, and this Kickstarter is no exception. As the campaign gains traction, stretch goals will be unlocked, adding even more fun stuff to the mix. While exact details are still under wraps, we’re expecting to see everything from additional weapons to alternate heads—possibly even vehicles or special characters, if the funding reaches high enough.
One fun twist: Victoria Miniatures is inviting backers to drop suggestions for stretch goals in the comments section. If you’ve got a wild idea for a new accessory or an entirely new sculpt, this could be your chance to see it brought to life. Want to see some futuristic kangaroo cavalry? You never know, she might just add it in!
Why It’s Worth Supporting
For long-time fans of the Devils, this Kickstarter is a love letter to the original models. But even if you’re new to the world of Victoria Miniatures, there’s plenty to enjoy here. The combination of classic design, cutting-edge digital tech, and an active community makes this project stand out. Plus, with the modular nature of the miniatures, you’ll have endless possibilities for building a force that feels uniquely yours.
In short, if you’re looking for a way to bring a bit of rugged, Australian-style action to your tabletop, Victoria Miniatures has you covered. With high-quality STL files, great customization options, and a whole squad of Space Aussies ready for action, this Kickstarter is well worth a look. Now’s the perfect time to start printing and painting your very own Devils—because space, like the outback, is no place for the faint of heart.
