3d printed proxy marker [added N3-silhouettes]

by CoveredInFish » October 2nd, 2014, 8:57 am

Hi all,

a long time ago I posted in the official forum an idea how to mark proxies with a speech bubble or a banderole. EDIT: I found the thread.


Recently I'have become a proud owner of a 3D printer, so I refined my idea.

That's an excellent idea!

That there, there will be pure wine and honey and sugar
Fill up the wine cup and place it in my hand

I might agree here :) the speech bubble are cool

Designing the speech bubble in my 3d software was more complicated, so I went with a simple form first to test things out. Maybe I'm going back to the bubble or glue paper speech bubble to the flag. Dunno yet

very cool!

Though I think Litko makes something similar (torch-holder marker for D&D), I fully support projects like that to learn the 3d sculpting/printing gig!

Litko torch-holder markers:

Do you mind if I suggest this to Litko?

Ah nice. Very cool torches, I should start some fantasy dungeon crawling game just use these.

Yeah, getting to know 3d printing is my main interest here.

No - I don't mind at all :) I dont own this idea, it just visited me ;)

Shiny :)

One thing they, IMO, miss, is the partial cover mark.
