Display Area Building Blocks Free 3D print model

These are building blocks that you or your kids can use to create all sorts of terrains. There are millions of combinations and each person can create something new.

You can create a diorama to display all sorts of figures. Kinder Surprise Figures, My Little Pony or the low poly Pokemon that we’ve made. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/character/fantasy-character/low-poly-pokemon-collection

No gluing is needed but if you are going to be placing figures on it you might want to use blue tack (adhesive putty) to hold them in place. The texture on the surface of the terrain tiles is made by printing only the pattern in the first layer and then filling the surface in the next layer. The grid has the shape of the terrain pieces so you know easily how to place them on it. The shape of the tiles was chosen to go well with a low poly style that blends gradually from surface to surface. The look changes when viewed from different angles. The download contains STL files and also 3MF files for Prusa Printers that have slicer settings adjusted the way we recommend printing. All parts are placed on the print bed as we would print them to save you time.

The terrain textures are: Grass Water Lava Rocky City Desert – A and B create sand dunes together by making an ABAB pattern Blank - can be used as still water or printed any color as a basic terrain tile without a texture that’s easier to print
