3D model description

Sturdy, compact, alien, with strange reassembly propertyes.... these pipes definitely carry something sinister within. Somehow.... it feels like something can be attached to them.... like a beacon of sorts....

These pipes were designed for the Nec'tyr armies of the WH40K universe, but they're pipes, and can hapilly sit in any alien world complex. This kit is VERY FLEXIBLE, so its up to you how you assemble it.
Once made, it can serve as cover, deco, explodable-breachable terrain, or even objectives on the tabletop.

The kit contains:
-stubby tubes (connections between larger pieces)
-long tubes (3 rings on each for max impact)
-decorative rings (extra plating and decorfor the tube)
-pipe connectors (they're the things holding each pipe segment together)
-ball tank (stores stuff, also ending piece for a segment)
-corner ball tank (the same just with an L connection).
-tank connectors (go on the balls, obviously)
-corner pipe (90* pipe)
-ground pipe (it goes into the very earth!)
-pipe holders (lifts everything above the ground)

Depending how many pieces you print, and how you assemble them, you can generate highly diverse pipeworks for your dioramas, so get a structure going before you start printing! otherwise you'll be flooded with small parts. The last two photos are how many of each i used to make this build.

Warning: The tower in the second image is not part of this kit, but you can find it through my other models!
If you buy this kit, please do not sell the prints or files on different websites. But feel free to showcase the final result!

3D printing settings

Printed on a Tevo Tarantula Pro. Except for the ring, corner_pipe, and mby the ground_pipe, nothing else needs support.
