The work never ends...

**Malika2**

Been working on some extra bits to add on the bottom of my building design. Note that these bits could be added anywhere else a well. These are just the first three designs, I've currently got about 15 such parts done (vent systems, cogitators, libraries, etc) and will most likely do a whole bunch more of them.

**Malika2**

Coming soon...

My first building just got released!

Alpha Hab Tower

The Alpha Hab Tower is designed for 6mm/8mm gaming, but it could probably be upscaled for 10mm and 15mm scaled gaming as well. This makes the Alpha Hab Tower suitable for games such as Adeptus Titanicus, Dropzone Commander, or Battletech.

The kit consists of the following parts:
- 3 types of entrances (all windows, single row of balconies, double row of balconies)
- 3 types of back walls (all windows, single row of balconies, double row of balconies)
- 3 types of side walls (all windows, single row of balconies, double row of balconies)
- 2 types of roofs
- 7 types of balconies

Just lovely work, Malika!!!

One question - Do you usually anticipate these being printed on an FDM printer, or a liquid resin printer such as SLA? If the latter, do you intend them to be printed with or without supports?

**Malika2**

Good questions! I've noticed that resin printers bring in better results. I know that the walls of the Alpha Hab Tower when put together can be printed without supports. Not sure about the roof.

As for the tech shanties, I think they might need some supports.

As is, the roof needs supports in both fdm and resin, but it could be reworked to allow it (or a new one could be designed)

**RiTides**

Thank you very much for the info

. It all looks amazing!

**Malika2**

For those who don't have a 3d printer of their own:

SMALLSCALE PREFAB UNIT (SONONIS PATTERN)

The Sononis pattern prefab unit is widely used throughout the colonies either as a storage unit or a cheap alternative for housing. The design itself is very ancient, based on the old prefabricated steel structures developed by the military engineer known as the son of Nis.

The kit is now available on my Cults3d shop (link in bio) and contains the following parts:
-single structure
-10 different door options

Saw them uploaded, those look really interesting to spruce up models

**Malika2**

Just released a smallscale salvage crew:

The set includes 15 crew members and 5 pieces of debris. The miniatures are about 7mm tall, making them very suitable for games such as Adeptus Titanicus or Battletech.
