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

Just released a smallscale salvage crew:

https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/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.

A little announcement!

The STLs of Bits Blitz Designs stuff are now also available through Vanguard Miniatures. For now you can only buy the STLs there, but soon you can also buy printed versions of my designs through them. You can find the current catalog over HERE!

Note that Bits Blitz Designs' shop on Cults3D also stays open.

Drunk workers are now available! Always handy for your Titanicus scaled projects!

You don't need an AT army to build a kick ass AT scaled diorama

DUFF (the Cyrillic one)? Better don't let this fat bald worker near to the reactor of a Titan.

Ha! I wonder how long it would take for someone to recognise that one!

Haha those are so great! Really cool ideas, I love the amount of variety of stuff that you're now able to get hold of due to 3D printing. It has really opened the floodgate of creativity it seems.

As an independent I'm a bit less bound by "what will this proxy for".

Well I suppose they have so much utility! I've got the AT Warmaster kit, and want to do the base as just one drunk guy stood by his feet looking up at it

I don't know if this is of any use to you Malika but I was looking at some powerlines the other day and wondering what grimdark powerlines might look like.

I was thinking maybe 6 armed statues holding the cables, sculpted to look like Art Deco spirits of electricity (armored, lightning bolts on helmets etc). Or even if they were just more gothic with arches and buttresses.

they could be some kind of barrier or trap, I remember a Godzilla film where they tried to trap him in power lives and shock him to death.

**Malika2**

Funny you should mention those. Did you see these by Grimdark Terrain?

Also, I've done these for Vanguard Miniatures. No clue when/if they will ever release those:

**Kid_Kyoto**

The Grimdark ones are nice, but I like yours better.

Still no 8mm for me, got a ton and a half of 28mm to do and then I have to get back to pretty space ships, but I think the power pylons would be a good addition to a lot of boards.

**Malika2**

Note that the power lines I've done for Vanguard will most likely be released as STLs (if they come out), that means you could resize them for 28mm gaming if needs be.

Spoiler:

**Mr. Burning**

ohhh.
Now they look interesting!

**Pacific**

Very cool! I like that the climbing guys could probably be used for some sort of Gangnam-style dancing diorama, if anyone is in need of a joke, decade-old and rubbish reference
