We are extremely enthusiastic about this system because it allows for all sizes of miniatures in tabletop gaming. Anything from your basic 25 or 28mm mini up to heroic-sized miniatures fit nicely with this terrain. We have begun releasing info about it on October 1st and will continue to give spoilers until our launch date (end of the month). I do hope you enjoy! We are gamers and wanted an affordable, at-home solution for excellent terrain. Nothing really hit the mark so we decided to do it ourselves.

Update 9/28/2016

Tilescape Modular Building System™ is a pretty fantastic way to bring your gaming table to life!

Today I will tell you a little bit more about our Kickstarter and what it’s composed of.

This weekend I will reveal the guts of the system and what makes it a “system” and not just more tiles to add to your collection. This will be a video so if you have not yet signed up on our forum or liked us on Facebook, you might want to stop on by because you won’t want to miss it! Don’t forget to visit our website where you’ll find links to the forum, Facebook, twitter, and our YouTube channel.

The Tilescape™ “Dungeons” KS will include THREE core sets: Dungeon, Sewers, and Caverns.

The Dungeon is the central (and largest) set. It is composed of 30 unique pieces and will be available upon the end of a successful KS.
Although the Dungeon Core is the only one that is completed, you will see all of the concept art for the other two sets…no surprises, full disclosure.
The Stretch Goals for this KS are absolutely fantastic. I can honestly say that out of all the years that I’ve been following and pledging KickStarters, these stretch goals are the biggest bang for the buck that I have seen in this particular genre. I want to offer the quality and quantity of goodies that I would be excited to receive if I were backing something like Tilescape™.

There are hundreds of dollars’ worth of added value here…all depending on you, the supporter! The higher the KS goes, the more you will get.

The Add-Ons for this KS will blow your mind! We will have an entry-level pledge for people (who for some wacky reason) don’t need terrain. This will allow you to purchase only add-ons.
For example…if you ONLY want the (SPOILER ALERT) 20” Behemoth Deluxe Miniature (!!!!!) You can absolutely do that by pledging at the entry level and adding the add-ons you want!
Our Add-Ons will include themed packs, deluxe miniatures, and combinations of both.

HEADS-UP...We will be offering an Early Bird Special to celebrate our followers. There will be 100 available!

Update 9/29/2016

Alright guys...here's a reveal of one of the tiles. Tomorrow I will be adding a video describing the various parts and how they interact.
This is just one of the tiles, just one of the FIVE variations you will receive so you don't see any tiling of the pattern. There was a tremendous
amount of detail and thought put into this set.

Every brick is hand-sculpted, each floor tile is, too! Each made with great care and attention to shape, texture, and pattern.
We hope you LOVE these as much as we do! We are avid gamers and have longed for terrain like this...so rather than wait for it, we MADE it.

Debut video of the Tilescape Modular Building System™

Here you can see the three main components of the system: the tile, the frame, and the link. This example is to show how easy it is to use, how secure the connections are, and how perfect it is for tabletop gaming!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Our Tilescape DUNGEONS core set consists of 30 pieces (and that is ONLY the Dungeon core) to interchange for endless dungeons. There are tons of possibilities and lots more you can do with this system...tune in for more videos, pictures, and demonstrations!

So after some digging I can save a bunch of people the time and say this is all just for 3d files, no resin or plastic to be had here. Unsubscribed.

No need for digging...all info is easily found on my Facebook, website, and forum...or just ask me! 3D printing is the future and printers have become so affordable that if you are into building terrain, you'll have one at some point. It's FAR cheaper to purchase a 3D printer and get the files than to invest in terrain that is pre-printed. There are lots of them out there and they are QUITE costly. You can get a good 3D printer, suitable for printing terrain for about $300. Then, once you have the .stl files you print as much as you want...forever.

Hi, could you please update the title so it clearly reads that these are for 3D printing so people like myself who have no access to a printer but love terrain don't waste our time, thanks.

this is kind of like building a model, showing how cool the model is and then saying oh no.... we're only selling the instructions.
agreed, update the subject please.

No problem, done!

Did you know that many public places are starting to offer 3D printing services? I've heard of them in schools, universities, and libraries so far...it's becoming very main stream. In the long run, however, it would be cheaper and easier to just invest in one. I know that Printrbot and Dremel are just a couple around the $300 mark. I'll bet there will be offers around Black Friday and Christmas, too.

Sure thing!

Let me just throw this out there...lots of people don't think about it. The only way investing in this Kickstarter would be a waste of time is if you NEVER buy a 3D printer or NEVER have someone print them for you. For people who want this terrain system, it's a definite investment. There are so many stretch goals planned and Kickstarter exclusives, and epic deluxe miniatures that if they are reached...you'll be getting hundreds of dollars of terrain for free. In some cases, you won't be able to purchase them outside of the Kickstarter. By having the files for when you do get a printer, you're getting a deal you'll never get again.

I know *a lot* of people who are taking advantage of things while they are on Kickstarter and building their 3D banks for when they *do* get a 3D printer, because they know they will.

Just food for thought, thanks again guys!
