I&#8217;ve already got few extra scenarios planned, looking into other areas of the world.

I found a really good maker of 1\/64 scale vehicles on <a href=\"https:\/\/cults3d.com\/en\/users\/guaro3d\/creations\">Cults (an STL site) by the name of Guaro 3d<\/a>. The models are not cheap but in comparison to the 1\/100 files from Bergmann, a lot more detail is saved when you get them up to 1\/50 (my preferred scale). I&#8217;ll do a full post on the files I&#8217;ve picked up at some point, but I think this guy is a gold mine for anyone 3d printing for ultramoderns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One downside to 1\/50 for vehicles it that I am rapidly reaching the maximum size my print bed can handle. It was a limitation I knew I&#8217;d run into when I started off but the trade-off was having the correct sized clean\/cure station and the more reasonable price. However, next time I&#8217;ll know that printing 1\/50 vehicles is definitely something I&#8217;m interested &#8211; for now, I can limit vehicle size or chat to friends about borrowing some print time (maybe).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:49.74929%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"900\" data-id=\"23679\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/?attachment_id=23679\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243357592_3264374527119415_1867772905900070836_n.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"900\" data-id=\"23680\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/?attachment_id=23680\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243352290_3264374523786082_4188206699830516804_n.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.25071%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243316094_3264374597119408_5238334876899113452_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243316094_3264374597119408_5238334876899113452_n.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=750&#038;ssl=1 750w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"900\" data-id=\"23681\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/?attachment_id=23681\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243316094_3264374597119408_5238334876899113452_n.jpg\" data-width=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/243316094_3264374597119408_5238334876899113452_n.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This month also saw some new releases for Spectre. Two squad packs and an add-on, definitely leaning towards the near future\/cinematic look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the agents range, we&#8217;re getting a much more fair weather looking team compared to the rest of the range. These boys (and girls) looks very similar to the agents in the Division 2, with an interesting mix of modern guns. I really like the backpack setup, covered in extra gear and seperate pieces to be played around with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the criminals, we have some masked high tech criminals with a collection of some High Speed looking AKs and ARs. There is a good mix of high end firearms, perfect for showing some well equipped operators. I&#8217;m seeing them in use as some special security agents, perfect for counter-intelligence and dealing with foreign special forces. I can already picture a mission with a mix of regular army and these over-equipped bad guys hunting down some low profile agents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the VGB (or Very Good Boy), I&#8217;m far less interested. I can see what they are going for with it, taking design inspiration from the Boston Dynamics Spot with the addition of the RWS mount but frankly it looks a touch awkward. I much prefer the chunky designs of things like the Ranger from Battlefield 2042 for my ultramodern tech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project Fantasy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PXL_20210908_212442938.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PXL_20210908_212442938.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PXL_20210908_212442938-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Fantasy was again quiet last month.

This is definitely something that I&#8217;ve been on the fence about &#8211; 28mm isn&#8217;t really that good for modern games feature more than one or two armoured vehicles and for world building sometimes you need larger scale battles. Using the Bergmann 1\/100 models, as well as the other STLs I purchased, I&#8217;ve started assembling some forces.
