Summary
Update 2026.01.11: Upladed a new hull and forecastle, as the assembly of the main deck was not possible without some extra work in the original version.
You will have to print the back wheel parts twice for a complete model.
The model is separated into a couple of separate parts to simplify painting it. If you feel brave enough to paint it as a single piece, then just import the stl files in a 3D editor, most of the parts should be in ther correct positions. You will have to duplicate and position the right back wheel parts though.
A 10mm scale Marienburg landship for Warmaster. With crew. I scaled it to a regular Warmaster base, that made it roughly as large as a steam tank, so it can be an alternative for the warmachine. The crew is not merged to the other parts, so it is relatively easy to separate them if you would like to resize the ship. Rescaling it to 140% would fit a 40x60 base.
LennyFace asked me to do a landship last year. I always like to fiddle with machines. It means I usually don't have to rely on other miniatures or AI, just pure modeling fun. Though in this case I used a couple of sources...
Post-Printing
Assembly should be intuitive. But here are some pointers:
- Glue the main deck into the hull before the forecastle is glued on the top of it.
- The inner part of the back wheel has a slightly longer axle part on one side, this should face the outer part (the bolts on the spokes should face outwards).
- I suggest assembling the back wheels without glue at first and then dripping a bit of glue on it so that it can be turned into the correct position. The spokes of the inner part should be between the ones of the outer parts.
- The axles of the back wheels turned out to be a bit more fragile then intended, handle it with care.
