Hey dude. Loving your work! Just wondering if you have any advice on getting ZM tiles straight on the grid's you designed? I have set up a few then went to put them together realised not straight and have popped them off to try again!

Hi there, glad to hear!
I the gel super glue I use doesn’t tend to set straight away so I had time to adjust as needed.
I typically focus on pinching at diagonal opposite corners to straighten and feel its even as possible.
I did find my printer had slight variations in the prints, so I would dry test the tile on the grid and rotate it around to see if one orientation was better than another.
Hopefully this was helpful
Hi any chance you can remove the bottom from Ruined Mortalis Columns & Walls to make resin printing easier ?
Hi, do you mean so it’s more hollowed out?
Yes the bottom is sealed, your other columns & walls are just the walls as in no top or base. These obviously have to have a top as it's the ruined texture part but the bottom can be left open and the insides be made hollow. This way it can be printed raised from the bed without the need to hollow it out and add drain holes, the current design is perfect for FDM printing but not ideal for resin printing. So if you could hollow these out to the same thickness as your other sets and then remove the base section it will be perfect for resin printing. Also I bought your Underhive - Thematic Starter Set hopefully you plan to make more sets like it in future.
Not a problem, I’ll hollow it out up to where the ruin starts as much as I can. I’ll upload it as an update. Hopefully get some time over this coming weekend to get that sorted for you.
Thanks for the purchase and support!
Thank you I print large terrain bits in FDM but for smaller pieces I much prefer resin as the print times are substantially shorter and the details are crisper.
Hi, I bought your "Underhive - Enclave Set" and it's great. I would like to know how exactly the "W-C-Barrier-90" and "C-S-Enclave Angle 90" are supposed to be placed on the board.
Overall you files are really great and would be even better with more instructions.
Hi there.
The files are coded for there location in their naming eg.
C = column
W = wall
The files you have asked fit on the column locations on the tile and create the “90” degree corner.
The C-S-Enclave Angle 90 can be seen on the corners on the first cover images.
I just realised that the degree is in reference to the tile and not the model itself - so I guess you could say it's a 45 ° corner (?) :-D. Looks like I wasn’t myself.
Thanks for your reply, now I got it.
Keep up the great work!
