3D Printed Roman Marching Fort from CentrionStudio on Etsy

Hi folks,

I wanted to share my experience with the 3D printer terrain company, CentrionStudio, on Etsy. I was browsing 3D terrain on Etsy and came across their Roman marching fort\camp, which they call "Desert Wall Kit Roman Camp Walls Towers Kit" for some reason.

When I first looked at it, he had only 20mm, 28mm, and 32mm selections. I reached out to the owner of the company and asked if he could do it in 15mm and he immediately responded and said yes! (Etsy has a built-in messaging system) He updated the webpage in about ten minutes to allow me to pick 15mm 1:100! No that is great customer service!

I ordered the entire fort hoping that it would work with my 18mm WoFun miniatures. I was taking a huge leap as I didn't know the exact dimensions of the final product.

My WoFun miniatures are being used for several different rulesets, but wanted to see if it would work with To the Strongest with 4" squares. Turns out that the fort shrinks down into roughly 2" to 4" sections which works great for my 4" grid. See photo below with ruler.

Here are a couple of the WoFun figures on the fort walls and attacking it. Gives you an idea of scale for these and I think they look outstanding!!! Two wall sections hold a 3-stand unit (WoFun miniatures).

Gallic Warriors attack!!! Just glad I don't have to paint those Gauls!!! Thank you WoFun and Peter Dennis (artist).

CentrionStudio kept me in the loop during the manufacturing process, even sending photos of the printing in progress along with a photo of the entire fort when completed!! She's a beauty! 

He put it on a 1" grid mat which really helped me visualize the size of the product in 15mm.

The full fort option gives you the most options, but you may want to custom select exactly the fort you want as it is highly module. There are two smaller entrances and one large one in the "full fort" option.

There are multiple towers, three different walls without towers too.

Prepping the Fort

I had to change a couple wall sections to better fit my WoFun miniatures which are on 20mm deep bases. For the wall with stairs and wall with weapon's platform I cut off a couple of the raised logs so the bases could fit. 

Before and after shot of the stairs where I took off just the top log. You can see that my 20mm deep base will not rest on the rampart (left) until I removed the first log (right)

Cutting the top log off was quick and simple. I just used an E-Xacto knife and it popped right of.

Filing and removing residue filament strings will be done with both a knife and small triangle shaped file.

Washing with hot\warm water and soft brush will be used for paint prep.

Painting the Fort

When I'm done painting the fort I will post some finished shots along with a large Gallic Warrior assault on the fort! Below you can see two sections is about 4-1/8th inches.

Just wanted to share my excitement for this product. Once again thank you to CentrionStudio GREAT customer service and quick turnaround on the order. I will be ordering from him again in the near future. 

Happy gaming
