there is a lot here but hope you enjoy it :)

Thanks chaps, still need to have a proper game with just 100% DE.

I am using AutoCAD and it is a bit like working with stone, in that when you mess up it is unforgiving compared to other programs but it is what I got at work.
I am intrested to see how they turn out to lol.
The website i am using is called 3D hub and they have access to lots of 3D printer sights and act as the middle man, should be getting my stuff next week so will post a picture :).

The other bits I will 3D print at a later date when I have time to paint them. The pot noodle turrets main gun is a mantic lamppost and is what inspired the whole idea in the first place lol.

Thand darklighter, I created them for that reason and id I can get a decent print of them and they are the right scale (had to go by eye) then I can gift you the file to get some printed yourself :)

Sound cool man I'd very much appreciate that... I'd also need a link to reputable printing service with good resolution prints and I've no clue, lol.
