gamesART Launches its MTV Fleet on Kickstarter

A collection of detailed, futuristic trading vessels is depicted against a cosmic backdrop featuring a planet and distant stars. The ships vary in design, showcasing angular shapes and intricate surface details, with a color palette of metallic grays and whites. The text "MTV" is prominently displayed, along with a tagline about printable modular trading vessels for 28mm sci-fi miniature games.

Philipp Posko’s gamesART has launched its latest Kickstarter.

Entitled MTV - Modular Trading Vessels, this new campaign features a quartet of 3D-printable, 28mm scale spaceships. The four ships include:

The Type D short range shuttle:

A detailed 3D-printed model of a futuristic vehicle, featuring a sleek, angular design with prominent headlights and various mechanical components. The model is displayed on a textured surface, with a blurred background that includes a circular object and some indistinct items. The overall color scheme is a monochromatic gray, highlighting the intricate details of the vehicle's structure.

The Type S multi-role, short-range operations vessel:

A large, intricately designed spaceship model in a gray color, featuring angular shapes and mechanical details. The model has prominent wings and various textures, showcasing its futuristic design. It is positioned on a dark tabletop, with some greenery visible in the background.

The Type M mid-range hauler / mobile base / deep-space lab:

A large, detailed model of a spaceship, featuring a flat, ramp-like structure at the front and a complex array of panels and textures across its surface. The ship has a robust, angular design with various protrusions and openings, suggesting functionality for cargo or troop deployment. The model is presented in a light gray color against a dark background, highlighting its intricate details.

Equipped with full bridge control, a two-level structure, and extended interior space, the Type M offers enough room for long missions and specialized operations – from troop deployment to interstellar trading

The Type L mid-range hauler / mobile base / deep-space lab:

A detailed 3D model of a futuristic spaceship, featuring a sleek, angular design with various compartments and structures on its surface. The ship is predominantly white, showcasing intricate paneling and mechanical elements, including engines and antennas. It is set against a dark, starry background, emphasizing its sci-fi aesthetic.

The Type L is equally suited to a role as a mobile headquarters, a command and or a logistics centre. It features three decks and plenty of space in which to place miniatures, cargo et al.

These modular vessels have been specifically designed to be setting / system neutral, allowing wargamers and roleplayers to use them in any sci-fi setting they see fit. They are also optimized for home printers and use the modular Openlock system; this allows a host of options for mixing and matching parts of different ships to create entirely new and unique configurations. This customisation also extends to the decks, which use the modular Gridforge system.

All of the ships in this campaign are available as STL files or—ideal for Neanderthals such as I who don’t even own a pair of 3D glasses, never mind a printer—as physical products.

Add-ons for this campaign include a smorgasbord of small, 28mm scale ships and vehicles released previously by gamesART over the past two years.

See the Kickstarter campaign for more details.
