Regelbau M272 coastal artillery battery - gun casement with 15 cm TbtsK C/36 naval gun – 3D printed model

 

Four casemates of regelbau (meaning standard) type M272 requiring 600 square metres of concrete and four tons of steel reinforcement were built at the Longues-sur-Mer battery (in German: Marineküstenbatterie (MKB) Longues-sur-Mer).

Digital Taxidermy is a new design studio producing ranges of 3D printed models and STL files for home printing. Our little world has spawned a series of science fiction stories set in our world under the heading ?A Jolly Fine Dystopia? these stories and the models are heading towards a tabletop skirmish and RPG game still to come.

 

The model is printed in PLA at a 0.3mm layer height. It will have a texture consistent with filament printing.

Smaller scales may be substituted for print in ABS-like resin.

Some clean up and finishing may be required. 

Models are supplied unpainted and It will be printed to order, allow max 10 days for production.

It will be printed to order.  More items like this, STL files and short sci-fi stories are available from our website. Hunt in the virtual wilds for the Digital Taxidermy, you might like what you find.

Some of the images supplied are computer generated and are for reference. They are images of the files that will be 3D printed.
