Type A Free Trader was first released in our Kickstarter campaign Traveller Starship Miniatures. This package includes one starship but it comes in two different scales. An iconic ship from the Traveller Role-Playing Game, the model is based on the version by Ian Stead and has been beautifully rendered in 3D printable form.
We have designed the starship miniatures to print in two scales. The first, '1:270' scale, was popularised by the X-Wing tabletop dogfighting game, and this version of the ship is scaled accurately to our other ships from Traveller Starship Miniatures. It make for great display piece, and while large on the table, it's not so large as to be impractical.
The second scale is 'Tactical scale', which scales the ship down to fit on a 1 inch hex base stand. The different campaign miniatures are not in scale to each other, but these are of a practical size to be played on a one-inch hex map for tactical combat.
You will need a 3D printer or print service in order to print the parts. The parts have been designed with both FDM (filament) printers and SLA (liquid resin) printers in mind. FDM versions are optimised for printing at 150 microns (0.15 mm layer height) using PLA. Resin versions have been pre-supported with unsupported versions also available.
This package includes one miniature starship (in both 1:270 and Tactical scale), clips and stands:
