Who knew DriveThruRPG was not only a great source of source books and modules for the various RPG systems out there, both official and fan made?

But it is also a source of 3D model files that can be used with 3D printers to print your own terrain etc to use in your games.

I stumbled upon this fact while I was looking to see if there were any sarcophagus available to purchase for use in this up coming noob session.

I was looking for the classic knight at rest design on the top of one, and a plain design. And if I was extremely lucky I wanted a knight statue as well. But an altar or plinth that a knight model could be placed on would also do.

My internet travels dug up a photo of the dragonlock models and system. It had a sarcophagus that looked plain enough for what I wanted, and a suitable plain altar. These looked perfect for what I wanted. The link took me to the DriveThruRPG page.

Ok the models were not free. That’s ok. People deserve to be paid for their hard work. Plus the price was very reasonable considering the number of 3D models you got. An added bonus was the coffin for me. They would be handy.

Whilst on the same site I was shown another sarcophagus design. This one was by a different designer but was perfect. It had that knight/figure laying at rest pose I wanted. An added bonus with the design was the lid flips to give you a plain design with candles on it.

At the moment I’m in the process of finding some-one to print 4 of the plain sarcophagus, one plain altar and the fancy sarcophagus for me. I’ve been given one quote that took me aback a little. But after the initial shock worked out about £5 a model which seemed more reasonable.

The funny thing is the players may never see these in the session!

PS DriveThruRPG is an expensive addiction
