Nick Simmerson (verified owner) – May 25, 2017

Tiled floor pattern won’t print at 0.2 layer height, do we have to print at 0.1 to get all the detail?
Matt Barker – May 25, 2017

Yes, it will only show .1 as they pattern is very fine. I should have made it .1mm deeper. I’ll add it to the fixes

Hi,

I was wondering, how big is the church, fully assembled? Love the model, but like to know the full measurements before buying. Thanks!
- Rex Foot (verified owner) – February 19, 2018
  
  It is about 40cm long by 11cm wide, but if you want it to be a centerpiece for Bolt Action it will probably need to be upscaled slightly.

jasper (verified owner) – October 10, 2018

how much upscaling for bolt action.
printend 1 on 100% and its a little to small i think
- Sam Campbell – October 10, 2018
  
  Print at 110-120% for Bolt Action. It will be big though. You can use Sid for size comparison before you print. He’s free to download from here: https://www.printablescenery.com/product/sid-scale-25mm/
werner0nortje – May 23, 2020

Is the model as is when bought the correct size for B.A
- Sam Campbell – May 25, 2020
  
  Yes this is scaled for 28mm.
werner0nortje – May 26, 2020

What is the total gm useage to print the complete church
- Sam Campbell – May 26, 2020
  
  About 700gms at 10% infill.
werner0nortje – May 26, 2020

Thank you Sam. What is the complete print time on the model on 10% infill.
- Sam Campbell – May 28, 2020
  
  It’s about 5-6 days worth of printing.
jonnydw – February 13, 2021

What scale is the church/ruined church?
- Nicholas Jebson – February 15, 2021
  
  28mm in its base set-up, though if you want it for 15mm you just have to scale the model down in the slicer to 60%.
CristianSCooney – March 10, 2022

The “undestroyed” church has an optional back wall to make it shorter … does this destroyed version have the same option so the building can be swapped out when damaged?
- Mike (Printable Scenery) – March 11, 2022
  
  The midsection of this one is open if you don’t stick on the end, so it would work as a ruined version of the shorter church, though you might want to add some extra rubble so its not an entire open wall.
Phil Dodd (verified owner) – February 13, 2025

In October 2018 you said that the model needed to be scaled 110-120% for Bolt Action.
In May 2020 you said it is scaled for 28mm, which is Bolt Action scale.
Has the model been modified to print at the correct scale for Bolt Action as purchased?
merrick smith (verified owner) – February 18, 2025

Ive printed it as is and its too small for Bolt Action . figures will not fit through door height . I always scale my buildings by the door heith to be around 32 to 35mm. I reprinted at 120% and this was perfect. Printed from model STL purchased a few years ago.
- Joanne Boorer (verified owner) – February 18, 2025
  
  Hello Merrick, thank you for bringing this to our attention. I will update the model.
Phil Dodd (verified owner) – April 4, 2025

Hi, I’ve printed the church ruin and it looks awesome, thnaks. Now printing the walls and there are recesses in each end, I assume to put something in to fit them together. What do you suggest? Or is there something in the STL files that I’m missing?
Thanks
