Shackleton Base miniature dome buildings (board game)

Designer's Description

The board game Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon comes with cardboard tokens to represent the buildings.

These are 3D models of the domed buildings. The shape is a truncated icosahedron (i.e. soccer ball). That's my interpretation of something that would look nice. The faction symbols are crafted on the top and (Bambu lab) “painted” for contrast. These fit on the player mat and shared moon crater board just like the originals. These are somewhat higher than actual domed buildings so the sides are vertical and easier to pick up.

With monochrome printers, you still have the symbol on top (obviously), but will need to relay on piece color more.

The picture shows my models versus the game's original components.

These domes look like they will print a lot smoother
