The Nautiloid Returns!
Greetings everyone!
Long story short - we re launching a Frontiers campaign for the Nautiloid - sign up to get notified for the campaign and get a FREE stl!
Now for the full story! As many of you might know, a few years ago we made a massive alien fantasy ship - the Nautiloid!
Back then, the undertaking of creating such a huge model was daunting as our knowledge was more limited and printers not as robust as today. The time confines of a monthly release and some sheer bad luck (as well as hardware struggling to process such a huge model!) forced us to deliver something that was not on par with what we usually produce, especially in terms of the model’s cuts and fittings.
Thus, the Nautiloid was discontinued, and it was not available in our MyMiniFactory shop.
For the past years this model has been constantly requested by our fanbase, so we wanted to give everyone a chance to purchase the model!
We decided to revisit the model and after a whole lot of testing, the Nautiloid is now a model we are proud of and worthy of our fan base!
We communicated this to our friends at MyMiniFactory and we set up a Frontiers campaign for all of you to be able to purchase the model at a heavily discounted price!
We wanted to make things right for owners of the Nautiloid which is why we are updating the MyMiniFactory files after the Frontiers campaign, that means you will have the updated model in your library – there is no need for further action if you have already purchased it or if you have been a subscriber back in the day when Descent into Madness as released on Patreon – you can simply download the new files.
The Nautiloid remains a huge printing project to undertake and will require large amounts of resin and printing time as well as a lot of modelling love, however we are confident that we have done our very best to keep this at a minimum considering the model’s scope!

I jumped in and grabbed the set on release... then got your discount code... sigh
Great to hear. I remember going "wait, didn't this come out already? (check's library) Yea, I have it... huh?" so thank you for explaining and for planning to update it.
YAY! I printed the original (primarily using an FDM printer) but never finished painting it. Maybe it's finally time to get that project back on the table.
As a long-time subscriber, thank you for thinking of those of us who have the original and being kind enough to provide us with the updated files!
Thank you for supporting us!
For patrons who had the original Nautiloid, will the old files on MyMiniFactory be updated or do we have to purchase the files again for the updated version?
Greetings, please see the post above as this is answered in detail, thank you!
Cool! That was the set that made me join the patreon. Can't believe how long it's been since
