Dear Stellarscapes Backers!
As we've been diligently fulfilling our weekly set deliveries since the last update, we thought it's about time to share another progress report alongside some exciting news. Let's start with the summary:
The Refinery Interior Set was just delivered today, Hooray!
We are on track to deliver the Animal Insignia Statue Set and the highly requested revised version for R4 Prolet Hab Set (featuring improved walls, fully redesigned columns, and 19 new models!) next week.
We expect to finalize the two other remaining add-on sets (Maglev Train & Plant Interior) in about two weeks.
The design & modeling process is moving smoothly on the $75K Extra Core Set Power Control Room. See some preview renders below.
The work on universal build instructions has commenced. Read details below.
Our Facebook Group has grown to be almost 100 members strong! Join today to get exclusive updates and direct support from the Stellar Artisan team & our amazing superbackers. https://www.facebook.com/groups/stellarterrain
It's been really an unexpectedly long journey but our 3D team has been doing truly a stellar job to finalize all remaining sets, including the incredible amount of extra content we promised across all core & add-on sets. With the recent delivery of the Stretch Goals Package and Refinery Forge Interior Add-on Set, we've never been this close to the finish line. As noted above, we'll continue with our weekly set deliveries and hopefully complete this monumental project within three weeks.
Our top priority right now is to finalize the work on the $75K Extra Core Set Power Control Room, concurrently with the remaining add-on sets, since all of our backers have been patiently waiting for it. And we must say, we are having a lot of fun designing & modeling those computer terminals, dashboards, and server racks. Here are some preview renders from work-in-progress designs for you to see what's coming your way soon.
Lastly, we know many of you have been also waiting for the instructional guides for our core sets. As we mentioned before, our primary focus so far had been on completing the set deliveries with all the extra free content we promised as soon as humanly possible. And we are happy to announce that we are finally in a position to make parallel progress on the guide documentation while wrapping up the few remaining sets. One point that we really want to reiterate here is, every single Stellarscapes model was designed modularly, so any assembly option you see on the Kickstarter page set listings is only that, an option. Any set can be arranged in so many different ways and taking the fact that models are compatible across different sets into account as well, there is virtually no limit for what you can create with Stellarscapes models. Having said that, we of course welcome the interest in the specific designs we used to present our core sets and it will be our next top priority to provide easy-to-use instructions as we are almost done with deliveries. We'll first deliver a high-level instructional document that explains the specifics of how modularity works and instructions for a few of the most popular core sets. If you have a favorite set that you'd like to get instructions for sooner, please leave a comment on this update and tell us what you like.
As always, thank you so much for believing in our crazy project and we appreciate everyone's support & feedback ❤️
We are almost there!
$75K Extra Core Set, Batch 2 Delivery, Facebook Group & Late Pledge Packages!
over 2 years ago
– Thu, Sep 30, 2021 at 01:55:44 PM
Dear Stellarscapes Backers!
We are getting closer to the next big delivery date this week and we want to share another update with some important news. Here is the TL;DR version:
The $75K Stretch Goal core set concept is finally decided. It's called Power Control Room and will be awesome! See details below.
The second delivery batch is dropping this Thursday the 30th, Yay!
Our private Facebook Group is live!
The late pledge packages are finally available on the Backerkit pre-orders page!
We are excited about announcing our core set concept for the $75K Stretch goal that each backer will receive! After reading through every single survey and careful consideration, we decided to pick the most popular request that also fits well with our existing maps. We noticed many of you asked for a 'command/control center' concept in different words:
"A central control complex that could tie into all three."
"A control center similar to Chernobyl nuclear plant to monitor the industrial devices in the other cores sets."
"Computer consoles and databank units in the grim sci-fi style with a gothic arch motif. Little control rooms with cramped pipes and consoles to put inside the walls of the buildings."
"Control room with large screens and lot of control panels."
The versatility of this concept was quite interesting for us since it could be easily used in combination with virtually any of our other core sets. And we were more inclined to add a new set to our most beloved Fusion Power Plant map, which included the #1 and #2 most popular core sets. So we are calling this core set Power Control Room and it will have a familiar visual style with other Power Plant core sets, including chaotic cables, modular computer terminals, server racks, and similar models. Additionally, we are working on an impressive central piece that will sure to be a head-turner on any tabletop. Briefly, you can expect a lot of cool new models coming your way soon!
We are getting ready to deliver another big batch of sets this week. Here is the list of sets that will be delivered, starting on Thursday afternoon:
For the few remaining core sets and add-on packages, we'll make weekly deliveries every Friday in October. We are in the final optimization stage for all remaining core sets (P4, R5, H5), so these sets will be likely to be part of Batch 3 delivery on October 8th. All deliveries (with the possible exception of the 75K core set) will be finalized in October. All add-on sets will be delivered in two versions. Every Star Tier backer will receive a free version of add-on sets (including the interior set they selected) that will include the original scope of those sets. Anyone who purchased any of the add-on sets will receive the expanded version of that set with extra models. For example, the free version of the Industrial Column Pack includes 12 column models and the expanded version comes with 24 columns.
In other news, the highly requested Facebook Group is finally live! It's a private group that's only open to our backers and you just need to provide your Kickstarter email to gain access. We still need to approve join requests manually so your patience is appreciated.
Last but not least, we launched 4 new special late pledge packages on our BackerKit Pre-order store, so now is the perfect time to join our community and enjoy the best damn 3D printable terrain ever designed!
Let us know here if you have any questions, thanks!

Dear Stellarscapes Backers!
As we are getting close to the first major delivery milestone this Friday, we'd like to make the last call for completing your pledge survey. This is also your last chance to make any changes to your pledge based on the original Kickstarter offerings. The final deadline was just extended from August 31st to September 2nd for latecomers.
If you want to upgrade your pledge tier, please send us a direct message on Kickstarter and our team will be able to help you with such a request. For any add-ons or specific sets in addition to your pledge package, you can make those purchases directly on Backerkit via your survey link in the next 48 hours.
For anyone who already completed their surveys & finalized their pledge decisions, no further action is needed. We appreciate your timely input & feedback.
Now that the majority of the surveys are in, we'll review your preferences for the extra core set that we promised as our $75K stretch goal and decide on the final concept considering popular suggestions. Once the concept is picked, we'll share the details in a future update.
We can't really wait to deliver the first batch of Stellarscapaes sets we've been painstakingly working on this Friday and as always, we appreciate your amazing support & feedback ❤️
