The 3D printable spaceship model Universal Shuttle Type – G – DS has been designed as a terrain piece for science fiction tabletop, skirmish and roleplaying games with 28-32mm miniatures.
Dimensions
It is about 41 cm long, 34 cm wide and 15 cm high, so it can work as a real centerpiece for your gaming table.
Size Comparison
This version of the USTG is much smaller than the standard base model.
Modular Design
The drop ship’s front section is much shorter than in the base version and can be connected also to the back sections of the standard base model and the “Big Boy”.

“Captain Zara gripped the controls of the Universal Shuttle Type – G – DS, her eyes scanning the vast expanse of stars before her. As they approached the uncharted planet, Zara glanced back at her crew, each ready at their stations. The assault version’s extra maneuverability would come in handy for the tricky descent, and she silently thanked the engineers who had the foresight to add those additional wings and fin. With a deep breath, she engaged the powerful engines, feeling the familiar surge of acceleration as they plunged into the unknown.”

The civil version comes with a single big weapon which is mounted centrally under the belly. There is space for 2 pilots and 8 passengers or crew and some cargo. Two powerful engines assure great speed.
Assault Version
The assault version is more maneuverable thanks to additional wings and a fin and comes with two rocket launchers.

Printing Information for the Universal Shuttle Type – G – DS
At gamesART, I provide STL files for you to print at home or through a 3D printing service. This way, you only need to print the parts you want, saving on materials and reducing your environmental impact.
FDM 3D Printing
- The model is optimized for FDM printing, tested on my Prusa MK3s and MK4s with a 0.4mm nozzle at 0.2mm resolution for optimal results.
- For intricate parts, I recommend my X1C, printed with PLA and ultra fine settings to capture finer details.
- While most models do not require supports, any parts that do will be clearly noted in the included instructions.
