My attempt at the Cobbleswarm. I thought it would be fun if they could move, so there are tracks along the steps in which the tracked models can slide across.
A few things to note after printing and painting:
1. I needed to print the steps with supports (you may not), and needed to remove a thin strip of support along the bottom of the tracks. I found stripping it on either side carefully allowed me to peel it out in one piece... most of the time. If that doesn't work, the support piece can be ground down by just sliding one of the tracked models along with a little applied pressure. In future projects, I would design the track to not need these supports.
2. I would recommend not painting the track portion on the tracked models. Apparently, this adds enough thickness and/or friction to hinder their ability to slide along the track.
Please let me know if you come across any other issues.
Thanks for checking it out!
