About this model
Dry land for the far corners of your map, where caravans cross and food runs short. Two crescent dunes and a smaller third one, up to 0.21 m high, are combed by fine wind ripples, and two saguaro style cacti about 0.36 m tall carry tiny blossoms. A barrel cactus, a prickly pear, rounded sandstone boulders and dry grass tufts complete the scene in warm pastel tones. Every dune fades out before the rim, where the sand meets the standard land height of 0.30 m, so desert and grass sit flush in whichever of the six orientations you choose. Counting 16,554 triangles with 2K PBR textures, the sand hex tile 3d model stands 0.66 m tall. In a strategy or board game it reads instantly as barren ground with a movement penalty. The free standing Sand Dune is a loose prop, this desert belongs to the Cozy Hex Tiles Kit grid.
Good for
- Desert region on a strategy map
- Terrain with movement penalty
- Caravan route in a trading game
- Western or oasis themed board

Engine import notes
Unity GLB · FBX
Import the GLB with the glTFast package or use the FBX. 1 m in the file = 1 Unity unit.
Unreal Engine FBX
Use the FBX. The model is built in metres. Unreal works in centimetres and converts on import, so it arrives at real size (0.66 m = 66 cm).
Godot 4 GLB · FBX
Drag the GLB into the FileSystem dock. Godot 4 imports it directly, with materials. The FBX works too (Godot 4.3+ imports it natively).
Blender BLEND · GLB
Open the .blend directly, or import the GLB via File › Import › glTF 2.0.
