A mate has printed a 200% Tie Scimitar for me as a favor and to see how it went. It looks great; printed on a self built machine with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.2mm layers. Very impressed. The model will need some clean up; as is the norm, but it looks good. there is some lift and a few parts have wrapped bases to clean up. The large model is 1/36 (close enough to say 1/32) but compared to my 1/72 print it looks huge. I thought 1/24 would have been better sized but now I think the details would have been to big and too sparse. I might do some kit bashing and thin styrene panelling anyway. |
