Cherno Alpha 3D Printing Model | Assembly + Action

ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

Cherno Alpha 3D model represents the Russian Jaeger that served as a defender along the coastline of Russia and the Siberian perimeter. Its service kept this territory out of any extraordinary incidents for six long years. Piloted by a couple, Sasha and Aleksis Kaidonovsky, Cherno Alpha is the oldest Jaeger still used in combat. Its story starts in 2015 when it is launched in service. By 2025, Cherno Alpha is the only survivor Jaeger active in war and serving the mission it was built in the first place.

The 3D printing replica of Cherno Alpha Jaeger from the acclaimed movie will give you the opportunity to have this courageous fighter in the physical world.

ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING

The Cherno Alpha model for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 98 hours in total.

For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible, minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, and make use of the active elements designed by Gambody Engineers, the Jaeger was divided into convenient assembly parts.

All assembly parts in the FFF/FDM 2.0 version are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won’t face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. When downloading any model’s file you will also receive “Assembly Manual” for FFF/FDM 2.0 and DLP/SLA 2.0 versions in PDF and video formats. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly Video” and “Assembly Manual” before getting down to the Cherno Alpha 3D printing model.

The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.

The model’s scale was calculated from the height of the Jaeger. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1:250 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:500 for the DLP/SLA version.
