ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL
The search for the fabled thirteenth colony led by the Battlestar Galactica crew is convoluted and full of Cylons' traps. But luckily, the Colonial military has extremely capable Vipers to deploy! This primary space superiority fighter and attack craft can accelerate at great speed, fend off enemies with two-forward mounted laser-torpedo guns, and even contains a warbook within the onboard computer to identify potential danger.
Our contributor was overfilled with nostalgia and inspiration when working on the Viper TOS 3D Printing Model in Diorama! He created an incredibly detailed design of the ship paired with a whole scene you could immerse in. The diorama pictures the Viper with its nose cone off, covered hastily with a cloth and undergoing repairs in an old hangar littered with various equipment. Choose the perfect display for your craft and enjoy the timeless design!
ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING
Viper TOS Model in Diorama for 3D printing is a static assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 43 hours in total. The construction and proportions of the craft were thoroughly reviewed for it to look as authentic as possible and print out with a high level of detail.
For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible and minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, the Viper TOS was divided into convenient assembly parts.
All assembly parts in the FFF/FDM 1.0 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 1.0 and DLP/SLA 1.0 versions in PDF format. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly video” and "Assembly Manual" before getting down to the Viper TOS 3D Printing Model in Diorama.
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 length of the Viper which is 8700 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1:32 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:64 for the DLP/SLA version.
