Printed this first version and was completely satisfied. Month later returned to download, so as I could improve my first attempt. Surprise! The model had been improved and it's amazing. I love this model. Many thanks!
I spent agonising hours printing paul as a distraction for my family - my name is paul and they associate me with the alien because i love marmite. It took ages on a couple of ender 3s. Painted it outside, 20 minutes someone stole it - that is how good this print is.
Excellent file and setup, easy to print, harder to stick together on the head LOL. I am going to print it again but this time mod the file for magnet fitting of the head pieces making the process easier. If you want a life size paul then have at it, fun and always a pleaser, there are no faults with this model at all which I love.
Printed most of the model (at 200 odd pieces, I may have missed a few bits lol). Roughly put together, it looks amazing, not to mention much bugger than I imagined. I'm also currently programming up an Arduino mega for lighting, which is working out well, but not perfect due to limitations of both my knowledge , and limitations of the Arduino programming. The only thing I see that is missing is the fact that the instructions could be a little clearer as to if pieces should be glued together or not, obviously user choice works too though :). Pictures will come at some point when its completed, but its slow going due to the fact that I'm using a battery operated air brush, and only get about 20 mins at a time to paint it.
Easy to print with hardly any supports needed. All pieces fit on a 250mm3 printer no problem. Printed on a couple of P1S printers with Bamblulab Grey PLA in about 4 days. Glued together with CA glue and it's holding up great! It's a very impressive model.
I wait so long and untill now artist of the model not dissappoint me and help make some a little detail to accurate this Enterprise-E
i said something bad or not good word and you will feel bad and not good. I am sorry
Thank you for spending time and energy with this update 2.0
Thank you... :)
I upscaled the FFF model from 100 to 150. Detail turned out amazing. I still have to add the antennas. But these should provide a good idea.
Honestly what drew me to this model the most was the stand that comes with the elite add-on. Admittedly this was not a favorite TIE model in general, but as i built it it rapidly became one of my favorite ships! I'm working on an elite version and will post pix once those are done. all in all a great experience; well done!

I printed this for my wife, as she is a huge Grogu fan. Painted the model in Snapmaker Orca slicer to print multicolor. Did all the parts separately and glued together. Printed mostly in Matte PLA from Overture. The biggest issues I had were in printing the candy cane and the hands. They do not like to print standing up to get the best detail, so I ended up orienting them laying down and using a raft with supports. Palms down with the hands, so the palms side is not the nicest looking because of the supports, but they are hidden by the coffee mug, so not terrible. The fit on everything was great and I look forward to printing the other versions of this for the different Holidays!
Understand I'm not _that_ old (at least in my own mind), but when I was a kid, I was a big model builder. Had all sorts of SciFi models like the Flying Sub, Spindrift, Orion, Enterprise Bridge, Moonbase Alpha, and more. So now I get to be an adult re-living my childhood! The original scale was too big for my room, so I scaled it to 60%. And I must say, the details remained very visible. I used my Snapmaker U1 to colorize the print (used my Bambu P1S for the solid colors) – not a single dab of paint was used. Looks freaking awesome.
This was my frist big 3D print on my Bambu Labs H2S. Rafael3D was very helpful with helping me at parts that I was confused about. I will provide some feedback in some areas that I noticed in the assmebly guide. Rafael3D also gave me some convex lenses for the eyes, but I have not tried them out yet. I need to figure out how to dial in settings for transparent filament. Pretty happy!
I was a bit leery about printing something like this. But after the front body and cockpit was printed I knew it will be good looking.
Here it is in pre-paint. Not sure of the colour scheme, yet.
The bust is amazing the detail is incredible and it fits together perfectly, I printed her in resin and supported her in a way so there is very little clean up, fur and suit text just pop can’t wait to paint !
It is about time a decent model was produced of the USS Cygnus from Disney's "The Black Hole." The modeling of the files for the Cygnus is outstanding. All the parts print well and fit perfectly. The instructions are clear and concise. I'm using a Bambu Lab H2D to print the parts at .12 resolution. It will take some time to print all the parts out, but it is well worth the wait.
as per normal from this designer top quality and well worth the money. this is the second model i've had and definitely not the last
I finally finished this Liberator print and assembly using my 420x420x500 Anycubic Kobra 3 Max and 3v2from to colour print all of the external pieces so no manual painting would be required. I also blew the scale up as high as I could go with these machines so that it finally measured 58" Long x 36" wide and 36" tall (approx). Due to the weight, I couldn't use the supplied optional stand, so I had to make my own using TinkerCAD.
I've linked to a series of Youtube videos showing how it was built. I love the detail on this and it is the best available Liberator model I've found online. If you do scale this up like I have then remember to increase the infill to provide additional strength. I had a problem where my original struts snapped and I had to reprint them 75% infill to take the strain from the weight and angle from the nacelles. There is almost a whole 1Kg spool of filament used in each strut, so they are as solid as rock.
Unfortunately, the main body was done with a mixture of 10-15% infill in an attempt to keep it light, but it turned out to be too little to support a model of this size and you can year the PLA creaking when the model is handled and the area around the orange/yellow panels is the weak point for the model. I'm worried that hanging it from the ceiling could cause the model to snap at this point, so I grabbed a pen, paper and ruler, loaded up TinkerCAD and started designing a table mount that would take the strain. After a few prototypes, I came up with something that supports the body from underneath and also takes some of the weight off the lower struts. In addition, I made 2 large tubes to insert into the model's main body from the engine side which added a lot of structural support and provided a way to mount a light source for the green globes.
I'm going to give some credit to my trusty Elegoo Neptune 4 Max for making the majority of the display stand, which also utilized a stand I had made for an ACE Pro to save time. The internal tubes were done on my Centauri Carbon and FLSun T1 for speed. PVC pipe glue was used for the assembly.
If you decide to print in colour like I did then remember you're going to need to "paint" the parts in Orca yourself. If you're going to paint it in the traditional way then printing time will be way less. If you do decide to go big then consider where you will display it. This model is almost 5 foot long and stretches almost 3 foot wide and tall. In hindsight, I think I should have done it at 75% of that scale, but I love a good challenge.
Remember, Series 3 is due soon on BluRay!!! Here's the video link and a picture of the final model:

This has always been one of my favorite star ships. This print went well and no real issues. Stick with the recommended settings and things will go smooth. this was printed on a P1S and my H2D for the multi color. Thank you for such a awesome model!
fantastic
For a die-hard fan, this model is an absolute must-have.
It's a faithful recreation and even has the option to add internal lighting. I highly recommend it and I'm going to add it to my slicer right now!
Amazing model. Not 100% screen accurate but very close. Printed nicely with resin and the pieces went together smoothly. I made him about 35cm tall. I didn't print the base as I wanted him to be free standing. Keep up the good work.
very well supported, hollowed, etc. nicely detailed as well. wish the instructions were a little more clear on the assembly options but they were enough to figure it out
