ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL
The USCSS Prometheus, a symbol of human daring and technological prowess, was a scientific vessel built by Weyland Corporation. The iconic ship, featured in Alien franchise, was at the heart of a fateful mission to the distant Zeta Reticuli system, where it confronted the horrifying legacy of the Engineers. The tragic fate of the Prometheus serves as a chilling reminder of the dangers that lurk in the darkest corners of the universe.
Our contributing artist has meticulously recreated the Prometheus, capturing its iconic design. With its remarkable articulation, the Prometheus model offers endless possibilities for customization. The ship's movable parts, adjustable features, and alternative parts allow you to create a truly unique display piece. Add the USCSS Prometheus to your collection and experience the thrill of owning a piece of sci-fi history.
ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING
USCSS Prometheus model for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 126 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 craft 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 and video formats. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly Video” and “Assembly Manual” before getting down to the USCSS Prometheus 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 length of USCSS Prometheus which is 130000 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1:200 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:400 for the DLP/SLA version.
