And T3s.


So when we order a fully assembled Fleet-Gu do we have to post fits or do we get all subs w/ HAM-Launchers and 250mms included? What do we do with the surplus parts? Though I guess we could assemble 5 ships out of which 2 potentially would work ingame ^^.

Hi mate,

First of all, congratulation! The choice of Mega was a good one.

May I ask if it was printed using Stereolithography or plastic extrusion/FDM?
Did it take to much time? It is solid or hollow? Where did you get the .stl file?

Sorry for asking, but probabily I will have access to a 3D printer myself, and I collecting tips and ideas to use.

Thank for you time

Castelo

Best post ever!

Thank you!
It was printed using FDM, the object is solid (support grids in the inside). It takes cca 5-6 hours to print it (it is fast, if you want more details it takes more time). For the stl file contact Quinn Narim he is will share all the models with you.

Did you do the design with CAD yourself?

Im bumping this so maybe more ccp see this and then sell the plans for all 3d printers so we can all have our own models.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

The Frigate sized ships will look awsome with a finished paint job. But I think that the Battleships need to be bigger. At the moment what is it, about 10cm long? I think too much detail blurs and becomes a tad messy.

I'd suggest, focus on Frigate sized ships, negotiate a deal with CCP and make some money.

A damned good effort though and I would certainly pay hard cash for a set of Amarr Frigates
