1/700 & 1/350 scale BH Cygnus builds

[szarchie]

HI - new member but long-time planning to build the Cygnus and as now have a 3d printer am ready to make a start.
I would be grateful if you or anyone else could post a round up of resources.
I have, what I thought was a complete set stl files for the PDave parts (I got them back in 2014 when you could download from Shapeways)
So would like to know if there are still valid or if revisions exist.

Thanks in advance

Good luck with the build. I am very interested in seeing how the files print on and SLA or FDM printer. The Shapeways parts were done on SLS printers so no supports needed. Please post how its working out.
I did a build log here so might be some extra info.

USS Cygnus 1/700 - The Black Hole

I started this build thread over at Studioscale Modelers but it seems a little quiet there. I hope it's Ok to post it here too. I have been a fan of the USS Cygnus from Disney's The Black Hole since it was released back in 1979. Showing how old I am now! The MPC kit that was released left a...

Researchers propose linear scan-based vat photopolymerization for 3D printing ultra-high viscosity resin

Compared with other three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques, vat photopolymerization (VPP) is a widely adopted technique for its advantages of high-efficiency, large build envelope, economic, and versatile material options.

3D printing of ultra-high viscosity resin by a linear scan-based vat photopolymerization system - Nature Communications

The printing mechanism of vat photopolymerization 3D printing technique places strict requirements on the fluidity of the UV-curable resin. Here, authors broaden the processing windows of the UV-curable resin using synchronous spreading and linear detachment method to 3D print high-viscosity resin.

Note how the Eiffel Tower print is both highly detailed and flexible…perfect for the towers and antennas at least.
