Can you not see any of the pics in this thread?

 

[Gerdolan]

Hi Bob, yes I can see the images on this thread, I was curious if the ones posted on Facebook were different? If they are the same, then no worries.

 

[Kingbob]

Ahh, they're of Muzzas build of the same model. In this FB group: Babylon 5

Printed a friend for the Omega

Nice! BTW, there's a rare example of printing something where the texture created by the FDM printing process actually enhances and improves the appearance of the print!

It kinda does actually. Although given the thinness of the spines, and odd angles etc, was a real test of retraction settings, and I did have to do a bit of sanding to clean it up. It will still need to be painted though as there are a couple of seams that need filling.

Come on Kingbob lets King size that Ship!
The bigger the better.

 

[Kingbob]

Because i am slightly mad, i did the math to print a 2m shadow ship

302 hours, and 4.6kg of plastic. Not accounting for any failures.

I should really start painting the Omega instead of starting drawing a Warlock..

Now that's a ship that got way too little screen time! Especially since Ivanova commanded one.

 

[Muzza]

Better put me down for one!
