Thanks! The main reason for breaking the phaser down into so many pieces was so that different paint finishes could be done to the separate parts without masking. Much cleaner, especially with the metallic parts which may be best painted with buffing metalizers and/or require a clear top coat. Having separate parts also allows each to be oriented in the printer to minimize the number of supports needed and keep the supports off of as many hero surfaces as possible.
There are also some special printing set ups based on how the parts are going to be molded and cast, I'll show those as I do them. A few of the parts which will be printed separately will be joined together after being cleaned up to be molded and cast as one piece.
