3D printing - Ships from The Expanse

So, I got a Bambu X1C with an AMS for christmas and I have been printing non-stop since then. I wanted to share 3 of the best models that I have printed. If you have ever seen the TV series The Expanse, then you will recognize these ships.

Deimos - Orion Class Heavy Frigate:

• 23.5" long
• 4.3 pounds
• 250 parts
• 200 hour print time
• 20 hour part clean up and assembly time
• 5 turrets and 14 missile launchers

Rocinante - Corvette Class Light Frigate:

• 20" long
• 3 pounds
• 230 parts
• 150 hour print time
• 18 hour part clean up and assembly time
• 6 turrets

Scorpio - Morrigan Class Patrol Destroyer:

• 14" long
• 1.6 pounds
• 120 parts
• 60 hour print time
• 10 hour part clean up and assembly time
• 2 turrets

All 3 ships are in the same scale. Here they all are together:






The 3D modeler of these ships has authored more ships from The Expanse, but to match the scale of these three ships, they would be just way too big. If I were to print the largest ship, it would take 400 hours, it would weigh 24 pounds, it would be 6.5 feet long, and the filament cost would be over $200 with an entire roll worth of filament wasted due to the supports, the purges, and the prime towers. I don't know where I would display that

Thanks for looking

 

Great series - those are pretty badass. Nicely done.

 

The Expanse may be the greatest show ever. Those are awesome models!

 

Link to the creator of these models?

These are awesome and from my favorite show!

 

I'd like the link tot he creator also.

 

I liked the first season.

After that I could only hear "Da Beltahs" so much.
