This is a 1/12 scale model of the beautiful spaceship from the classic Harryhausen film: "First Men In The Moon". It's been a work 'in progress' since I got an UPBox a few X-masses back, and saw an old deep-sea diver action-figure on Evilbay. (Search for Madelman figures. They're Spanish. I suspect they're actually 1/11 scale, often given as 1/10, but look right for this at 1/12. And just like the film, they don't have any gloves on!)
Most of the parts for this have been gathering dust on my workbench since life was interrupted by an accident a couple of years ago. And then I got distracted by other bright shiny projects... I've test-printed all of the files and done a partial assembly, so I'm pretty sure they'll all fit together properly.
I've been printing in ABS and having trouble with shrinkage and distortion on the major frame parts (which is why they have the mysterious half-round cutouts on the backs)
You might want to start out at 1/2 size (ie: 1/24) to get a quicker result.
