Description
This is a 1/72 scale model of a fictional AFV that I call the A.M.V.P. Mk.III (Armored Multiple Vehicle Platform) Code name "Chinchilla". The first file is the entire model; the following five files are the model broken up into sections of its parts. I printed this model all in one file on standard resolution, using a support structure and on a raft. That being said, the hull really does needs support and the gun & axles will benefit from a raft and/or grid. I found it really difficult to remove the support structure around the wheels and it was not needed. I also have included the model split into sections as to reduce print area and to allow for custom settings on the individual files. The parts fit tightly, so filing and sanding will probably be necessary to allow all appropriate parts to move freely.
Features include...
Rolling Wheels
Rotating Turret
Elevating Gun
Multiple Gun Mounts

Thanks Nick, I am glad you enjoy, saw the pics, It really looks amazing. That Ultimaker is no joke, those are really nice pictures as well.
Hi Nick, and thanks. I printed it on a fifth generation MakerBot. I really don't remember the layer thickness, There were three options on print quality, I printed this model on the standard setting or middle of the road, I will try to find out, sorry for not being more specific. I hope it turns out well, I would love to see some pics. when complete.
Hi Ben, it took a while but now that we have a Prints feature, I uploaded the results of my print. I love this little thing, lots of fun to play with.
Wow, this is awesome Ben. I know what I'm printing tomorrow! Thanks for the detailed instructions too! What machine did you print this on and what layer thickness did you use?
