Made a start yesterday on QM2 Multi Colour 3d printed model - will design it for 1:500 initially, then scale down to 1:1000

Modelling from deck plans from Cunard site and various photos, using Fusion 360.
Will then Muti colour 3d print on a BambuLab X1C or H2D.
Hull shape needs a bit of work.  Will mirror it once a few more decks are done.

Found I had got the decks confused at the front - had put the observation deck in one too low - so windows were all wrong too.  Now corrected.

Started 1:1000 print.

I am print some parts - with small details like railing and text on a BambuLab H2D with 0.2mm nozzles.

With the less detailed parts on a BambuLab X1C.

Tiny text

Tiny detail - in initial 2 colour test print of deck6 Aft

Whole ship so far.

Using this approach for the 1:1000 model will hopefully mean I can in the first instance simply print the exact same model at 1:500 scale but all on 0.4mm nozzles, split down into smaller parts when print size does not allow it to fit.

Deck9

Deck11

Deck12

With part printed Deck13 - which I had to cancel due to misalignment of black
image.thumb.jpeg.d457395415dba9a9e26558ecbf5ed3fd.jpeg

Close up of back - a bit mess - so some beefing up of railings needed.

image.thumb.jpeg.d19d32c05dad0cec22b80c3c770c4c75.jpeg
Middle - some balcony glass issuesimage.thumb.jpeg.c3263eab667f64c8b3e759d40ef2ec9a.jpegFront - problem with Cunard text and a few balcony glass issues.image.thumb.jpeg.3a551df8f342b17efb10ab69ec352c91.jpeg

More work required - but fairly pleased so far.
Just need deck 13 print to complete - which is about 3hrs in total.

First test print complete -  the first time I think I have ever used full colour for the first test print - deck 13 came out pretty well - just two of the radar balls didn't quite work.

 

A fair number of updates required - but overall quite happy with the ship so far.image.thumb.jpeg.b858effa10d214ae96a07ec05f1c8b26.jpegimage.thumb.jpeg.7d959387e79505ec70b4d82842fc7a03.jpegimage.thumb.jpeg.a8b5129c0f9e4fa2b1cfd7ce4d64b39d.jpeg
