Amazing. Just wanted to know more about the project. Great work, Lawrence.
This is the cab for a 1:64 scale locomotive. Pipework is 0.3mm minimum, but valve stems are a lot less than that.
The project has a little way to go in terms of detail, but I wanted to test print to prove the concept. This was printed at 30 degrees off vertical, manually supported in Contour. Supports were pretty minimal actually and the result is pretty stunning (if I do say so myself).
Solus Proto (I photoshopped out the brightest orange highlights). Contrary to good advice this had been sitting around in a covered acrylic vat for 6+ weeks. I just gave it a stir and a little top up and it worked just fine.
25/25 with 20 micron layers.
