3d Printed Stargate Ships

[Falcon Horus]

I have the 3d models but it takes allot of time and resin to print them. I find my printer head has trouble dealing with the size of the model.

Okay, officially jealous of you having a 3D-printer.

I've been looking for 3D printers again..

Reprap printers seem to be good quality and a reasonable price.. And if you have access to a 3D printer already you can print most of the parts you need

And I have 90% of a puddle jumper model.. As well as Destiny and a 304

However, items like the models are more likely rated as fan art and are not really regulated by those copyright laws, because they are usually produced by individuals in very small quantities and usually of items not produced by the mainstream companies/franchises.

Yes I have not thought about fan art... usually the artists like having the credit for their art... So I see we are here on the little thin line between legal and illegal...

And thanks for the suggestions

Hi all, the 3d stargate ship models being sold on ebay can be downloaded from shapeways and thingyverse sites for around $15 not $100 like they want on ebay. here is an easy link to look for them. http://www.stlfinder.com

Shapeways and thingyverse totally rock!

And not just because of the ships. There's plenty more to print on there...

Now they have a SG-1 Stargate with a moving ring!

FH!! There are people! !!

But.. the picture shows how it came out of the printer.. My 3D printer really likes natural colour ABS.. I'm not sure why but it just prints everything better in this colour. White has very clear layers in the print.. Blue was just a mess and we must never speak of it again.. But the natural colour (listed on Amazon as "nature"), I guess is un-dyed ABS, prints perfectly every time, minimal steps between layers and it's the cheapest filament for my printer

I could print things.. if you send filament

Came across this on ebay

Hi guys, it's been a long while since i been on these forums; i was looking around here when i found this thread on these 3d printed models. i have been looking for a larger version of these ships for a while as i do have the small 1/2500 scale ones from Saltire Technologies and they're great but i always wanted them to be bigger.
so when i saw the link for these models on ebay i took a risk and bought both the prometheus and daedalus for $130 total for both. i ordered them back in jan/18 and was shipped on the jan/23, after a long few weeks i just got these yesterday in the mail.
overall these are amazing they feel well constructed, the details on them are really good; its especially well detailed on the prometheus. the daedalus is good but not great, its my favorite ship but i feel there is some detail missing during the printing process, but more so i feel the 3d model he used to print from must not have been finished like the modeler didn't complete the ship before it can be use for printing but still its a great ship.
as for prometheus as i said they detail is amazing like every bit of panel detail is there as well as the windows. the prometheus has so much detail i can't stop looking at it.
here are some pics onf the two models with comparison.
Both ships:

with their 1/2500 scale counter parts:
with the daedalus its a minor difference, 3d print is 11/3/8"

with the prometheus however is a huge difference, 3d print is 10/5/8"

with the DST Enterprise-E (1/1400)

i know there were talks about how this is wrong and it's a not a official product of MGM but i highly recommend getting these. i got these with the best offer so you can get these for a sweet deal, and these are well package in boxes and bubble wrap with the daedalus with zip ties. i do plan to order again from this guy soon as he has the destiny on his site along with a mini atlantis model.
hope you enjoy this review.

I have several buddies with 3D printers, and one who's actually printing a Daedalus at the moment -- much larger than your model though.

Cool, i will admit i would have liked mines to be a bit larger, but i'm ok with this size as i don't have much room anyways. how big is your friend daedalus going to be? also does he plan on selling it to others or is it more for himself?
