woo also how did you make those baseplates for the boat
most likely just a single piece or he just glued both
looks like a piece of foam board

also idk if its me or what but those layer lines on the side might suggest the printer needs some maintenance..?

im not an expert
anyway back to the first image thats a pretty good fleet for a start... 2 destoryers for escort, a missile cruiser, 2 frigates for asw and other escort duties and the LHD as the flagship

No did some just recently, it's because it's 1/2400 scale so it's really really small, the tower on the krirov is that way on the 3d model

vagrant sundial
print time?
varies between scale, for 1/2400 i used about 17 min, for 1/1200 i used 1 hour, but again, varies from printer to printer and print settings

wait wait wait you put a popiscle stick into a printer and printed a docx file or smth
or am i just stupid
maybe it was the wording you print out and then cut and then glue to stick
vagrant sundial
I print the ships, I cut the popsicle sticks, paint them both, glue them together, print out on paper the name, and then tape it on underneath
valid stirrup
nvm im stupid why didnt i just think of that
and i dont think those freighters in the first pic are quite to scale with the rest of the fleet as i kinda thought they would be as big as the QE but eh 🤷♂️
vagrant sundial
No they are to scale, but it's not containers on them, it's cars then it is to scale
It's based off of the M/S Gardwill https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6682921 and is scaled accordingly
72 meters long

ah k they so small tho lol
vagrant sundial
Yes small ships, the elizabet is just huge
