The original file was a single piece - I cut it into 2 halves to fit on my printer. Th eyes were open for lighting but I filled them with clear resin, tinted red, sanded and polished

Album info

This is a 3D printed model of the Trade Federation Advanced Droid Bomber, as seen in the Star Wares: Episode 1: Battle for Naboo video game. The model is printed from a file from Zarkus Model Kits and available on Thingiverse. The original files are scaled at 1/144 but I upscaled them to 1/72 - I only scaled them up by 172.5% however as at 200% it just looked too big compared to other 1/72 models.
