    I don't know if I've said this before, but I don't even make models. I watch your videos to remind me that there is always a way to improve. When given a product or solution that seems "good enough", there is always something you can contribute and a new high standard of excellence to establish. Each project is a learning experience. Thank you for going through the trouble to record your process!

    Beautiful build, just one flaw: the Stars and Stripes is from the wrong time period (ours)! The appropriate flag should have 3 rows of 8 stars and 3 rows of 7 (45 states from 1896 to 1908). But otherwise simply stunning what you achieved with 3d-printing 👏👏👏👏

    Nice job. For the small ribbing imperfections caused by 3D printing, I've found that scrapping them at 90 degrees with a sharp X-acto knife gets rid of them precisely, without unwanted loss that's often caused by a sander or grinder. Keep up the work, it's EXCELLENT!

      Judging from this video, and also knowing from a friend who is into 3D printing with filaments (although not into modelling), the surface is very crude.
      David needed to sand and prime again and again and again.
      Also, plastic filament as well as resin is not cheap, the time to calibrate and print everything is also significant.
      A proper injection moulded kit with some photoetch would be better for everybody. For someone with Davis skills, I would say even 100% scratch building may be more effective and give better results.
      David sure made a nice model. But when you look at his 1/700 ships he did with insane detailing, and then compare it with this monstrosity.... I think he just wanted to try something new, or maybe even got sponsored from WoW to do this, and then just finish it ASAP without his usual patience and attention to details.

    Currently in the process of printing this in 1/144. I've modified the funnels to add rivets and make the ladders closer to scale. I've modified the .stl files for the main guns to fit into the casemates as 3'' guns since those are way out of scale.. Doing the hull in FDM and smaller parts in SLA. The deck planks are driving me crazy but theres no easy way to make them close to scale. Planning to use photoetch for ladders and railings. Can't wait for more digital designs for ships.

    Can't help but feel your heart wasn't in this build... I understand the size is a big problem but it feels so far below your usual amazing level of work. For example; I'm surprised how sloppily the black portholes were painted. And I was also expecting you to at least cut out the bridge windows.
    Did you build this because you really wanted to build it or because the sponsor(s) chose it for you..?

    • @idaemonplasmo

      No, no, I did not want to make any significant improvements. I wanted to show how you can paint the 3D printed model. Otherwise, you need a crazy amount of time to make it properly. I think one possibility to make it for the show model is to rescale it to 1/700, replace the railing, scribe new details, and add new ones. In this case, it is better to buy a plastic kit.

    Plastic primer spray paint. It really sticks to plastics and it has a thickness to it. Whilst for detailed surfaces, that's not exactly good, for stuff like the hull of a ship, it's chef's kiss. Best part, it's designed to go on thick, it has a very high tension, so it won't run (within reason).
