MWO Mad Dog 3D model is another Mech from the popular video game.Its role on the battlefield is that of providing support. Its design resembles that of a vulture, with protruding head and reverse-jointed legs. That’s why it was nicknamed the Vulture.The Mech was designed to provide support on the battlefield, keeping an eye on the enemy and attacking when there is the need to do so. There is another reason why Mad Dog 3D model has earned his Vulture nickname – because it waits for its prey like a vulture.Mad Dog/Vulture 3D model showcases all these features and more. The 3D gaming miniature is designed to be poseable, with workable joints on its hands and legs, and with a rotating torso. A lot of work has gone into creating the joints that go inside the 3D model’s legs and hands.Mad Dog/Vulture 3D model for printing was designed in Autodesk Maya modeling program. It is a high-poly model, with a high number of polygons that create the superb outer shell of the 3D model.The model consists of 44 parts, all saved in STL file format. The files are corrected in Netfabb and absolutely error-free. If you need help with slicing programs, read our guidelines on Cura 15.06 and Simplify3D.After printing, the Mad Dog/Vulture 3D model will stand 176mm wide, 118mm deep, and 250mm tall.Due to its workable legs and hands, this beautiful 3D gaming model can be used in table-top games or simply to brag about it to your friends.Buy MWO Mad Dog 3D model STL files for 3D printing by clicking the green Buy button.

They now are adapted to be 3D printed using any slicing program. 3D model files are already available for purchase and download. ________________________ Now, the MWO Mad Dog 3D Model is available in two scale: 1/60 for Version 2 (FDM/FFF) and 1/100 for Version 3 (DLP/SLA/SLS).There are 30 parts in Version 2 (FDM/FFF) and 12 parts for Version 3 (DLP/SLA/SLS).Was added parts of Locks, Connectors, and Joints for better fixing.- One part of Lock (1_Ge_lock_10H_(x20)) you need to print 20 times.- One part of Connector (6_GE_Connector_A_B_(x2)) you need to print twice.- One part of Axis Joint (11_Axis_2_A_Joint_(x4)) you need to print 4 times.- One part of Claw (12_A_Claw_(x4)) you need to print 4 times.- One part of Connector (26_GE_Connector_B_C_(x2)) you need to print twice.- One part of Claw (27_B_Claw_(x2)) you need to print twice.- One part of Axis Joint (28_Axis_1_B_Joint_(x2)) you need to print twice.Version 2 (FFF/FDM):- Is 1:60 scale and after being printed will stand 250 mm tall, 200 mm wide, 133 mm deep - without antenna;- Made with new joints;- All movable elements of the Mech were saved.Version 3 (DLP/SLA/SLS):- Is 1:100 scale and will stand 150 mm tall, 120 mm wide, 80 mm deep - without antenna;- Made with new joints;- All movable elements of the Mech were saved;- Has as few details as possible to keep printing costs down.With new joints from Version 2 and Version 3 you will get next advantages:1. Increases frictional force;2. Possible to up scale or down scale the whole model;3. Printable from any type of material;4. Higher strength;5. Material shrinkage does not affect at strength and friction.STL files with new scale and new joints are already available for download in “Source files” tab for:- FDM/FFF 2.0 Version;- DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 Version.Watch the tutorial video on how to assemble Mad Dog​ MWO 3D Printing Miniature at Gambody YouTube channel. Also, you may like other Mechs from MWO universe.________________________On 10.08.2018 the model was updated. The updates for the Mad Dog include a new version of lower legs and hand guns, remade to correspond to the current version of the Mad Dog mech in the game.STL files are already available for download in the tab “Source Files”, version FFF/FDM 2.1. The names of the files that have been changed are:They are compatible with the FFF/FDM 2.0 version, so you can only print the new parts, and they will fit.______________FAQ: Where can I print a model if I have no printer?How to get started with 3D printing?How to set up my 3D printer?How to choose right 3D model print bed positioning? How to paint printed figurine?This model was tested in Cura 3.4.1 and printed on an Ultimaker 2 in PLA material.- For parts of Locks and Claws you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.- You can print new joints with 20-30% infill. - With the new joints you can up scale or down scale the whole model.- You should print old joints with 100% infill. - With the old joints do not try to up scale or down scale the whole model since it will not be assemble or movable after scale changes.- Using the PLA material you should increase the scale of old joints at 2-3% in your slicing program.- Using the ABS/CPE material you should increase the scale of old joints at 1% in your slicing program.Recommendations: For all parts of Locks and Claws you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.To
