Tintin submarine

cults3d

Hello everyone, Here's my version of Tintin's submarine. The model is available in two different sizes, 50cm and 1m. As I've been a big Tintin fan from an early age, I wanted to make a large submarine with as much detail as possible. In order to be accessible to the majority of commercial machines such as the Prusa Mk3, Ultimaker 2 or Ender-3, for example, the submarine is divided into several modules no larger than 200x200x200mm. For playfulness and to avoid painting, I chose to cut the submarine according to color. The top (black) and bottom (white) modules have mounting nipples forming sections. The individual sections are joined together using round connectors. Some small parts (when too small) have a hole to allow 1.75mm filament to be used as a connector. For the 50cm model, the dashboard switches were too small, so I drilled holes to replace them with a piece of 3D filament. The complete assembly requires the use of glue. Every detail has been designed to be easily printed with a Ø0.4mm nozzle, I've done everything to reduce excessive overhangs. The .stl files are already oriented to obtain the best possible printing result. ►Edit of 07/08/20, Modification of certain parts to improve their quality during printing, addition of 3 different canopies, one hollowed-out structure, one solid, one cut-out structure + pdf for cutting the panes out of 0.2mm transparent plastic (file cover sheet type). ►Edit of 12/09/20, correction of two errors in the last two fuselage files, which prevented the installation of the horizontal and bottom fins of the shark ►Edit of 10/01/21, Final version, improved instrument panel and steering wheel/guidon to match the 1991 cartoon, minor modification to the dorsal fin, modification to one of the canopy variants which was too thin. ►Edit From 11/01/21, Finished project, 100% printable model, I added the molds to make the thermoforming canopies, as well as the model size 50Cm. Warning: This is a fan-representation from the 1991 animated series "Les Aventure de Tintin" . Don't forget to post your creations too, and don't hesitate to contact me if you need any help.
