I recently 3D printed a model that I created in MOI and I have a blog post that goes in the process I followed, from concept art, through modeling, printing, prep and painting.

If you're interested in the details, the post is here: https://tedlindsey.com/scout-ship-from-concept-to-model/

A Space Opera! Bravo!

It turned out great Teddy, thanks for posting it and for recording your process too!

Glad you like it, Michael! And thanks for creating my all-time favorite modeling application. I’ve used quite a few modelers over the years, but have yet to find anything close in terms of elegance or effectiveness for hard surface modeling. Keep up the fantastic work!

I would love to know how you did the panel lines. It's something I'm struggling with on a Sky Galleons of Mars project right now.

Thanks for sharing, what a lovely model! The one thing I can really remember from playing traveller was having to spec the tonnage of computers you need for your ship to function :)
