Description
Introducing my first true multi-color Miniature City! 🎨
Complete re-creation of my original Lower Manhattan miniature using new techniques and tools.
This new model includes ZERO non-manifold edges and separated objects for easy coloring!

The filament colors used in the pictures are based on personal preference and the colors I had available.
Try customizing all six colors—terrain, roads, buildings, vegetation, water, and the frame—to suit your style!
I highly recommend Matte filaments!
This model was designed to be printed with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.16mm layer heights.
Try using a 0.2mm nozzle (0.08mm layer heights) or scaling up for even finer detail!
Note: If roads or other small details disappear after slicing, try lowering the extrusion/line width of external perimeters (outer walls) closer to 0.4mm OR use Arachne walls (can also enable “Detect Thin Walls”).
This model measures almost exactly 6.7in by 4.7in (170.5mm X 119.5mm) and should fit most 5x7 frames (assuming frame lip/overlap is around a quarter inch). Feel free to change the scale/size of the model(s) to meet your needs.
Personally I use these cheap frames from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C8HY7YSQ
And blue printer paper: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00006IDQT
I also included a fully printable frame (including a 1mm thick water plate) designed to fit all my miniature cities.
A frame is not required! This model looks great by itself and can be displayed almost anywhere.
