Battleship Alabama

Update 23/7: Added floatplane (Curtiss SC-1). Available under “Download STL” files.

Update 25/7: Updated Assembly Guide for AA gun placement.

Update 29/7: Revised Aviation model for better printability, .3mf updated to include Sprueless parts.

Hello again! Sorry for the long wait, but here is another printable warship model featuring the USS Alabama BB-60 as depicted in World of Warships.

Model is at 1:625 scale and are remodeled from the ground up with the goal of maintaining details while also presenting all the moveable mechanics. Features includes:

• Print in place main turret and secondaries with built in supports and moveable barrels.
• Fits 256mm2 print bed.
• Separate deck, upper, and lower hull to allow different colored print without AMS. 
• Sprues and mouse ears built into the smaller parts to guarantee bed adhesion (Sprueless version also available).
• ~150gr of material.
• Standee and nameplate for display.
• Assembly guide included.

The main reason why this has taken so long, is because I've also made an accompanying video of how to make it! It outlines every details and steps I took to achieve printability on FDM printers, I have it linked below:
