Description
"Intelligence, like a weapon, must be honed."
MODEL: Recon
SERIES: Blackbird
STYLE: Anti-caution
When running there are few things more valuable than information. This simple fact makes the RECON SHELL a lethal addition to any crew. The RECON's ability to gather intel in real time to convey nearby enemy locations, hunt wounded targets, signal when it's been pinged by a rival RUNNER threat, and engage with its personal tracking drone make it a one-stop shop for engagement awareness and strategic planning/counteroffensive maneuvering.
Channel your inner weaveworm and print your own articulated runner based on the Recon shell from the game Marathon. This model is built off of the Carbon 13 as a base, using parts from both F & M models, as well as unique parts from the video game Marathon by Bungie. I've included a single filament version as well as the painted files I used to print the Anti-Caution variant of the Recon.
At 100% scale, the Recon stands at about 5.5 inches tall.
I followed the Carbon 13 recommended print settings and enabled supports as certain paints will need them.
Layer height: 0.15mm
Infill: 20%
Supports: Normal (auto)
Brim: only as needed
Perimeter (heh) generator: Arachne (heh)
You can follow the general assembly instructions here: Carbon 13 Assembly Instructions

See you on Tau Ceti, runner.
