A replica of the M40 grenade wielded by Colonial Marines in the iconic movie Aliens. Print Settings Rafts: None, Supports Are Unnecessary But Recommended Because of The Overhanging Sections Above it. Also for Optimal Printing, Use The Orientation Provided with the Parts. Infilled And Resolved With Flexibility at Your Discretion. Post-Printing Steps: Finishing Process Begins Here After Completing A Standard Smoothening Session via Sanding and Filling techniques on My M40 Print, Then I Gave It A Professional Coat Of High-Gloss Plasticote Chrome Finish To Highlight its Metallic Shine. To be precise, The Tiny Gold Primer located At the bottom Should Maintain its Original Golden hue, The Main Cap Can either be Custom-Printed in Bright Green or Blood-red Colours Alternatively Painted With Absolute Precision afterward. However one More crucial Touch was adding a Clean White Stripe to it, This was made achievable By Wrapping A Piece of Transparent Adhesive Tape around the Main Body Of The M40 and afterwards Coating It with A Smooth layer of Light white paint.
