If you are a true fan of Eve Ships, then Astero 3D model for 3D printing will be a perfect addition to your frigate's collection of armored battleships. Its capabilities include agility and tenacity that adhere to the mantra of explorers and rescuers: stay safe, stay hidden, and use every tool at your disposal.This ship is known for its capability of venturing into dangerous territories. It is equipped with a cloaking device, making it almost unspotted when passing through dangerous space. Although smaller than other battleships, Astero has powerful armor which helps protect its crew members from the attacks of the enemy.Our 3D designers have crafted this stunning Astero 3D print design for all the fans out there. Buy Astero 3D printing files, pay with your PayPal account or credit card and download those 23 STL files. Print them out and enjoy having an exclusive spaceship model, either on your desktop or shelf or use it as a piece in your board game adventures.________________________The Astero 3D Model was reviewed and got 4 new versions for 3D printing. Changes came to all its details. Here is a list of changes and improvements:- Now there is a new version FFF/FDM 2.0 with 1/200 scale, the versions FFF/FDM 2.1 and DLP/SLA 1.0 with 1/400 scale, and a version SLS 1.0 with 1:2000 scale that can be used to create your large collection of all EVE Online ships;- The main body with the platform for the ship were divided into several parts for better 3D printing;- All elements of the model were divided in such a way to print them more accurately and get a nicer model after printing and assembling it;- All STL files have been checked and repaired in Netfabb and no errors were shown;- Model fixed by the Locks. One part of Lock (2_Ge_lock_10H_x70) you need to print 70 times for FFF/FDM 2.0 version. One part of Lock (2_Ge_lock_10H) you need to print 7 times for FFF/FDM 2.1 version;Here are the scales for new versions:FFF/FDM 2.0 version dimensions:After being printed will stand - 322 mm tall, 280 mm wide, 310 mm deep; - with platformFFF/FDM 2.1 and DLP/SLA 1.0 version dimensions:After being printed will stand - 161 mm tall, 140 mm wide, 155 mm deep; - with platformSLS 1.0 version dimensions:After being printed will stand - 120 mm tall, 27 mm wide, 33.5 mm deep; - with platformThere are 26 parts for FFF/FDM 2.0 version, 19 parts for FFF/FDM 2.1 version, 18 parts for DLP/SLA 1.0 and 3 parts for SLS 1.0 version.Watch the tutorial video on how to assemble Astero 3D Printing Model at Gambody YouTube channel. _______FAQ: Where can I print a model if I have no printer?How to get started with 3D printing?How to set up my 3D printer?How to choose right 3D model print bed positioning? How to paint printed figurine?This model was tested in Cura 3.3.1 and printed on an Ultimaker 2 in PLA material. Below you can find printing recommendations for Cura and Simplify3D softwares.Recommendations: For all parts of Locks you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.To avoid printing problems, we recommend the following settings:QualityLayer Height: 0.1 mmInitial Layer Height: 0.3 mmLine Width: 0.4 mm Wall Line Width: 0.4 mm   Outer Wall Line Width: 0.4 mm   Inner Wall(s) Line Width: 0.4 mm Top/Bottom Line Width: 0.4 mm Infill Line Width: 0.4 mm Skirt/Brim Line Width: 0.4 mmSupport Line Width: 0.4 mm Initial Layer Line Width: 100%ShellWall Thickness: 0.8 mm    Wall Line Count: 2Outer Wall Wipe Distance: 0.2 mmTop Surface Skin Layers: 0Top/Bottom Thickness: 0.8 mm   Top Thickness: 0.8 mm      Top Layers: 8    Bottom Thickness: 0.8 mm      Bottom Layers: 8Top/Bottom Pattern: LinesBottom Pattern Initial Layer: LinesTop/Bottom Line Directions: [ ]Outer Wall Inset: 0 mmCompensate Wall Overlaps: Check    Compensate Outer Wall Overlaps: Check    Compensate Inner Wall Overlaps: CheckFill Gaps Between Walls: EverywhereFilter Out Tiny Gaps: CheckHorizontal Expansion: 0 mmInitial Layer Horizontal Expansion: 0 mmZ Seam Alignment: Sharpest CornerSeam Corner Preference: Hide SeamIgnore Small Z Gaps: CheckExtra Skin Wall Count: 1InfillInfill Density: 20%Infill Line Distance: 4.0 mmInfill Pattern: GridInfill Line Directions: [ ]Infill X Offset: 0 mmInfill Y Offset: 0 mmInfill Overlap Percentage: 10%    Infill Overlap: 0.04 mmSkin Overlap Percentage: 5%    Skin Overlap: 0.02 mmInfill Wipe Distance: 0.1 mmInfill Layer Thickness: 0.1 mmGradual Infill Steps: 1Gradual Infill Steps Height: 1.5 mmInfill Before Walls: CheckMinimum Infill Area: 0 mm2Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mm    Top Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mm    Bottom Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmSkin Expand Distance: 0.8    Top Skin Expand Distance: 0.8    Bottom Skin Expand Distance: 0.8Maximum Skin Angle for Expansion: 90˚    Minimum Skin Width for Expansion: 0.0MaterialInitial Layer Flow: 100%Enable Retraction: CheckRetraction Extra Prime Amount: 0 mm3Retraction Minimum Travel: 0.8 mmMaximum Retraction Count: 90Minimum Extrusion Distance Window: 6.5 mmNozzle Switch Retraction Distance: 16 mmNozzle Switch Retraction Speed: 20 mm/s    Nozzle Switch Retract Speed: 20 mm/s    Nozzle Switch Prime Speed: 20 mm/sSpeed Print Speed: 45 mm/s    Infill Speed: 50 mm/s    Wall Speed: 22.5 mm/s      Outer Wall Speed: 22.5 mm/s      Inner Wall Speed: 45 mm/s    Top/Bottom Speed: 15 mm/sTravel Speed: 60 mm/sInitial Layer Speed: 22.5 mm/s  Initial Layer Print Speed: 22.5 mm/s  Initial Layer Travel Speed: 30 mm/sSkirt/Brim Speed: 30 mm/sMaximum Z Speed: 0 mm/sNumber of Slower Layers: 2Travel Combing Mode: AllAvoid Printed Parts when Traveling: CheckTravel Avoid Distance: 0.625 mmLayer Start X: 0.0 mmLayer Start Y: 0.0 mmCooling Enable Print Cooling: CheckFan Speed: 100%    Regular Fan Speed: 100%    Maximum Fan Speed: 100%Regular/Maximum Fan Speed Threshold: 10 sInitial Fan Speed: 0%Regular Fan Speed at Height: 0.3 mm    Regular Fan Speed at Layer: 2Minimum Layer Time: 5 sMinimum Speed: 10 mm/sSupport Generate Support: CheckSupport Placement: EverywhereSupport Overhang Angle: 60°Support Pattern: Zig ZagConnect Support ZigZags: CheckSupport Density: 15 %    Support Line Distance: 1.3333 mmSupport Z Distance: 0.3 mm    Support Top Distance: 0.3 mm    Support Bottom Distance: 0.3 mmSupport X/Y Distance: 1 mmSupport Distance Priority: Z overrides X/YMinimum Support X/Y Distance: 0.25 mmSupport Stair Step Height: 0.3 mmSupport Stair Step Maximum Width: 5.0 mmSupport Join Distance: 2.0 mmSupport Horizontal Expansion: 0.2 mmSupport Infill Layer Thickness: 0.1 mmGradual Support Infill Steps: 0Use Towers: CheckTower Diameter: 3.0 mmMinimum Diameter: 3.0 mmTower Roof Angle: 65°Build Plate Adhesion Build Plate Adhesion Type: Brim (for all parts of locks use "Skirt")Skirt/Brim Minimum Length: 250 mmBrim Width: 8.0 mm    Brim Line Count: 18Brim Only on Outside: CheckMesh Fixes Union Overlapping Volumes: CheckMerged Meshes Overlap: 0.15 mmSpecial ModesPrint Sequence: All at OnceSurface Mode: NormalExperimentalSlicing Tolerance: MiddleMaximum Resolution: 0.01 mmFlow rate compensation max extrusion offset: 0 mmFlow rate compensation factor: 100%Disclaimer: This model will look outstanding if printed on SLA/SLS 3D printer.
