Tau Fleet Carrier

thingiverse

Suitable in size and armament for a stand-in for a Tau Custodian-class fleet carrier, this model is designed for use in the tabletop wargame Battlefleet Gothic. The highlighted circle on the underside image marks where there's a void built into the lower hull component for a mounting peg, measuring 3 mm in diameter. The bare wings can accommodate three medium railgun turrets and one small ion turret each. After printing, I estimate the true size of this model to be approximately 0.75 times its digital representation, although I don't have a physical copy to verify against. I am not affiliated with Games Workshop in any capacity. Please refrain from reuploading this design for commercial use on platforms like Shapeways; instead, feel free to upload it for personal printing purposes. 2019-03-24: I revised the ruts to make them slightly wider, enhancing paint adhesion. 2019-04-22: As requested, I integrated the upper hull section as a single piece. This model now requires only the bridge and lower hull to be printed separately, in version 20 of the Custodian design.
