The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

 Post subject: 3D printed Aliens U.S.S. Sulaco

Just for the helluvit, I decided to give a shot at printing the U.S.S. Sulaco by Canison on thingiverse (thingiverse dot com/thing:3779410)
It ended up right at 34" long, so is the single, physically largest I have printed.

The second image is a size comparison I did just for the sake of it. I know there are plenty "artworks" out there that do the same thing, but sometimes having a physical object to compare to makes it all really hit home.

The tiny APC (like 5mm long) was so low detail, I tossed it right after taking the pic. I have a high detail resin printer, I suppose I could try remaking it. The drop ship is suspended from the arm/nacelle thingy by thin monofilament line, and thus, is included. :D
