3D model description

A simple 1/48 model kit of the legendary Japanese WW2 fighter aircraft Mtisubishi A6m Zero.

The model is designed mainly for vase mode printing with Cura 4.10 (Cura 5.X does not work for it). More details about the print mode for each part is shown in one of the pictures. You can also find the assembly procedure that I would advice there.

Each parts is printed in the corresponding color. The canopy is hand-painted with vallejo model color (acrylic paint).

3D printing settings

Printability tested with Cura 4.10, 4.12 and PrusaSlicer 2.5.
The model ist not suitable for vase mode of Cura 5.X!

Filaments with different colors were used for the individual parts to obtain a semi-scale look.

The printing modes (vase/normal) for each part is shown in on of the pictures.

The layer thickness depends on the details required. For most parts I used adaptive layers in Cura 4.10 between 0.1mm and 0.2mm.
