I was inspired by Karl's 15mm 40K project TMP link so I decided to start one of my own. My printer is a DaVinci Pro 1.0. The Space Marines below were printed by me in ABS filament. The Dreadnought and Predator I bought from Tony TMP link
from whom I bought my first 3D printed models ever. All the files I used are available on Thingiverse and I used Tinkercad to scale them down. I will post more on my blog wargamer1972.blogspot.com as the project evolves. My son wants to do 15mm withe me too as well as my solo-wargaming buddy. 15mm Space Marines
15mm Predator and Dreadnought.

Resized these guys from Epic 40K to 15mm. I am happy with how they printed out.

Are you able to take closer pics with better light to see the detail? |

Fascinating thread Brigadier. Please keep updating as your project progresses! |

Each vehicle took about an hour and half to print. The marines about 30 minutes for 4. I've been so fascinated by my printer I seem to bounce from project to project as I find new and intriguing things to print. |

My brother purchased a decent printer a few months ago (can't remember the make, but it has a 14" plate and is capable of printing anything up to 14" of height as well. Cost well over $1,000 USD). Maybe I can buy some rolls of plastic and I can "borrow" his printer :). These look great. We also found with test figures and research that there is a certain black primer (I think its automotive) that is recommended to mitigate a lot of any layering textures. What do you use? |

Hi brigadier- really nice there. A glimpse of the future! What is the finest resolution you can get with your DaVinci? Can it knock out 1mm walls? |

.2 is the best I can configure. |
