This is not my usual GHQ model. A friend had bought a resin printer and wanted to give it a try, so i uploaded a file & on he went. We messed up the scale, much bigger than 1/2400 (and so, no fancy Flight Deck Decals, had to go free hand), and while it is not bad for a 1st try, the hull is distinctly warped. I gave it a paint job nonetheless, guess it will be a gift for a friend.

Foxbat, did you print it flat on the build plate? Have him rotate the model or elevate it off the build plate. That helps with the warped hull.

Great use of sand.

Those edges will give me nightmares.
