About the Project

I decided that in this time of being stuck at home, it is time to use my 3D printers to create a more suitable target for Wings of Glory WW2. A ship would make a lovely target! Well, Wings of Glory WW2 minis are 1/200 scale... So an Aircraft carrier is probably too large to be practical to print... And I want a really good, high quality, print... So I really want to use the resin printer. I own an Elegoo Mars. So, I need a ship that will fit the width of my printer... After some research, I determined that a typical Destroyer in 1/200th scale would be about 5cm wide... That should work!

Step 1 – Find a suitable STL file.

I don’t have the skills to create my own STL files from scratch, so I went in search of something I could use.

A quick jaunt around Thingiverse.com produced an STL file created by a creator called HatsuneR.

At 1/200th scale it will be close to a whopping 50cm long model!
