1:100 Psyche Spacecraft
Description
Remix of a remix! The Falcon Heavy 8 / Psyche Mission was the first ever launch I saw in person and I wanted to print my own model. Almost a complete remodel using ddThingz remix https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5570066 as a base. Scaled to 1:100, using general dimensions of the spacecraft and pictures. It is in the Ready For Launch condition. After attempting to print and paint in one go, I stripped the model apart into 20 pieces. Was able to print everything on my Ender 3 Pro, slowly... Needs to be glued together, most parts have attached pins and corresponding holes with the exception of the sensor tube gold cap (notch to the left) and solar cells. The solar cells are printed in black, painted with a silver acrylic paint marker, and the top layer wiped off. I painstakingly modeled the solar cells because OCD. The spacecraft fits on my 1:100 Falcon Payload Adapter (link soon) and onto my OCDed remix (link soon) of AstroNot's Falcon Heavy https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4357356
