Wireframe Cobra Mk.III from Elite
Description
The Famous Falcon Delacey Cobra Mk. Iii From The 1984 Release Of Elite! This Wireframe Display Model Has A 7" Wingspan (Not Really Wings, But You Know What I Mean). The Model Is Taken From An Archive.Org Snapshot Of The Witchspace Site - Someone Had Converted Original Bbc Files Into Vrml, And I Wrote Come Code To Convert That To Openscad. The 'Wires' Are 3Mm In Diameter. Be Warned - There Will Likely Be A Lot Of Model Cleanup, And The Model Itself Is Delicate - Use A New Blade On Your Xacto, And Work Slowly. The Snapshot Of The Site Is Here: Http://Web.Archive.Org/Web/20090517122753/Http://Mackayj.Doosh.Net/Eliteships.Html The Ship Prints As One Piece, And I Included Some Files To Make A Nice Acrylic Display Stand (It Will Work With Any Material At 3Mm Width, And There Is One L-Shaped Piece To 3D Print). The Ship Is Attached To The Stand Using M2 Screws And Nuts. Have A Look At The Photos For How The Stand Assembles. The Felt Piece Is Intended To Glue To The Bottom Of The Stand (Felt, By The Way, Cuts On A Laser At Low Power Quite Nicely, Use Hot Glue To Attach It To The Stand). If You Want To Have The Etched Logo On The Base, Here'S How I Did That - First I Sprayed The *Back* Side The Of Acrylic Black, Then Etched The Text/Images And Cut The Base, And Then I Sprayed Red Over The Etching. Because You View It From The Other Side, It Has A Nice, Smooth Engraved Look. Experiment With Different Contrasting Colors.
