The model is provided in 1/1000 scale and is Resin print only. It consists of separate parts, the hull, gun-turrets (2 types) and bridge which you need to glue on the hull.
1/1800 - resize to 55,56%
1/1200 - resize to 83,5%
There are 4 named bases provided, one per Cruiser. And each base comes in 2 versions. Text recessed and the raised. I used the recessed version for FDM printed bases. Finally a base without text is also included. Do not forget to also re-scale the bases if you print in 1/1200 or 1/1800 scale.
Also included a 1/1800 scale pre-supported model which I used for the test-prints on my Anycubic Mono SE (0.05mm layer) using standard resin. Use at your own risk, might be best you create your own supported files, which prints best on you own printer. Some parts are rather delicate, mainly the gun barrels, and you will need to remove support carefully.
The base was printed on an Ender 5 pro (0.16 mm layer) standard PLA.
One survived WW2.
