Every time I thought I was done I&#8217;d find a picture online that told me I wasn&#8217;t. This incarnation, while nowhere near perfect, I feel I can live with. I find designs in armor scales need to be more precise than those of ships. Small errors and intentional design simplifications are hardly noticeable in 1\/450 scale but seem glaringly obvious in 1\/35.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most of the parts are now printed. As with my latest ship models I used both my Ender 3 Pro and LD-002r printers on this project. With winter here to stay, I won&#8217;t be using the LD-002r again till it warms up. Much to my surprise, I was able to keep on printing with it out in the tool  shed, while outside temps were only in the upper 30&#8217;s. So if you have a garage (and a sensitive spouse) you&#8217;ll probably still be able to print year round &#8211; even if you live up north.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much of the assembly is also complete, so more posts are sure to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Update: 1\/1\/2021<\/strong><br>My m26 Pershing is now complete, visit the new <a href=\"https:\/\/scalemodelguy.com\/index.php\/us-m26-pershing-ww2-heavy-tank-model-3d-printed-in-1-35-scale\/\">project page<\/a> for more details and the finished model pictures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Posted: 12\/19\/2020I&#8217;ve been working on my M26 Perching design sporadically since I finished the King Tiger.
