I'm interested in getting quotes from modelers who can build me STL models of some rarer Star Wars ships. Willing to pay for the work just need to know price ranges.
Ships I'm interested in getting modeled:
Hapan Battle Dragon

Hapan Nova Battle Cruiser

Possibly others but will start with these.
Thanks

the pictures you posted are good but you need more info to work out what sort of detail you'll be putting into it, some printers can handle finer detail and some can't
just out of interest where is the first one from? I recognise it from somewhere
I may be out of the loop here but building for 3D printng can be a bit of a mare if its too fine in scale. I heard that the model also has to be a continious "air-tight" mesh ( no intersecting elements) otherwise you just end up with a mess at the other end.
Happy to be corrected if anyone else reading this has had experience with 3D printing?.
I'd like moderately detailed model for each. Good resolution.
I just got a 3d printer so that's what the STL files would be for.
@IRML - both ships are from the Star Wars extended universe. I just really love the way they look.
@indianna - Not sure if those views are available and I don't require the models to be exactly accurate. I believe you are correct about the STL files for 3d printing.
You might want to print a simple thin cylinder from the same material first. see what sort of strength it will have before you spend a load of money employing someone to build a model for you too delecate to touch.
