RX-78-2 Gundam fixed-pose figure bust

This was my first test-print after setting up my 3D printer (Elegoo Mars Pro).

The model was sourced from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4158320 and arranged in Chitubox to add supports and slice it. One issue which was not apparent when I downloaded the STL file is that it isn't set up for any particular scale; on import it defaults to a tiny model only a few millimetres in height.

The final design, once painted and detailed to a high standard, is capable of looking like this (which is the work of the author, not me!):

• Source: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4158320
• License: Creative Commons - non-commercial use
• Scaling: Manually added - 1750% upscale
• Supports: Added by Chitubox

This appeared to be the neck connector - fortunately that one part can be printed again.

I did a 2 minute wash in IPA, following by a drain/dry and then a 2 minute cure cycle.

After that process, the parts looked like this:

No clean-up, just snipped from the supports:

Some basic cleanup of the head, fin and face plate:
