7000in5th Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 The Hum3D website has hundreds of 3D programs for cars. You can buy this 2020 Corvette 3D print-ready for 300 Euros. https://hum3d.com/3d-models/chevrolet-corvette-c8-2020/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Aug-20-2019 Has anyone tried to print a Hum3D car? I realize it is a complex project but being the first to sell a new car, even if it is a hollow lump with closed windows would seem to have some selling potential. For 600 euros, you can get a detailed interior.
wrenchr Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Sounds like a lot of money. I'd hold out for someone to produce one in plastic or resin first. Edited August 20, 2019 by wrenchr
Jhedir6 Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 Cool but no thanks. I'll wait for a plastic kit. I'm sure Revell will do this if they can get the licencing from GM. IF they can, please, please, please, someone tackle them and get them to start doing their kits in 1/24 like everyone else. I'd also like to see them do the new GT500 as well, but would rather see Tamiya do it. They've got an in with Ford it seems, the GT and the GT4 Mustang in 1/10 (still thing they should of put that out in 1/24) so maybe they can get the GT500 into production. Regardless of who does the C8, and I'm sure someone will, 300 Euros is insane.

my66s55 Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 To answer your questions. Yes, it can be 3d printed. Yes, I have printed Hum 3d cars. I only pay the minimum for them , make them 3d printabe and print them out on one of my 3d resin printers.

People don’t think it’s a big difference between 1/25 but I disagree. You lose potential in detail and at 1/25 you get into a toylike appearance.

It’s not like comparing 1/43 to 1/8 .... It’s big enough in my opinion. I know others don’t share that opinion but 1/24 has a better scale appearance when it comes to the final assembly and finish of a model. 1/25 also makes an odd display next to the 1/24 standard of most models these days

Some subjects will be more noticeable than others, but yes, there is difference between the two scales, and I am with David, 1/24th for all new tooling moving forward from Revell.

You get a CAD file exactly as you see it in the op's post. There is no color unless the 3d medium has it. Outside of a solid peace, it's not 3d printable.

Lownslow Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 I thought about rendering it but ill wait till the rocket bunny version

7000in5th Posted September 7, 2022 Author Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) Four model years old and nothing yet? Are the big guys waiting for the Z06? Nothing by anyone in 3D? Edited September 7, 2022 by 7000in5th correct spelling 1
