Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 type 256 - Kevan - 29th-Aug-22

Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 type 256

The Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 was made between 1938–1952, versions of which were entered in the Monte Carlo Rally and Mille Miglia between 1939 - 1952

Resin printed, chassis printed in CF-PETG

I have two chassis made, one IL the other SW.  The SW setup will need narrow tyres, 8mm.

I don't enjoy detailing at all but I do try to make it look good.

...this is on my 'favourite cars' list, a beauty.

That looks pretty good, sir.

I think the only other option for this is the Slot Classic aka Slot Cla$$ic

That looks excellent...One of the best 3d printed bodies I've seen. Resin printed seems the way to go if you can't get a traditional resin shell.

I was impressed also.  This came off the printer, cleaned in bio ethanol, supports removed, cured, left to sit for an hour or so to dry, primed, painted...no post processing was done.

Recently I've become a bit obsessed where the supports go these days, I let the slicer do it's job of placing supports then I delete all the ones on the outside surfaces and manually add loads more to the inside surfaces.  Yes it takes 3 times as long on the software but the results are better.

I've also started printing at 0.02mm layers instead of 0.04mm layers so print times have doubled, this one took 9 hours.
