AT-AT Walker 3D Printing Model | Assembly + Action

ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

The ferocious All Terrain Armored Transport (AT-AT) is a quadrupedal combat Walker, the Imperial Army’s most famous and menacing ground weapon and an incontestable star of George Lucas’ franchise. AT-ATs achieved their legendary status after the iconic battle on the ice plains of Hoth that resulted in a successful attack on Echo Base that protected the Rebel headquarters. Despite Walker’s many flaws and vulnerabilities, it has proved to be an excellent psychological weapon enough to make the enemy yield. With its terrifying main guns, massive size, tremendous design, and surprising pace, the AT-AT Walker can terrify the enemies with its mere appearance. The author of the imposing AT-AT model for 3D printing definitely wanted his Walker selection to boast one of the most recognizable symbols of the Empire’s military strength. Massive and powerful, AT-AT model is heavily armed, carrying the twin chin-mounted Class II heavy laser cannons, and a pair of medium blaster cannons on its cheeks. Shielded with heavy armour cladding, the Walker 3D printing model distinguishes by its spectacular level of detail of both the exterior and interior elements. The 3D artist made sure to carefully outfit the two-pilot cockpit and the two-storeyed cabin that is known to carry up to 40 troopers to their deployment site. Various hatches and lids all over the body of this destructive weapon conceal the highly-detailed mechanical elements that would allow you to present the 3D printed AT-AT in a variety of scenarios or conditions. While the slow and vulnerable AT-AT might fail reality test, it is simply impossible to deny the fact that this Walker is a truly legendary beast of the Star Wars franchise. Get yourself your very own behemoth of a war machine by 3D printing the astonishing AT-AT Walker model!

ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING (FFF/FDM 2.0, DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0)

AT-AT Walker for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its updating and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took Gambody team 75 hours in total. Due to the fact that this model was first released on Gambody back in 2015, for all the Star Wars fans to print the best Walker possible, the model was upgraded from the ground up, cut into assembly parts anew, equipped with the latest developed articulated connecting elements and adapted for different types of 3D printers taking into account the present-day technology advancements. What is more, when preparing the model's update its level of detail and accuracy were significantly enhanced. Thus, for you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible and to minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support the Walker model was divided into many assembly parts, e.g. its blaster cannons, footpads, various hatches, viewport, heavy laser cannons, toe flaps, etc. are provided as separate STL files. The model’s head and body in both FFF/FDM 2.0 and DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 versions are made hollow and equipped with the highly detailed interior of the cockpit and the cabin. For the quadrupedal Walker to be displayed in a variety of dioramas and scenarios, all of its joints were made articulated with the help of special mechanisms and the weapons mounted on the model’s body were made movable as well. All assembly parts are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. When downloading any model's file you will also receive "Assembly Manual" for FFF/FDM 2.0 and DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 versions in PDF format.

The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.

The model's scale was calculated from the actual length of the AT-AT that is 26000 mm. The 3D printing model's chosen scale is 1/68 for the FFF/FDM version and 1/136 for the DLP/SLA/SLS version.
