Description

This is a 3D printed model of a generic Corvette Class Light Frigate of the MCRN from the tv show the Expanse. This particular ship is named the Phobos.

The ship has several features:

- Retractable PDCs

- Openable Torpedo tubes with torpedos

- Retractable Airlock cover

- Extendable Docking Bridge

- Openable Drone bay with a Drone

The model is a kit and requires no glue. The ship is in scale with my Morrigan Class Patrol Destroyer and my Rocinante model.
For the assembly I highly recommend to watch the dedicated video about the project.

Other Issues:Had a few problems getting parts to fit, specifically the black inserts for the back part fitted poorly and had to be scaled down. Apart from that minor annoyance it printed great and went together quickly.
