Description

Large 3d miniature of Chicago, Illinois!

Model created in Blender using the Blosm addon.

Check out my collection of other Large miniature cities: https://makerworld.com/en/u/1935755220/collections/468505

Smaller version of Chicago: https://makerworld.com/en/models/105044#profileId-112101

This model was designed to be printed with a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.16mm layer heights.

Try using a 0.2mm nozzle (0.08mm layer heights) for even finer detail!

Note: If roads are disappearing after slicing, try or lowering the extrusion/line width of external perimeters (outer walls) closer to 0.4mm OR use Arachne walls.

Framing Details

This model measures almost exactly 7.5x9.5in (242.31mm X 191.08mm) and should fit most 8x10 frames (assuming frame lip/overlap is around a half-inch). Feel free to change the scale/size of the model(s) to meet your needs.

I also included a large printable frame (w/ 1mm water plate) designed to fit my large miniature cities!

Note: This is a “large” miniature and will not fit the smaller ~5x7inch printable frame included with the other miniature cities!

Personally I use these cheap wooden frames from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XVP48KQ

And blue printer paper: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00006IDQT

A frame is not required! This model looks great by itself and can be displayed almost anywhere.

Great model. I had issues printing this using Bambu Handy (incompatible printer error), but was able to use Bambu Studio to get it set up with my P1S with AMS. It would be nice to have the antennas on certain iconic buildings (like the John Hancock), but it still looks amazing. Will need to be updated when 400 Lake Shore gets completed.
