They also scratched it getting it out of the packaging.

There will now be 4, 7, and 12 models that are printed in color instead of hand painted, and will be $20, $99, and $299.
Ill probably be picking up at least one 7 model of another ship at some point.
Here is an image of the new sizes as well as one of the hand painted 12 models on the left so you can see the differences.

I decided to order a 4" ship today of the USS Chamberlain:
Since there were some issues with the shipping costs, they gave people a partial refund and a 30% off coupon code, so I decided to order a 7" as well of the USS Columbia:
I'm curious as to whether I'll get these, or my original hand painted model first.
Can't wait to get all three and to see how they compare.

Im curious about your opinions on the in game model.
Here is my version of the standard Defiant configuration:

That's with my color choice and hull material choice. I played with every paint pattern the game has, but none of them looked right so I stuck with the standard Defiant pattern.
Here is the stock color and hull material the game gives you:

Depending on how my standard finished 4" and 7" ships turn out, I'm very tempted to order one of these.

Thanks for posting those man. Initially when I first saw it (back when they brought that guy on board who updated some/all of the models), I thought it was a great replica of the studio miniature. However, looking it over, it's a weird hybrid of both that version, and the CG/old AMT kit version. I'd almost be tempted to say that whilst the outer profile is right, he's used one of those old kits as his point of reference for the details.
Fine version of her, though. Light years ahead of what they originally had.

Here is the USS Andromeda, primed and ready for paint:

The detail is just amazing, can't wait to see the final product.

That one looks like it's made of foam, and some of the details look blurry (compared to the others you've shown).

Just got notice that my 4" ship is on the way, and that I'll be one of the first to get one of their new standard finishes.
Edit:
Someone on Reddit got a 4" model today, and posted a real shitty picture that seems to be focused on the pen they used for scale instead of the ship itself:

Album they posted with a couple more pictures:
Looks like it may be a lower resolution print, which for the size is understandable. Or they're just blurry pictures, hard to tell.

I received my first 3D printed ship today, a kit bash of the Intrepid Class made up of the Bellerophon saucer and hull, Intrepid pylons, and Pathfinder Nacelles.
Here are the game captures I took: https://imgur.com/a/kB3IzMA
Here are my "recreations" using the 4" model I received: https://imgur.com/a/PKLO2aq
Here are some close up shots of the top and bottom: https://imgur.com/a/Igkk8U0
The detail for something that is just straight printed like this, at this size, is impressive. You can actually see individual windows on the saucer.
It is definitely not perfect, especially the bottom of the secondary hull where the detailing is non-existent when compared with the game captures.
My nacelles are also not perfectly straight, and if you look at the pictures you may see that there is some kind of liquid/moisture on the pylons. I'm not sure what it is, and will update when I get a response from Gameprint.
I also made an unboxing video:
I also received notice that my 12" collectible has shipped today, really cant wait to see her.

So something unexpected happened to this little guy over the last day.
While she was...borrowing.. Voyagers stand, it seems her warp nacelles have straitened quite a bit compared to when I got her:
Before:
After:
It seems the resin is fairly soft, and manipulable, and the stand forcing them to align straitened them. Very pleased with that.
I also got a reply from Gameprint about the issues with the coloring on the bottom, and they've offered to make adjustments to the texture colors and reprint it for free. Looking forward to seeing how the reprint turns out.

Someone from Gameprint shared a ton of pictures on Reddit of the standard finish ships.
Here is a 12 inch:

Some 4 inch:

He said he’d post more, but since it’s the 4th he probably isn’t working today.
This size seems to be the sweet spot for detail and price.

She's finally here, and is absolutely stunning.
