I guess this is it. The Ryanair 737-800 in 90s livery is in one piece. The model is about one meter long so it's roughly 1:40 scale. A lot of mistakes were made again, but less than with the previous model. And I got to see how useful the laser water-transfer decal paper is! Also for the fuselage LW-PLA would've made it a lot nicer to handle, the whole thing weighs couple kilos and is made from one expired PLA spool and several spool ends.

This model is the second most common plane I've travelled on (the A320 series being the first). Even when people crap on Ryanair, in my 20s it enabled me to see the Europe with shoestring budget. They always delivered as long as you play by their rules.

I don't know what's next, I do have a model for Babylon 5 that would look awesome when printed like 2 meters long... #scalemodel #3dprinting
