Very nice work.
On the subject of 3D prints, I've just taken delivery of a new 3D kit of a somewhat larger subject. I don't know how well know it is outside of the UK but, in the late 70s we had a British answer to Star Trek in the form of Blakes 7. Our hero's flew a ship called the Liberator and, despite me being a huge Trek fan I still think, to this day, that it is the best sci-fi starship design of all time.
At 3 feet long, the kit is the same size as the original filming miniature.
One of the 3 'nacelles' temporarily fitted:
and in comparison to the 1/200 Iowa that is now back on my work bench:
