3D model description

The Expanse is pretty much my favourite science fiction show on TV today.
There’s no Star trek style shields or phasers, no Star Wars naval battles and aircraft style spaceflight mechanics, but instead there is realistic space flight and combat. There’s no artificial gravity, ships have to flip and burn to decelerate, combat is generally long distance, and in general the show uses real world physics for its spaceflight.

This is my 3D printable model of the Rocinante. It’s based on many different references and resources, and I
think it’s mostly right. She certainly looks pretty close anyway.
Built, she comes in at about 800mm, which makes the model about 1:57.5 scale. Fully assembled, she’ll weigh about 2.1kg, and take about 175 hours total to print all parts.
The longest individual print time is 19 hours for the rear section but the majority of the prints only take a few hours.
It can be printed on an FDM printer that has a 200x200x200mm print volume.
There are however a number of small detailed parts that really require a resin/DLP style printer, especially the PDC’s. You can build the ship without them though as parts are included for closed PDC bay doors for the sleeker look.
There is loads of space inside it, and it would be possible to add some servo’s to move the PDC’s, and to light the engine.

The instructions are available here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bs7Qss4hoHvavxGMdcxk_VKJKZKJP4fe/view?usp=drive_link

UPDATE: There is a small number of updated parts that I did after season 4 aired, and I got a good closup view of a few parts. As a result in the files are several updates.
Details of the ammendments can be downloaded here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d2H3s6FJGcOs289As4YU6h5FVfrJRCuC/view?usp=sharing

I really hope you enjoy building it, and look forward to seeing it.

Best place is via my Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/360348098234645/

Thanks!
