Summary

McCree's chest and back armor split into 10 pieces for printing on smaller sized printers. This is intended to be glued together and finished appropriately.

I am still finishing and painting the final pieces and will update this model once it is complete.

Since I was going to epoxy teh entire thing to smooth it out I was not concerned about printing in such a way to reduce print line visibility.</p><p>For size comparison, I am 6ft tall and weight 195.</p></div>

Post-Printing

Epoxy / Fiberglass

            <div><p>While not required I chose to finish and adhere my parts with fiberglas cloth and resin, this allowed me to get a smooth finish that i could easily sand, and made the entire piece MUCH stronger.</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/56/c2/ef/1a/e2/IMG_8477.JPG"></p>            <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Assembled and fiberglassed, prefinished back plate</strong></p>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/e1/fb/65/30/5b/IMG_4704.JPG"></p>            <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Assembled and fiberglassed, prefinished front plate</strong></p>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/db/37/26/93/cc/IMG_0315.JPG"></p>            <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Assembled and fiberglassed, front lower 'abs' plate</strong></p>
