    Just realized you said you used a flashforge finder, i have that printer too it's actually really decent.



    And, of course it has googly eyes for added amusement

    I wonder how it would come out in 1:18 or even make a 1:10 RC, it would probably make good use of my CR10s

    You could print a 1/10 scale version, just scale up the print file. You'd have to cut it into pretty small chunks to print on my tiny printer.

    Screw it... we should make a Pigeon power wheels as I won't be satisfied unless I can drive it and look like an idiot while doing it. Honestly it could probably be done, but it would take about 12 to 15 prints of FULL build volume off my CR10 to make it happen... each one of those prints being almost a full roll of filament.

    I think there should be a model set for ALL vehicles in the base game and you should tease new vehicles with 3D prints

    I see business potential here. If BeamNG starts selling merch, it would be cool to have Matchbox-style models of the different Beam cars.

    Eyyyy! It's Percy! (That's just what I call all seafoam-green Pigeons nowadays.)

    Anyway, I think you did a fabulous job with your 3D-printed Pigeon. Sure, it's got a few issues (the frame looks a little bent for starters), but overall, it's definitely recognizable as everyone's favorite fiberglass diesel tricycle.

    At that point it would probably be easiest to just make a sheet metal or fiberglass shell and stick it on a go-kart.
