Xebec Sailing Ship Gaming Miniature Compatible with DnD Spelljammer

A model of a Xebec sailing ship. This miniature is well suited for tabletop games such as Dungeons and Dragons.

It comes with a version on a flying stand as well as a version with its bottom cut off to make it look like it's floating in water. There are pre-supported versions of all the parts for more convenient resin printing. There are also my FDM friendly versions of some of the parts that would not otherwise be suited for FDM printing.

This is a 1:600 scale model, which is the same scale as the Spelljammer ship models made by Wizkids. The hull is about 4.5 inches (120mm) long and the stand has a base that is 2 inches (50mm) in diameter.

There is also a version of this design that includes more options for the sails as well as a flying ship hull. That is available at Cults3d Here: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/xebec-sailing-airship-gaming-miniature-flying-ship-compatible-with-dnd-spelljammer

Resin (SLA) Printing:

Use the pre-supported files with settings that work well for your resin and printer.

Filament (FDM) Printing:

I recommend printing all parts with a nozzle diameter of 0.4mm.

For printing the hull, make sure you use the FDM version. It should default to the recommended orientation with the front of the ship angled down about 30 degrees.

Set the support overhang angle such that supports generate along the bottom of the ship but there’s little to no support up the sides. I found 60 degrees works well for this. It may also generate supports under the railing in the back of the ship. These supports are not necessary and you can use a support blocker to suppress the generation of any supports on the deck of the ship.

For the masts, use the version that isn’t pre-supported. I recommend printing with the masts oriented horizontally so they aren't too fragile. Make sure the mast is also oriented such that an edge of the sail is pointed down. The face of the sail pointing down will result in a much uglier print.
