    I'm going to be picking up filament for this soon and could use a rough guess on interest level so I know how much to order.
    I know we don't have a cost-estimate yet for you, but if you're thinking about ordering a Deutschland kit, could you PM me or post? Would be very helpful, thanks!

    also, as a little bit of a tease... the superstructure design as of a few days ago perched atop a partial view of the hull skeleton..

    The full Deutschland kit will contain all the superstructure elements you see here with a few more not yet pictured - including the casemate models for the hull, the barbettes and turret covers.

    What about those of us who have a 3d printer? Will we be able to print our own as to go with the kit?

    We're not currently planning on releasing the full set of part files immediately.

    I do plan to release part files for more damage prone segments early on.
    Beyond that, I honestly don't know. There is no plan to release the full set as of right now.
