About this 3D model

This 3D printable model represents the 26 cm RK L/22 Krupp naval gun, the primary armament used on the Sachsen-class ironclads of the Imperial German Navy. Designed to capture the distinctive proportions and mechanical character of these early breech-loading heavy guns, the model is optimized for clean printing while preserving a high level of visual detail. Although scaled at 1:96, the geometry is refined enough to hold up well at larger scales, making it a versatile addition to a wide range of naval projects. The model is provided as 7 separate STL parts, allowing for straightforward printing, painting, and assembly. This breakdown also enables builders to achieve sharper results on smaller printers and apply more realistic finishes to individual components. Suitable both as a standalone display piece or as an upgrade for existing ironclad models, this gun adds a strong historical focal point to any late 19th-century naval build.
