6 mm tall on a 160 mm print
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Diamond-patterned skin
Part of the facade is wrapped in a diamond lattice. Full detail keeps the pattern on a larger print; Print friendly simplifies it at small sizes. Layers of 0.12 mm help.
- Boxes on the roof
Several boxy volumes sit on the roof. A larger print size keeps their edges sharp against the flat roofline.
- One piece with the ground
The Museum of the Moving Image is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Museum of the Moving Image takes the building color.
- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About the Museum of the Moving Image
The Museum of the Moving Image, shortened to MoMI, is a museum of time-based media in the Astoria neighborhood of Queens. Its home is an old building from the historic Astoria Studios, the site now known as Kaufman Astoria Studios. The museum covers film, television and digital media, looking at their art, history, technique and technology, and it collects and preserves related artifacts and presents them through multimedia exhibitions and educational programming.
In 1970 a foundation named for Astoria's motion picture and television center took over the old studios to save the landmarked building. Seven years of work followed. On September 10, 1988, it opened under the name American Museum of the Moving Image, in what had been Paramount Pictures' East Coast home. It was the first museum in the country dedicated solely to film, television and video, covering their art, history and technology. A permanent exhibition, "Behind the Screen", opened in 1996.
Work on an expansion began in March 2008, and the museum reopened in January 2011. Architect Thomas Leeser designed the expansion, which made the museum twice as large and added a new theater and an educational space. Its video game and gaming hardware holdings are among the most significant collections, and in 2017 it opened a permanent exhibit on Jim Henson.
