Stylized Steam Tugboat Harbor
A stylized steam tugboat miniature designed for harbor and waterfront dioramas. This print-optimized model captures classic tugboat proportions with a simplified, low-poly aesthetic that prints clean at tabletop scales. Ideal for HO/OO/N layouts and general diorama displays — use as a standalone display piece or to populate piers, docks and harbor scenes. Print notes: optimized for minimal supports; suitable for resin and FDM printing. Recommended layer height 0.05–0.2 mm depending on material and detail preference. Small details (railings, lifebuoys) may benefit from slower print speeds or resin printing. Model is provided scaled for immediate printing; consider scaling up for larger displays. No complex assembly required
Base scale 1:87 (HO). The STL is dimensioned at 1:87 — scale it up or down in your slicer to print at any scale you need.
