In the Perry Rhodan series, the classic spaceship used by humans in this series is a globe with a torus around its equator to house the engines.
Those "Kugelraumer" were produced from "small" 60 meter ones - which also were used as tenders on bigger spaceships - up to the classic ultra-battleship with a diameter of 2500 meters.
The ship:
This a a typical Kaulquappe, a small 60 meter ship which is often used as a tender on larger fleet units. With its crew of minimum of 15 member, the ship is able to operate with a FTL drive and has a maximum acceleration of 600km/s^2.
After building the Kaulquappe LC-11 with my FDM printer in 1/500 scale I finally got a resin printer. As this one can print much smaller structures, I asked myself how small could the Kaulquappe be printed.
So after several attmepts, the smallst on had a diameter of just 1 cm, this is now a model in 1/300 scale. So diameter is just 2 cm. Because of its size, its only painted in one color.
The little "showcase" is a box for Lego mini figures.
