From CAD To Cockpit - ErikM60

Bringing forgotten aircraft to life. ✈️
I am passionate about the full creative cycle—transforming digital concepts into highly detailed physical scale models. My philosophy? Don’t wait for manufacturers to release your favorite aircraft: build them yourself.
My "Digital-to-Physical" Workflow: 💻 Design: Precision modeling using FreeCAD (specializing in rare & WWII aircraft). ⚙️ Slicing: Advanced optimization with Lychee Slicer. 🖨️ Printing: High-resolution production on my Elegoo Mars 4 Ultra. 🎨 Finishing: Decal using InkScape, Masking and Laser Cutting using LaserGRBL and Ortur R1, Assembly, scratch-building, and historical painting for total realism.

What you’ll find on this channel:
    Design and creation of rare models ignored by major kit manufacturers.
    Immersive dioramas inspired by historical archive photos.
    Upgrading low-end plastic kits with custom 3D printed parts (Scratch-building).
