Retro UFO

This retro UFO model was designed as a companion to the retro rocket ship, available here. (https://than.gs/m/1139658) This miniature, detailed design of an alien UFO is perfect as a desk display, paperweight, or for tabletop games. The model prints in multiple pieces with minimal supports and can be assembled using glue.
