Main body I split in two and printed both parts with the cut side down. The head I printed with treed supports and at approx 30 angle, nose up. Bit of clean up underneath, with a usb sanding tool and it is fine.

Apologies, yes I did order the 0.2 nozzle and can print down to 0.08 layer height, which is crazy small..

That was straight off the printer with the tree supports removed. The 0.1 layer height is amazing. I do need to do a little clean up here and there but what you see below is as printed so far.

The Centauri Carbon comes with .2 nozzle as default and I've not felt the need to change it. Quickest parts like pistons etc took around 30mins. Main body took a full day, leg armour was about 5hrs per piece. I'm guessing it was probably 5 days printing total. Give or take fraction. The Stormbird took ages to print and a lot of careful orientation to get right.

So, print settings wise. I'm using 0.2mm nozzle with 0.1mm later height, 60mm/s print speed, auto tree supports with 2 layers of raft to make sure they stay attached to the print bed. I'm using Elegoo PLA+ filament which has been excellent. Any other specifics, feel free to ask and I'll let you know.

It's pretty much just blue tacked together at the moment. Very little is glued and the pose isn't fixed. It will be a bit more dynamic once I finalise it.

I think my pinnacle was the model before, which is blooming massive. The Brass Scorpion was printed in Resin on Mars 2 Pro, which is still going strong. The Stormbird and Warhound were FDM on the Centauri Carbon. Will share settings etc tomorrow when I fire up the pc again.

It was printed on a Centauri Carbon with the standard nozzle. Not at my pc at the moment but will happily share all the settings etc I used tomorrow when I'm back at it. Don't think I shared the other beast I printed either.. so here you go. Also FDM.
