Do you think it’s possible to 3d print a 2006 lotus Elise body shape to 1-10 scale then paint it and put it on a rc
I don’t see why not, as long as you have the 3d model and a big enough print bed.
@Tyler_Harney alright 
Probably modifying the 3d model to be a shell will be the hardest part.
Are you asking us after already doing it? Or are you really wondering out loud?
Very Short Answer: Yes, for sure. Once CAD’d and sliced the only thing left to do is print it.
Realistic Answer: Yes, for sure. Either you’ll locate plans or files for the parts you need and painstakingly recreate them in your design program of choice. Then slice & print.
If you can dream it, then you can build it.
@Woody_Williams I have nothing related to 3d printing at the moment but may start later in life
Realistic answer: A (thin and light) body is extremely hard to print - not only due to the geometry with lots of extreme overhangs, but also because thin shells will end up much thicker than thermoformed Lexan - and they’ll still break more easily. So, yes, it’s possible if done right, but it’s tricky and will not compete with off-the-shelf bodies. If you can buy one ready-made, definitely go with that, but if you can’t, well, it would probably be easier (and give better results) to print a mold for vacuum forming a body yourself.
@Nils_Grotheer not sure about that, as you’re only transferring a small amount of thermal energy to the mold. ABS might be fairly hard to print for such a large part.
Anyways, i’d be more worried about the body sticking to the mold, so some sort of release agent is a must.
It looks like there is a 1:10 Lexan body for a Lotus Elise on the German eBay. I don’t know if it’s the exact body style and year you’re looking for.
@Jeff_DeMaagd cool cool
Check out http://replicadb4.com/default.aspx This guy is doing this more or less but for a full Sized car. He has some good tip on how to modify the 3d model to just be a shell and tips on breaking it down to fit on your print bed.
