Very cool looking giant topographical print!
Testing out a new Camouflage Green PLA filament from Vortex 3Dp that changes back and forth between several gradients throughout the spool. Looks really cool on topographical prints like this one of Mt McKinley. Slightly scaled up at 1.15.

Printed on an RBB3 from ReliaBuild 3D using a large portion of the 12" x 16" bed. This test accomplished several things.
One to test a really long print. This one took 76:55 hours.
Another was to test the jam free qualities of the filament. No issues there.
And finally to test a very large area flat print to confirm bed flatness, bed adhesion, and resistance to warping. Again no issues.
The 1/8" mill cut (very flat) aluminum bed was washed with Windex and then had 3M blue painters tape applied. Bed temp was set to 60C for the first 4 layers and at 0.5mm of height it was dropped to 45C. Part cooling fan kicked on low at layer two and ramped to full speed at layer 4. First layer height was 0.2mm and the rest were 0.1mm. After the print cooled to below 40C it was popped off the bed using a chisel as a pry with the bevel side down. Immediately ready to start a new print.
Very satisfied with the performance results here.
