Problems with a 3D printer, what is the best way to print this model?

Hello! I'm new to 3D printing so please help. I recently bought an Aurora 3D printer ( goo.gl/Bbu6AC ), and today I downloaded this model ( goo.gl/yV6xhU ), a Soviet KV-1 heavy tank. For a long time I wanted to print some tank on MY printer MYSELF, since I am a fan of tanks, and today, after a long search, I found a model of a tank for 3D printing. I would like to know from people more experienced in this matter how best to print this model, because it seems to be quite complicated. Thanks in advance!

Such models are usually cut into pieces. It will be difficult to print it in its entirety. You will definitely need support structures that you need to enable in the slicer settings.
Apparently, this model is not suitable for printing on FDM printers at all. This is just a 3d model of a tank torn from some game. And that's all. It will take a long time to experiment with the settings of a particular printer / slicer in order to get something decent in the end.
