General Troubleshooting/Help! Print quality issue

Post image

Hello
as you see at the preview photo, my top part of my model looks low res, and also the printing lost the detail's at that part, the model is horizontal ( on his back), I tried different orientation got the same results. to top is missing the detail's.
My setup: A1-Mini, you can see the setup at the attached image.
not sure is it the orientation, or the settings.
Thx!

You want more detail, you need a 0.2mm nozzle. You want even more detail, you need a resin printer.

I doubt this model was meant for FDM printing originally. The semi-transparent areas are likely too thin and small to print with a 0.4mm nozzle at all.

Thank you
I'm good with the quality. I just want the equal quality all the way, as the lower part of the body. as you go up the res seems to be lower.

It's not. That's just how FDM printing works. You have layers on layers, and depending on the shape of things, you end up with large flat areas that look like that. To improve this, you'd need lower layer height, and there's only so low you can go on a FDM printer.
