Go to all my models

So I'm making a model in 3ds Max 2010, but I'm wondering about the field of view setting.

http://i.imgur.com/mNkyv.jpg

Left is my model at a FOV of 1 degree, and right is at the default in Max of 45 degrees.

I'm guessing the look of what I actually print will depend on how far the viewer is from the finished object as well as the size of it (the head will be about the size of a chicken's egg), but will be somewhere in between those two. I'm hoping I'm not going to end up with something that looks just like the picture on the left in real life... At least, I sure hope not because I'd have to re-model and re-print.

Anyone have any guidance about what setting I should be using for the best results?
