Here is a model I made to display the UCS Gunship on a wall. This set is very hard to display because it's both super deep and super wide. This mount should help find a suitable location that won't take up a lot of room.

My recommendations are to print it on its side so the layer lines are opposing stress directions. As if you were looking at the model on your wall, print it on its right or left side with supports. I also used 5 walls and 4 top and bottom layers with 30% gyroid infill. 
I also strongly recommend some good wall anchors and, better yet, hitting a stud for half of the holes. And the anchors I used were some plastic toggles that were rated for around 100 lbs. I would just go for real robust anchors 

I have had my gunship up for about a month, and while it is quite scary to have an extremely large and expensive Lego set up so high, where a failure would inevitably cause much much pain... I have had 0 issues so far. And with a high wall count, high infil, strategic layer line direction, and 8 anchors. I do not think there should be any issues.

I also made a little piece that you can put the plaque and minifigures on and use a command strip to display them underneath the gunship.
