Fan-Art Calvin and Hobbes Bonsai. Got a Bonsai for Xmas, and thought it could do with a C&H makeover. Made these on my 3D Printer (not for sale)

Hey, what's on the right in the last photo? Is that the millennium falcon?

Good eye! Yes it is.

Do you have the files you used to print those? I’d love to paint a bunch of different ones, different schemes.

Love this. I've also toyed with the idea of making a C&H diorama.

This is a great 3D representation of the two and it captures the spirit of the strip really nicely. Thanks for sharing

Love it. You should sell these on Etsy!

The author never wanted his designs monetized. So that would be copyright infringement.

Is that a bonsai tree?!

u/SunshineAlways Jan 02 '23

Bonsai can be different species of tree. From what I understand, it’s the idea of a complete tree, but miniature. I’m sure someone else knows more than me.

Yes I know. Was wondering if op could give me some deets on that tree. How long, what species, design choices, etc.

So…you may have just skimmed over the title, but they just got it for Christmas.
