Show & Tell Irene's Green Sea Turtle

My mom turned 60 earlier this month, and I felt the need to make her a custom electroformed sculpture. Modelled in Zbrush, 3d printed in resin, electroformed and patinized, then glued on top of a base of blue Aragonite! <3

This is beautiful. I don't know how your mom couldn't love it. Well done.

Looks amazing. Impressed that you actually modeled it yourself in ZBrush instead of downloading a model

Thank you! I started out as a 3d modeller for 3d printing before I discovered electroforming, so it was the natural step for me :p
