Ornamental Bonsai Sculpture

Hey Guys,

I thought I would share this here. This is something I have been playing with on and off for a while with the end result being something I could get printed. I’ve uploaded it to Shapeways which is a 3d printing service where the model can be printed and bought. It stands 15cm tall and is printed in a high strength plastic material, these pics are only renders of the sculpture but I will update with actual photos once my one arrives.

Cheers, Benny

We have about 30 of the little ones (real) in the back yard.
Judging by the price, you are having it printed solid?

Nice shapes…maybe a little outside “The Golden Section - Law of Proportionality”… still nice. :slight_smile:

Thanks guys! It finally arrived today. I’m really happy with how well it turned out. It needed a few tweaks as many of the finer branches were too small to print so the most of the tree was thickened. Let me know what you think.

3Point14 - I also have 15 or so real trees in the backyard :smiley: The model is hollow but only the pot and about half of the trunk as I didn’t want it to be easily broken.
