4 Star Dragonball

I've been eager to create this model for a long time now, but I knew it would be extremely challenging for my wife to complete on her own. However, she's made tremendous progress with this type of project and I'm confident that she can handle it. The model itself is incredibly straightforward - it's simply a sphere cut in half, featuring four stars protruding from the top. Printing requires no supports, making the process even smoother. To bring the model to life, my wife first sanded it gently to minimize the visibility of layer lines, then applied a generous coat of primer after assembling the pieces together. To conceal the seam, she used repair putty to fill in the gap, followed by additional sanding and priming. Once the surface was smooth, she gave the entire model a bright yellow finish using an airbrush. Subsequently, she added a light orange hue with subtle iridescence, achieved through a secondary airbrush application. The stars were then meticulously painted with a brush, and finally, a glossy coat was sprayed all over to complete the model's vibrant appearance.
