Ancient Egyptian Ankh

If you want to see more, watch this video. This Ankh is modeled after an Ancient Egyptian Artifact. It's essentially a golden key shape with hieroglyphs imprinted into it. I designed this in Fusion 360 using the sketch tool to trace the reference image I brought in. Next, I printed it out on my Robo3D R1 printer. The layer height was set at 0.3mm because smaller heights don't offer much benefit. No supports were needed for this print. After printing, my wife sanded the surface extensively to achieve a smooth finish. Then she primed it, applied gold spray paint, and used a wash to darken the cracks in the hieroglyphs.
