Keyblade Name Plaque

thingiverse

I created a custom name plaque for a customer's wife that incorporated a Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts. The Keyblade itself was designed by CapnMyCapn, whom I credited and derived inspiration from. The rest of the plaque was made entirely from scratch. To complete it, I applied gold leaf to the key components and attached a basic gold-toned chain to the hilt. To assemble the name plate, I divided it into two parts. This allowed me to avoid manually switching filaments multiple times while printing the separate elements with different colored plastics, which saved on material waste since the first print job had already resulted in excessive plastic use. When working with gold leaf, be aware that inserting it into small spaces can be quite frustrating and requires patience.
