Stylized Mount Rushmore

This is a stylized version of Mt. Rushmore featuring busts of those four presidents that clearly don't resemble their real counterparts, yet we love it! I sourced Teddy Roosevelt from the Scan the World archive at https://www.myminifactory.com/object/bust-of-theodore-roosevelt-at-the-american-museum-of-natural-history-2011. With its use, the entire project can be published under the license of my choice, something that wouldn't be possible using a Roosevelt model on Thingiverse. I utilized models from Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1022758, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:822881, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:221889, and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:951932. Lens frames were added to Roosevelt's model with the knowledge that they're too thin to print well, which surprisingly turned out great for one of the few times in 3D printing! It was intentional. Only fragments of them sliced and printed, resulting in a print that resembles the real Mt. Rushmore in that respect. I sculpted eyes onto Jefferson's model, put a mouth on him, and repaired the top of his head to bring him up to speed with the other models he'd be next to. I also mottled his skin slightly. No supports were needed - my favorite kind of print! I have one modeled with trees on it, but I plan to examine photographs of the actual place now and relocate them accordingly! I'll be adding that file soon.
