@cutelewds @comboreckless It happens to the best of us

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@SixerMerchant My friend creates the model over the course of a few days. I create a mold based on the model which takes either 2 hours or 3 days (mostly waiting) depending on the mold method. Its then fired for 1 day and after the bronze is poured, it goes through 1 - 3 hour of clean up/polish

Cast bronze Appuls
Anyways guess I’m not dead

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@madezel98 This is so insanely good. I remember seeing the WIP and being super excited for the final project. Love Tally Hall so it’s super awesome seeing it ponified.

@Lunarbula Do you have any tips for printing large statues? I plan to do something similar for Twilight, but I need to get it perfect since I plan to use the print to cast a life size bronze statue of her.

A perfectly on time bronze sculpture of a Hearth's Warming Pinkie Pie.

@hattpone Putting final in a file name means you’re only around 5 edits away from the final file save

@PonyQuarantine Get me a Dyx 3d model for me to cast and ill make you one of the model

[Lenny @copperhorse]

Secret Santa gift I made and totally forgot to take a good picture of. Guess it’s also a Dyxcember cast.
Anyways expect more maybe in the future if I can find it in myself to stop being lazy.
Like usual, model by my friend Hoover and casting by me

@Loafanon @ja0822ck Aliens did this. There’s no way ancient loaf could ever carry this much loaf up a loaf pyramid

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@Loafanon You think I ever wore clothes while casting molten metal in the first place? How would I build up my fire resistance if I block out all the fire?

[Lenny @copperhorse]

Would anyone be interested in my posting my WIPs to see my method of casting sculptures/so theres something in between the 2 months it takes me to stop being lazy and make something? Maybe itll help me work more consistently too. Never did it since I didn’t want to flood too much

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@SigilPonies True

@buttercupsayn My fdm printer is a Bambu p1s which I got on sale for around $500 and my resin printer is a Uniformation gk2 I got on sale for $550

[Lenny @copperhorse]

One last tweet about Rainbowshine with a 360 view of her. Sorry for not using a proper one with a stabilized tripod and that she was too heavy for my rotating base lol

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@buttercupsayn I’m pretty sure both of us have printers, but I’m the one who printer her specifically

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@buttercupsayn The sculpture is the cast itself and yes, it’s cast out of silicon bronze. It was made by 3d printing it, smoothing it, covering it in a ceramic shell slurry, burning out the 3d print, and then pouring molten bronze into the now empty ceramic shell in the shape of the 3d print

[Lenny @copperhorse]

@buttercupsayn Nope. This was a collaboration between me and my friend Hoover. He did the modeling, I did the casting
