Modern 3D Printed Desk Art
This is a modern layered car sculpture designed as a stylish desk decoration or display piece. The model uses a series of stacked contour layers to create the silhouette of a classic sports car, giving it a unique sliced design aesthetic. From a distance the form looks smooth and continuous, but up close the layered structure reveals the geometry of the model and highlights the beauty of 3D printing.
The sculpture sits on a flat display base and works great as a minimalist desk ornament, office decoration, or gift for car enthusiasts. The layered construction also makes it visually interesting from different viewing angles, with light catching the edges of each contour.
Modeled with using supports in mind, the body should be printed in one piece. Take a look around the wheel arches if every overhang gets supported. For the nicest finish, set seams to back (bottom) of the car. This is not an easy print, but the finished result is well worth it. I included prinatble wheels but I'm looking for a better, nicer looking finish. Either painting them or machining and polishing them on a lathe.
I ordered Panchroma PLA silk and Metallic and acrylic 15x20cm self adhesive mirrors (TEMU) to stick on the display base. I will update my model when I get the chance to print it and if necesary make further adjustments. I just wanted to share this already for the dare devils and guinea pig among us. But for now, its still just a concept idea.
