Ornate picture frame

cults3d

I'm collecting old baroque picture frames for some years now to publish my photos in them (and to distract the viewers eye from the amateurish photos to all the ornaments and shiny stuff). So I was searching the web for printable models of such frames - to no avail. It seems like a combined obsession for frames and 3d-printing is kind of a niche-fetish. . . I have had a lot of problems with my laptop. On the page I found the model). As it is a free design available on the web, I decided that it would not be a huge crime to do that - so unless the designer will not bother me I'll keep it uploaded here for general enjoyment. Anyway I'd like to thank Jan Sinovski for designing and publishing that frame. Here is the original file:http://archive3d.net/?a=download&id=5621787b edit: Oh, and the caption to the picture says "flatmate of the month" ... which is me. Forever. editedit: I sprayed the white frame from my pictures with golden paint. Looks better than expected (see new picture). Gonna try that next with a wooden-printed frame. editedit: I put some work into smoothing the surfaces to make it bigger. After doing so I split the frame into 8 pieces to be printed on to 20x20 buildplate. The whole thing is a ghost and a total of 1,1kg of material (incl. Support). . I'll upload pictures as soon as the whole thing is done; I still have to glue it together, hide the gaps with acrylic filler, coat it in epoxy, sand it and paint it golden / black.
