Printed and painted test for potential bronze casting

Hello 👋 first post here

Thought I would share my project and am curious if anyone may have any advice / experience on casting bronze using a 3d print.

I have made this on blender and printed it on a H2D as a visualisation for my plan, printed in PLA and painted with acrylics.

But I plan on making it 50% larger and trying to cast in bronze as an urn for my departed Norwegian forest cat Skogr.

Any tips would be appreciated 😊

Skogr urn / ship update

Hello 👋

Thought I would let you guys see my progress on the ship and urn i am making for my viking warrior cat Skogr that unfortunately passed a few weeks ago.

Unfortunately the tides and weather have not been good for launching the ship, so in the meantime I have made progress on making an urn for him.

Got him printed in this violent shade of green, but with a few layers of acrylic paint ive made it look hopefully more rustic.

I'll be sure to post video of the pyre ship serimony when I can but in the meantime, im looking at getting this cast in actual bronze in 50% bigger!
