It’s Tuesday again…time for T stands for Tuesday hosted by Elizabeth. Grab a cup and stay awhile.
The past week is one of those I’d like to forget ever happened. Instead I’m going to talk about some pleasant things like what I’ve been doing with the 3D printed items Mr. G has been creating. There is a fantastic resource out there called Thingiverse. It has CAD files for 3D printing for an ever growing number of things anyone can imagine.
Anyone familiar with Game of Thrones??
Hand of the King…just after I started the sanding process.
a little more smooth…nearly ready to paint.
Did you know that a red base layer makes gold deeper and richer?
What do you think? I think it looks pretty awesome…aw crud… except….
that the photo should have been taken in this orientation. Such as this. DUH!
Oh well…no one is perfect. I blame my everlasting cold virus for my lapse of clear thought.
That’s it for today…more projects to come.
What are you doing today?
I’m striking out all the way around. First, I came to visit, then my computer froze and quit on me. I went back to the very basics and started from scratch. Even ran a defrag hoping it would speed things up a bit.
I have never seen that movie, show, or whatever it is. Yep, I live in the dark ages, apparently, and it appears that must be where this image is taken from. But I’m super impressed with the hand and sword. Really cool that you are able to create something so wonderful. I can see this in a mixed media piece. I’d LOVE to have one of those printers (but guess I’ve said that before).
Thanks for sharing this with us for T this week.
I have heard of GOT but have had no desire to see it. However, your piece is fantastic!!! And what a cool way to achieve it too. Wishing you a much brighter week ahead and happy T day!
First off..WISHING YOU AN AMAZINGLY GREAT WEEK !!!! Love the 3D art. It must be so much fun to have one of those printers. Thanks for sharing with us.
I am not a fan of GOT, but know lots who are, glad you are enjoying it, and love the ornament you made. Have a great T Day, hugs, Valerie
i´m not familiar with GOT, but it really is great what These 3d Printers can achieve!
have a mending week ahead:)
Wow! That is amazing! What a machine! No, I have not heard of Game of Thrones, but then we can’t go to the cinema here and we don’t have TV. (Don’t know if it is a tv programme or a film or even a game…)Whatever it is The Kings Hand is beautiful! Well done and thanks for showing us.
I did giggle at you rude gesture, lol.
I haven’t linked up yet for the simple reason I have not written anything yet. I will soon. We are in a bit of a situation here, which is will be resolved but you will read about it in my blog later on.
Happy T day

How cool is that!!!! I love what those 3D printers can do, and you made an awesome Game of Thrones piece. Will it be a pin or something good? Happy T day to you and hope this week is better!
I am in total awe of 3D printers and from this project I can see you are going to be making a lot of really cool things. I’m a GOT fan–have seen all the shows and read all the books except for the latest which I don’t know if it is even out yet!
Thanks for sharing this on T Day!
We don’t have cable, but I’ve seen the first 2 (3, maybe?) seasons on DVD. I tried the books and found them long-winded and tedious. Not the tv series lol. Have you seen the video that explains what it’s like to read the books? It’s hilarious.
I think playing with the 3D printer will be great fun!
OH YES! I am a BIG fan of GOT!!! and recognized the “Hand of the King” immediately!
That is so cool! I cannot even imagine how fun that 3D printer must be to play with.
I did not know that the red underpainting is what makes the gold so much richer looking…..good to know. Thanks for sharing.
Happy T-day
Hubs and i just mentioned last night we’d love to have a 3D printer.. they sound so cool. Love what you have there… LOVE your purple mug too!! Happy Tday! Hugs! deb
How cool that looks – amazing!
Happy T-Day Halle!
I have never seen Game of Thrones although I know one of my sons watches it! I can see hubby has had fun with his new toy! I love how you have made it look like gold! Hugs, Chrisx
I’m not familiar with GOT.But love your project. Hope you feel better soon
That is a gorgeous piece… I didn’t know that about red and gold…hope this week is a better one!
I love Game of Thrones–even if I get lost in the map and the maze of families and names–LOL! This is awesome! Happy T-Day! :)
Nice! Isn’t technology amazing? Belated Happy T Day!
Fun to see what your 3D printer produced. I didn’t know about the red under gold trick, thanks for the tip.
