Description
Here is the marvellous replica of the St Edwards Crown that I made as a commission for Adam Savage and have permission to upload it. Here are the videos on YouTube he's posted about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrlQ0dzQHUI&t=2s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7GPx7U_KR8 I created this using many images and videos of the real crown and painstakingly recreate as accurate as I could. The crown breaks down into 47 pieces to make printing, assembly and painting easier. All the large items also come in single piece print for the people with bigger printers. All parts in the broken-down version will print on a 200x200x200mm print volume. With the number of small items to print and unique locations the gems and their location are marked with numbers or letters to ensure you can position them all correctly. All the gem holders are bare as Adam wanted to select faux acrylic/glass gems to give a realistic look so these will have to be sourced to fully complete the model. The same is said for the gold balls that surround the crown, these will need to be sourced, they are approximately 7mm diameter and you can buy strings of beads that can be cut to length and glued on.There is a base band that is meant to be a base or pattern for the fur that cushions the bottom of the crown. This is down to how you want to use the prop. For all the gem holders, the best method to capture the detail would be to resin print them.
