Guglielmo Giovanni Maria Marconi, 1st Marquess 25 April 1874 – 20 July 1937), was an Italian radio-frequency engineer, inventor, and politician known for his creation of a practical radio wave-based wireless telegraph system. This led to him being largely credited as the inventor of radio[ and sharing the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy." His work laid the foundation for the development of radio, television, and all modern wireless communication systems.
As an entrepreneur and a businessman, Marconi founded the Marconi Company in the United Kingdom in 1897. In 1929, he was ennobled as a marquess by Victor Emmanuel III. In 1931, he set up Vatican Radio for Pope Pius XI.
All around great guy deserving of a 3d printable bust. If he were alive today he would be into 3d printing.
I printed it with 5% infill. I supersized it a bit. I made the bottom 12-15 layers solid to add base weight.
I'm experimenting with AI. I did do some changes to him in cad. But he was made with and AI assistant.
I printed this twice. I don't like AI models that are just renderings. I like to print my models before posting them so they are proven.
Enjoy happy printing.
