Description
This is a silhouette of my recently passed Border Collie and her little brother and best buddy, a Tabby cat, designed for her memorial wall. It is a two-piece design to easily print on smaller beds, though you can scale it to whatever size you prefer.
Design Features & Assembly
Easy Alignment: The fence section laps perfectly underneath the cat’s paw for seamless alignment and easy gluing.
Stand-Alone Version Included: I have also included a version of the cat with the fence sticking out on both sides if you prefer to print them as entirely separate pieces.
Finishing Tip: I printed mine in gray and then painted them as needed. I would have painted the dog in black right away, but I was out of filament at the time! For the background color underneath (other then the white), I used thin colored cardboard from food boxes and glued it to the back to make the details pop.
