YEP!! wish i had thought about gold leafing before I printed and painted a bunch of these for family. I am going to try at least one in gold leafing. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks. I’m liking the Voice Over format because I can work out what to say after the video has been edited (instead of while I’m working). Also I get to use my fancy podcast microphone!!
@@ImNotBoredImCreative I think it did make for a more planned experience. I've seen a lot of 3d printer videos and I very rarely see their prints come out as shiny as yours did. Even though there were hours of sanding, I think a video with some of the steps shown would be great. You know, not showing the entire process, but what it looks like after each grit and info on how long it took with each grit.
It doesn’t seem to be fragile at all. I have handled it without any trouble. I do assume that if I were to scrape it with something that it might scrape the leaf off, but it stands up to occasional handling without issue. I would suggest a gloss coat over it to protect it if it were to be used extensively.
@@ImNotBoredImCreative thanks for your response, that's surprising but also cool, will be trying this soon. There is another RU-vidr who adds a "dark wash" at the end to give the gold an aged look, may give that a try as well
