This is a full-scale 3D printable Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts, designed to fit on an i3 style printer. Most parts will fit on smaller printers, but some may require additional manual slicing before they can be printed. All components feature mating mechanisms so the components are easier to line up accurately during assembly.
Wall mount STL's for displaying it are also included.
After printing, all parts were sanded individually up to 200 grit to remove any severe print marks. Bondo was utilized to fill large voids or defects where necessary.
After each part was cleaned, all parts of the shaft, the handle, and hand guard were glued together with 2-part high strength epoxy to form the 3 main components. Gaps and seam lines were filled with Bondo, and sanded to 200 grit. Each component was sprayed with several layers of primer filler, and sanded to 800 grit.
Once all components were sanded and primed, each piece was painted with gloss clear coat and allowed to dry, then sprayed with Montana Metallic paint.
