Brutal But Delicious - a Purity Seal(ed) Cake
Not a promising start
My partner’s lad is about to turn 12. To her absolute horror he’s got into 40k, so his birthday party will have a grimdark feel. She’s a true cake genius but wanted a couple of props to finish off. I’d painted a Primaris marine for it and had grandiose plans to sculpt a purity seal.
The project did not begin well.
Hardly an unqualified success.They say “fail early, fail often” and I certainly did here. I took to eBay and picked up a 3d printed purity seal, thinking I’d have chance to get it done in time.
Much better!The photo above follows a bit of sanding. I had pictures of both stages but they were near-identical. There seemed little point showing both.
I rather liked the initial sketch.. lol
It was a triumph of optimism over ability – briefly.
