That’s the last of the models done. Also they’re all varnished ready for gold leaf now.

 

You can see the snake model only just fits in the photo booth.

 

The joints on the snake model didn’t line up perfectly. I put it down to print defects that weren’t obvious before assembly. As I originally wanted to use the models unpainted I couldn’t use a putty to fix the gaps. Instead I used an old paintbrush to paint the printing resin into the gap a thin layer at a time and cured it with a UV torch. It worked ok but destroyed the local detail. Overall I think it looks better than a big gap. With practice the technique could have better results.
