ROLLS ROYCE DESKTOP CLOCK PHANTOM modeling and painting exercise

I decided to make a virtual model of a Rolls Royce table clock and print it. The objective for this was to detect any structural faults on the 1:1 scale. Another reason was the evaluation of various colour media; for the colours, I utilised mica powder mixed with different substances, and I determined that wood varnish was the ideal. As a result, the mixture had a 1:1 ratio of wood varnish and mica powder. Because I used mica powder and acrylic medium, the colour of the frame is matt. The entire model is made up of 13 sections that are joined together. The transparent plastic component imitates glass, however its surface reflection is not as exact as that of glass. I used glow powder for both the time indicators and the dial. It was once again a combination of glow powder and wood varnish, and once more a combination of glow powder and epoxy resin (time indicators). This concept will be developed over in the future.
