1:1 Saw Cleaver Replica from Bloodborne (2023)

Many things I love about this build, one of which being the first large scale print project I actually finished, I am very happy with the outcome of this and learned a lot along the way from how to fix printing errors to different techniques when it comes to painting and sealing the paint too. As this was a gift for someone I had a date I wanted this done by but running into some unexpected issues delayed that by a day or two. This will definitely be something I revisit for myself at a later date and hopefully record the process of doing that one too!
