Here are some scaled-up fake chicken feet resin models we made for a deli. Braised chicken feet is one of the famous dishes in China and some delis even take it as their specialty.
Solution
Step 1: The key factors of making realistic fake foods are 3D modeling and painting. The designer buys some real chicken feet from the market and builds the models with great patience. We can also scan the real food and repair the 3D scans. But it’s unnecessary for such simple objects.
Step 2: After the client is sure about size, material, and desired surface, we offer a quote to him and feed the STL file into slicer software and arrange the placement.
Step 3: 3D print the full-scale models together with the necessary supports using SLA Generic Resin. Post-process them by washing with IPA, post-curing with UV, cutting off the supports, and air-drying. Then paint them using airbrushes and specially picked colors. Finally, spray with matte clear acrylic oil.
