By order of 3D Culture we were allowed to produce an imposing, 4 meter high figure. First, individual body parts were milled from polystyrene using CNC machining centers.
Since the figure was later to be given an illuminated arm by the customer, cable ducts for the electrical installation had to be taken into account.
The milled individual parts were glued together and the surface was given an initial sealant. Thus, the giant was ready to be sheathed in FRP. After the finishing work on the surface, it was painted uniformly in white according to the customer’s wishes.
The impressive giant then cut an undoubtedly fine figure at the trade show for five days.
