Realistic Middle-Aged Man Bust

A lifelike human portrait captured fully in the round. Despite the file code and the mandala-flavoured tags, the model itself is a realistic sculpted head of a middle-aged man — close-cropped hair receding at the temples, a heavy furrowed brow, deep-set watchful eyes, a straight prominent nose and a firm, level mouth above a strong jaw. The surface carries genuine portrait detail: forehead creases, crow's feet and the soft folds around the mouth, the kind of thing that reads as a scanned or hand-sculpted likeness rather than a stylised bust. It suits portrait carvers, memorial and commemorative makers, and anyone practising realistic head sculpture. Printed on its own it stands as a display bust; flattened, it also works as a high-relief medallion or plaque face. Print / CNC notes • 3D print face-up or slightly tilted, with supports under the nose, brow and chin overhangs; resin captures the pores and wrinkles far better than FDM. • For CNC, run it as a 3D relief with a roughing pass then a fine ball-nose finishing pass to keep the eyes and hairline crisp. • Scale up to a mantel-sized bust, or shrink for a pendant or medallion; hollow larger prints to save material. • Hardwoods and dense modelling board hold the fine facial lines best.
