    Default I want to make my first copper wall art

    Hi folks! This is my first post so hello all of you

    I wish to create fingerprint sculpture made of copper or aluminium sheet.

    I have sample of 3d image created in photoshop. I want to get similar effect, maybe not so much detailed as on pic I show you...

    What best technique to make it? BY hand ? I saw some utube tutorials like they push and squeeze metal sheet between two rolls and the shape is than created.

    First I was thinking of making that design in wood but I think in metal wit patinas it will look better !

    Thank you for help on this project and sorry for my bad English as I am not native

    all best !
    Nora


    size approx 15inch x 15inch. heigh of lines approx. 3 mm.

    Looks ideal for 3D printing.
