Gnomes, Before and After

Jimi was asked to give some garden gnomes a makeover. No problem! With his trusty 3D-printer, he fixed some snapped extremities and gave each gnome a fresh coat of (improved) paint.

Before: Murderous gnome’s knife is broken!

After: That’s better. Bloody knife reattached and “Evil Gnomes” highlighted amongst other improvements in shading and detail.

Before: Faded and dull, this mean gnome is just misunderstood.

Angry gnome, sticking up his middle finger, is richly colored with a ginger beard, blue cap, and "Go Away" clearly written on a sign in front of him

After: Now this is an angry gnome! You can’t ignore his sign, his ginger beard, or his bright blue cap. GO AWAY!

Before: Angry? Maybe. Threatening? Nah.

After: LOOK OUT and say hello to his little friend! This gnome, with his salt-and-pepper beard and bright clothing, is ready to protect his stash.

Before: Gotta admit this Gnominator is a badass already, but…

After: Popping the detail with higher contrast, the upgraded Gnominator even has his designation, CSM-101 on his glasses. He’ll be back… in your garden.

Before: This gnomish master of Zen can only teach us so much with one of his middle fingers missing.

After: Now his true teachings can begin, with his restored finger and higher contrast coating of paint.
