A weight lifting club has ask us to make some life sized (d=17.5"x thick=1.25") awards for a meet and we are not up and running yet (no bot just started fundraising for school shop) and was wondering if anyone could help out?

Those are pretty much duck soup. If you don't get someone nearby let me know by PM. If they have clean line-art on the tiger, it's really easy. If they don't, a scan at high res from a decal can work.

looks like you plan to vcarve the 45 lbs.
I would leave it proud. I've never seen a plate with the number indented.

Had some size changes due to $$ (now 7.75 OD) but four are being made.

Very nice work. I have done some 3d stuff (2.5d actually) but I am still working on getting a really nice finish. I'm sure those trophies will be cherished by all the winners and coveted by those that did not win! Thanks for posting. Russ

Your welcome Kyle! Glad to help out. Thanks for your part too!

Russ, these were done all 2D and v-carve, no 3D relief model involved.
