There’s something timeless about the Walt Disney Partners statue—Walt holding the hand of the character that has brought so much joy to so many! My mom has always loved Disney, not just for the movies or characters, but for what it represents: family memories, childhood wonder, and the reminder that creativity never has to fade with age. The Partners Statue captures all of that in one image: Walt guiding Mickey, and Mickey inspiring Walt right back. I wanted to give her a piece of Disney magic and I felt like this was the perfect gift for her office!
I started by finding a detailed 3D model that captured the features of both Walt and Mickey clearly. Thanks to LindsayReplica for their model! I used a shimmery brown color to closely match the shiny bronze color of the Partners Statue in Disney World. Lastly, I finished it off by scaling it down some to fit right on the corner of her desk!
That’s the best thing about 3D printing and why we love what we do here at Goin Design, it isn’t just about the object you make, it’s about the story behind it. The intention, the hours put in, and the meaning it carries for the person receiving it.
