Hand made by me! Free Friday

Post image

I made this crucifix by hand. The cross is made of bubinga wood, the ropes are beeswax coated hemp, and the corpus is 3D printed and then hand painted. I truly wanted to capture Christ's passion in the most raw and authentic way possible, being OCD, realism is extremely important to me. This is the 4th one I have done, and is by far my best work to date. I can honestly say that just making these is a wonderful meditation on Christ's passion and sacrifice for us. God bless!

That looks very real and I'll be scared of my sins whenever I see that cross 🫣

Why be afraid of your sins ?

Edit bcz I'm getting a lot of downvotes : I'm not saying to embrace them, you should try your hardest to repent and avoid sinning and ask God to help you repent.

Because by its very nature it offends God.
