Boomerang Thổ Dân (Aboriginal) - Australia

⬛🟡🟥 Welcome to Australia! 🇦🇺🦘

This model is a little different from what we usually do in MiniWorld3D. Instead of a landmark or famous building, this is part of a series of objects representing art & design of the world. Together, they decorate a themed room in a miniature mansion!

This model represents a wooden boomerang decorated with patterns characteristic of Aboriginal Australians and represents Oceania!

Other objects in this series include:

• Amazigh Rug - North Africa
• Dala Horse - Sweden, Europe
• Totonaca Mask - Mexico, Americas
• Korean Fan - Asia

You can find the full project here, the modular rooms mansion is designed by @skip_per07, main 3D prints and photography by @maisonlumiere_3d using Polymaker3D filaments, and this specific object and everything in the MiniWorld3D travel-themed room was designed by Dany Sánchez. Other renowned designers have decorated other themed rooms!
 

About the Aboriginal Australian Boomerang

The non-returning boomerang has been used by some Aboriginal Australians for hunting for thousands of years. Although mostly associated with Australia, ancient boomerangs have been discovered in other continents too. Aside from its use as a hunting or war weapon, they were typically useful too for digging, starting fires, and as a percussion musical instrument (from Wikipedia).

MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this cultural model to life as a homage to the people of Australia. This model was created from scratch by hand and brain in parametric software to ensure printability, using photographs to create a beautiful and stylized version. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture!
