Finally, we will introduce a case where the client came to our company, made adjustments in front of us, and was satisfied.
A request was made to create a large, shining moon that would leave a lasting impression on customers visiting the store. At the time of the request, demolition work was underway, and they wanted it to be made at the maximum size that could fit through the second-floor window. While we had experience with smaller transparent FRP molds, this size was truly impressive. Initially, we considered adjusting the number of layers of glass fiber to express a mottled effect with colors similar to those of a real moon, and we began the sample production from there. The actual piece was recreated from data, and we focused on painting it as thinly and evenly as possible, incorporating actual lighting to achieve a beautiful finish without any unevenness. In the end, the client visited our company, and we made adjustments right in front of them, resulting in their great satisfaction.

basic information
**Overview** - Initially, I thought about adjusting the number of layers of glass fiber to express the mottled appearance in colors similar to those of the actual moon, and from there, I began sample production. - Gradually, I increased the size and repeatedly experimented with painting and crater expressions. - The biggest challenge was how to perform the monolithic molding. - While using existing spherical molds allows for a smooth surface, the issue of how to overcome the inevitable joint marks when connecting hemispheres arose, as well as how to reflect the actual moon's patterns on the surface. - The solution I arrived at was a lunar texture map. - I divided it into a watermelon shape to use as a template for a balloon, creating a spherical balloon printed with the moon's patterns, and then molded transparent FRP over it. - Finally, I hypothesized that by removing the balloon through a hole for fixing the upper lighting, I could achieve a pattern and mottled appearance closer to actual data, and I produced a small balloon for testing. - I also focused on creating a painted surface that was as thin and uniform as possible, incorporating actual lighting. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
