Modelers clay/putty - the kind that you can bake to harden. Or Apoxie sculpt which hardens in about 24 hours
Fine sculpting tools - chisels spatulas picks And a magnifying headset with lights I think micro Mark sells almost all that stuff. The little tools for sure. Sometimes old tech is best tech |

My sculpting skills are almost non existent. I can make blobs, and snakes but that's about it.

The scroll works are acanthus leaves.
I doubt you’re going to find anything that matches up in that scale, even from high end doll house furniture. |

You are seriously overthinking this.
This is about 15 minutes of goofying around. You would have to trim around the scroll and it would be a whole lot better if someone cleaned up the pic. But you get what you pay for. This is a screenshot of a ready to print STL file. Attached File |

I saw this on another group. Thought you might the description that went along with this photo that you posted up above.
 #OTD in 1908, over one million people came out to watch USS Connecticut lead the Great White Fleet into San Francisco Bay. The fleet was completing the first leg of a global goodwill tour to demonstrate U.S. naval power. The beautiful white ships with gilded scrollwork caused a sensation wherever they went. When the fleet arrived in Sydney 3 months later, it was estimated that over 500,000 of the city's 600,000 residents greeted the ships. |

I need to know the size and you will have to give me a few days. It isn't perfect, but beats what you have now.
