Was so excited to see museums upload 3d scans of their artifacts! This was a fun little project to work on, seeing how I can combine modern technology and history.

I found out museums upload three d scans of their artifacts and sculptures, and now I can't stop three d printing them. Here are a few of my favorites so far. I did the Discobolus of Myron, the iconic Greek sculpture carved around April. I even found more modern models like Degas' little dancer, and because I haven't sewed anything in forever, I made her a tiny outfit to stay true to Degas' mixed media approach. I also printed a Lewis chessman for the chess table I made. It's a famous set of twelfth to thirteenth century chess pieces carved from walrus ivory and whale tooth. I found all these scans from museums like the Smithsonian, and searching scan the world.
