zbrush sculpt

Inspired on the new Planet of Apes.

I scanned my bother

This is actually a photoscan of a bust of a Russian poet Mayakovski. The original is located in central Moscow. It’s funny but the bust and the museum are embedded in a newly build former KGB buildings. The museum is actually located in KGB!

I just liked the sculpture which is quite brutal. I like Mayakovskiy as well.

Since Mayakovski committed a suicide in 1930 ( I could be mistaken with a date), I made auxiliary model with poor guy’s head blowing away. I am afraid tiny scull connectors may not be possible to replicate.

Artec has quite the fancy collections of 3d Scans over at artec3d.com/gallery/3d-models/ .
This model is of the scan of Soppho's Head. I think this model is absolutely beautiful and was thrilled to find it. The STL has been given a flat bottom and fixed for holes in netfabb.

I printed her in White PLA from ProtoParadigm. At arms length she looks like she was cast in plaster.

I was just reading the thingiverse blog old entries and found out about sculptris. So I ran it through some tests, and this is the second drawing that popped out. Surprise: it's another cat drawing. There's some weird thing going on internally with the mesh. I couldn't figure out how to fix this in meshlab or any other tool. Does anyone know how to kill internal vertices in a model?

This model started life as a bronze statue in my parents' house. I took photos and uploaded them using the Photofly software at labs.autodesk.com/utilities/photo_scene_editor/ to create an .OBJ file. I then closed up any holes using NetFabb Studio's repair function and then cropped and resized the model in Blender to make a printable bust.
Unbelievable technology and all free. Huge thanks to all the developers.

added more detail in zbrush.. then reduced the polygoncount back to half the amount.

i will work on this more later.. maybe adding LED eyes

Ok smarty, go to a party, yo Bust A Buser

This OpenSCAD script creates two parts - a stand with a customizable name text in 8bit font thingiverse.com/thing:2054 and slices up a head scan and adds a pin connector slot thingiverse.com/thing:10288 This way you can make the head super big to get more detail to show as well as avoid the overhang under the bust from causing problems.

As an added bonus, my bust is now modular so you can use pin connectors to attach it to other things. You know you want to.

I've been playing with AutoDesk's Project Photofly, and this is the best scan I've come up with so far. I'm learning more and more about the project (it sucks that it requires Windows to use… it needs a Mac OS X version). So far I'm impressed with the software, and results. Decent scans using only a digital camera. I'll post photos when it finishes printing :)
