Description

I got this at Obscura Antiques obscuraantiques.com in NYC. ( because I'm a huge fan of the show Oddities dsc.discovery.com/tv/oddities ) I went looking for something I could do a 3D scan of and print on my MakerBot. This was the creepiest, cheapest thing I could find that I thought would scan well. It also made me laugh when I pulled the string and found the mouth still moved.

It appears to be a 1930's Walt Disney Dopey Dwarf from Snow White, see: royaleaffairdolls.com/Repairs.html

I scanned it with Spinscan thingiverse.com/thing:9972 Which now supports color textured scans. The dimensions are still a little off causing scans to be squashed slightly... Math is hard. Let's go shopping!

Instructions

To get a color obj from spinscan's point cloud, after you've calculated vertex normals and run the poisson surface reconstruction in meshlab - run the Sampling -> Vertex Attribute Transfer filter, selecting from the ply to the poisson mesh to transfer the color property of the vertexes to the model texture.

I just uploaded a new dopey1.stl with a little better dimensions so the ears are easier to print.

dam really need to build my version 3.0 head scanner now ;) nice job with the color scanning btw. and yes it is creepy but a cool kind of creepy

Super creepy!
