Description

This dramatic statue is in the Hirshhorn Sculpture Garden in the Washington DC mall.
dcmemorials.com/index_indiv0000455.htm
I selected it partly for the interesting subject matter and partly because it looked pretty printable, with no serious overhangs.
I took 30 high resolution photos from all around the statue and uploaded them using 123D Catch to make the model.

Instructions

I have added some hollow cylinders inside the model to reduce the amount of plastic used when infill is turned on. Keeping a medium infill density will help to keep the top surfaces from falling into the model.

I just made a sub-folder on my sd-card called "rodin". Amazing how many good Rodin models are on thingiverse. Thank you!

Awesome! I love Rodin's Gates of Hell works. Think it'd be possible to do Fallen Caryatid Carrying Her Stone or would the overhangs be an issue? I was thinking it might be possible with support either turned on or built in.

I think that looks printable and I agree it would be a great one for a capture if anyone knows where to find a copy.

Thanks for the hollow cylinders inside the model idea!

I have major issues with the top of model holes.
(I tend to have rounded tops (ie heads) on my models)
using infill seemed wasteful.
I will see if I can incorporate that strategy (or a similar method)
to 'buttress' the top of models.
