3D Print Yourself

Look at the girl in this photo. At first it seems that she is real, but in fact this is a miniature copy of a real girl, printed on a 3D printer!

German company Twinkind uses 360-degree scanning and 3D printing technology to create small figurines that are replicas of their customers, Wired reports. The figurine in full color and volume conveys all the details - from the pose and facial expression to the slightest folds on the clothes.

The founders of Twinkind, Christina Neuror and Timo Schadel, were inspired by miniature figurines printed at Omote's 3D photo booth in Tokyo. Twinkind's 3D printing technology is more precise than in Tokyo, but the creators still ask their customers not to come to the "shoot" in silk, tulle or chiffon. They also ask them to remove their glasses during the scan, as they are printed separately to create a more believable image. After scanning, Twinkind creates a digital model of the client, which can be edited and sent to print.

15. A 3D photo booth has opened in Tokyo that gives out painted miniature figures with amazing detail instead of photos. As part of the Omote 3D Shashinkan project, created by the Japanese creative agency Party, anyone can purchase a model of themselves in three sizes: 10 centimeters, 15 centimeters and 20 centimeters. Prices start at 21,000 yen (about 7,400 rubles) for the smallest figurine; discounts are provided for group compositions.

20. To receive their own small copy, the client must stand still for fifteen minutes while being scanned. The 3D model is printed using a color 3D printer.

21. The booth will run as a pop-up project at the Gyre Shopping Center in Omotesando until January 14th. This isn't the first 3D photo booth: US 3D printer company Makerbot opened a photo booth in a New York store last week. Unlike the Japanese project, their booth creates a model of the client's head.
