Blender used for 3D Printing of extincted creatures!
Blender was used to re-create long extinct animals.
Over the past few years, we’ve seen 3D printing prove itself an invaluable resource for engineers. It’s helped us build prosthetics, instruments, drones – hell, we’ve even printed a mini jet engine that can blast at 33,000 RPM. But in the hands of creatives, the hackable tech has done something else entirely: allowed them to make unbelievable art. For University of Chicago assistant professor Dr. Allan Drummond, that art comes in the form of resurrecting ancient beasts.
There is something so interesting about this. Taking the drawings and recreating them to scale, and physically touching them; it makes it real. Great article.
