Make Your Own Mini-Me

Sculpteo is a French company that does 3-D printing from your own 3-D designs.  If you aren’t skilled in 3-D graphical design, Sculpteo has a special product that still lets you create your own customized figure.  You can create your own avatar simply by sending them two photos of yourself – face-on and profile – and specifying the type of clothing you’d like your figure to wear.  The experts at Sculpteo will handle the 3-D modeling, and you’ll get the chance to approve the model before it’s printed.  The avatars are available in two sizes:  2.75″ for about $82.50 and about 4″ for $123.90.  You can order multiples of the 2.75″ size for about $41 each and of the 4″ size for about $82 each.  Submit your pictures at the Sculpteo website to get started on your avatar.
