That’s what I call real 3D-printing! :D
I was honored to take part in this amazing project for WA Museum Boola Bardip. It’s the Oobardjidama foulkesi (Broome sauropod) - a real life-size dinosaur sculpture, 16 meters long, created with help of modern technologies, 3D-printing and a huge amount of manual work.
I was responsible for the design and modeling of the original 3D-prototype.
Scientific and technical advisors: Dr Mikael Siversson, Dr Steven Salisbury and Daniel Schoknecht

P.S. I’m going to post other models from this project very soon. There were many cool creatures! :)
Dr Mikael Siversson explains how the huge life-size sauropod model was created.
