Mini-me

Mini-me: A company in Texas, U.S., is creating replica models of customers using pioneering 3D printing techniques
 
 models are between 6 to 15 inches tall

 
 
After surrounding the subject in a dome of 60 to 80 DSLR cameras, printing specialists then trigger the cameras simultaneously, creating a complete 360 degree image
 
 
Using a 'sandstone printing method' the printer lays down a fine layer of gypsum powder, also known as calcium sulphate, to which a binding agent and dye is added.
This process is then repeated thousands of times to construct the lifelike models.
