[Can I print human portraits using Ultimaker S5 with just photos?]

Thanks for your responses.

 

@kmanstudios I was told that the example model I have attached was printed with an Ultimaker 3d printer. That made me curious to understand how it was made from an image. As per earlier comment about color, I guess after printing, they might have hand painted the miniature.

 

At the point, the main question I think is the way to get a 3D model out of an image. I believe once a 3D model is available, printing it in Ultimaker might not be a huge challenge.

 

I'll also review 3d inkjet printers and see if they work for me..

 

Thanks,

[Can I print human portraits using Ultimaker S5 with just photos?]

Hi All,

 

I'm a newbie here. Planning to buy Ultimaker S5 and have a question before I can purchase. 

 

I'm mainly buying this to print human portraits/miniatures using just photos only and will not be able to perform any scanning physically. It will be just using digital photos. Is this possible at all? Please find attached a sample image of 3d printed miniature. I'm looking to produce a similar output.

 

Has anyone done this before and achieved success. Any suggestions or help will be really appreciated.

 

Thanks so much! 

 

Kind regards,
