Create and print your own 3D-Selfie [TUTORIAL]

Hello Everyone,

I've created a Tutorial on how to easily create a 3D-Selfie of yourself.

3D printing is the trend of the last years. At least since president Obama got himself portrayed in three dimensional space by a Smithsonian-led team of 3D-digital-imaging specialists, Autodesk and 3D Systems, in collaboration with the University of Southern California’s Institute for Creative Technologies. It took two different technologically sophisticated 3D documentation processes to generate the data needed to create this portrait. They used 50 custom-made LED lights, eight high-resolution sports photography cameras, six wide angle cameras and handheld 3D scanners to capture every nook, cranny and worry line on Obama's head.

In this tutorial I will show you how to create a 3D-Portrait of your head using only a smartphone (or DSLR) and your computer. A 3D-Printer is not necessarily needed! The process consits of three basic steps: Catch, Make & Print

Enjoy!

PS: If anyone has ideas on improving the process, i'd appreciate it. I know there is better ways, but consider this as a beginner tutorial
