3D figurines of people are exact mini replicas created through scanning and layer-by-layer printing on a 3D printer. The length of these figurines typically ranges from 15 to 50 centimeters. The figurines were made by 3D scanning individuals and printing reduced replicas of them in plaster. The final model is converted into a file for printing the human figurine on a 3D printer, such as the ProJet 660Pro and ProJet 860Pro from 3D Systems, which operate on the Color Jet Printing (CJP) technology, based on layer-wise binding and coloring of composite powder made of gypsum or plastic.
These 3D figures are used as gifts, souvenirs, or samples.
