One Students Incredibly Scary 3D Printed Mask of Himself

[Brian_Krassenstein]

3D printing has been used to create some truly inventive masks, and now a student from the University of Texas at Austin has produced on that looks like nothing we've seen before. Joshua Orsburn "couldn't leave school without giving 3D printing a chance," and he took a class assignment as an opportunity to design a mask. Color scans of his own face, meshed together in Rhino3D, were assembled together in a particularly unsettling creation. The mask took about 11 hours to print on a gypsum 3D printer, and after Orsburn added acrylic paint and graphite, then dipped it in resin, the final product is...well, frightening.
