I've seen quite a few really nice looking scans, so I don't know what the factor is here, causing some people to have some awesome scans, while other have terrible scans. Here is one I saw on Thingiverse that looks pretty good.

Wince - I feel real comfortable is saying I don't believe that scan came from a MakerBot Digitizer! It appears to be one from a commercial scanner of much higher resolutiion. But believe me, I would LOVE to be wrong! I cannot get any thing anywhere close to that kind of detail. Russ

Actually according to the thingiverse post, this was done with a Digitizer. I only wish I could find the post now. I forget what it was titled.
