Following up on the story we previously posted regarding the scanning of the South lion at the Art Institute of Chicago named “ In an Attitude of Defiance” we have more photos from the site of the shoot and Met-L-Flo that show the progression of the project.
Exact Metrology did the 3D Scanning and Metal-L-Flo Inc. created the 300 3D Printed models of the miniature lions which will ultimately be handed out at FABTECH 2015. Exact Metrology, Met-L-Flo and The Art Institute are all “Supporters” of FABTECH.
Check out the slide show for a glimpse of what was billed by FABTECH as “The Art of Metal Manufacturing: 3D Scanning and Printing of the Historic Art Institute Lion by Edward L. Kemeys”.
