A new proposal for 3D printers, the Japanese Omote 3D company, with a new evolutionary step in the photograph. It finished the intangibles 3D images on a monitor. The creatives from Omotesando propose, in Shibuya, Tokyo, a sculpture at people. Halfway between fetish - kitsch or the implementation of a dystopia, if you approach Omote 3D, in Tokyo, in a few weeks they will send you home your own "minime".

In OMOTE 3D SHASHIN KAN, you can create and purchase a miniature figurine of yourself. There are 3 steps involved in the process.

1) They ask each customer to come to the store and have themselves scanned with a 3D scanner. After they will need to ask them to stay in a pose for maximum 15 min. during this process.
2) A 3D model will be created, based on the scanned data. The models' details, such as the hair and the color of their clothes, will be carefully modified.
3) From the finished 3D model, a miniature figurine will be printed using a 3D color printer.

All figures are made from plaster. It takes about 1 months~2 months to be made after shooting. The customer can choose shipping or pick up figure after made.
