3D printing museum art replicas from @kylewilliamdesign
The creator explains their discovery that museums upload 3D scans of their artifacts, then showcases several replicas they have 3D printed. They show the process from the digital model to the finished object for pieces like the Discobolus of Myron, Degas' Little Dancer (for which they also sew a custom outfit), and the Lewis Chessmen, before sharing where to find these 3D scans online.

Transcript excerpt
I found out museums upload three d scans of their artifacts and sculptures, and now I can't stop three d printing them. Here are a few of my favorites so far. I did the Discobolus of Myron, the iconic Greek sculpture carved around April. I even found more modern models like Degas' little dancer, and because I haven't sewed anything in forever, I made her a tiny outfit to stay true to Degas' mixed media approach. I also printed a Lewis chessman for the chess table I made. It's a famous set of twelfth to thirteenth century chess pieces carved from walrus ivory and whale tooth. I found all these scans from museums like the Smithsonian, and searching scan the world.
