sjamesparsonsjr Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 I have a model thats 1/32 to scale can I would really like it twice as big. Is there an online company that will 3D scan my parts and print me a bigger model kit? Thanks
jeffs396 Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 The VW pickup? Yes I'm sure it could be done, with enough $$$
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Not really. Yes, for enough $$ you could get a high-res scan and a set of high-res parts printed, but the cost would be prohibitive. The accuracy you would need isn't readily available to the small-time consumer yet, though it does exist in industry.
blunc Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 another thing that would probably get mentioned by any company that has the capability to scan and reproduce your small scale kit is that any/all discrepancies and/or errors present in the small scale kit will be magnified by the amount you want it scaled up. gaps will be huge unless corrected, if a part looks like a blob now it will just look like a bigger blob later. without magic, it won't turn into a well detailed bigger version...much as we would like it to.
