3D Sculpture Scanning Reinforces Massive Russian War Memorial

3D Sculpture Scanning Reinforces Massive Russian War Memorial

by Art

3D sculpture scanning and printing perfected the design of a twenty-five-meter-tall bronze statue commemorating the 2.3 million dead and wounded soldiers lost in the Battles of Rzhev, which took place between January 1942 and March 1943. The sculptor, Andrey Korobtsov, and his architect partner, Konstantin Fomin, enlisted Thor3D’s scanning technology, which allowed the engineering team to work with him to replicate a scale model for wind tunnel testing using 3D printing. The sculpture stands in place as of March 31, 2020.
