Words Matter Art Pieces by Trevor Neal

I was tasked with assisting Artist Mark Yurkiw in creating 3D scans of two of his art pieces, Yearning to Breathe Free, and Re-Birth of a Nation. The scans were modified to create miniatures of the art pieces to raise funding for the @#1 Main St. Galley Inc. a 501c3 non-profit raising awareness for local artist to local people. Yearning to Breathe Free will be sold at fundraisers and venues for the homeless as thank you gifts at certain donor amounts. Re-Birth of a Nation will be sold for fund raising events for children’s cancer research. I took the high-resolution scans using the Creaform Go!SCAN Spark 3D Scanner and modified the raw scans in Creaform’s VXelements program. For other modifications, I used Microsoft 3D builder, for example, the spokes on the Statue were too thin, so I used 3D builder to extrude the spokes. Originally, I 3D printed the prototype models on our Prusa MK3S and Ultimaker S5 printers, once I saw the quality of the prints, I determined that we should use SLA printing for a higher, more detailed resolution. We used the Formlabs 3+ and the Elegoo Mars 2 Pro for these demo prints.
