Original post In this post, I would like to briefly show how a vessel can be reconstructed into a complete…Continue readingPottery reconstruction with Blender 3D
Not all 3D scans are the same. Depending on the settings selected and the time and computing capacity available, the results of an object capture can vary greatly. It is not necessarily necessary to collect more base material, in the case of photogrammetry raw images, in order to achieve a greatly improved model quality. In…Continue readingFossil fish and the secret of 3D scan quality

During my studies at the Freie Universität I spent much time with the so-called Hercules clubs. The aim was to write a paper about roman club amulets and their maybe germanic bone/antler derivatives. This is now the beginning of a series of articles about amulets and the possibilities of visualizing single finds as well as…Continue readingSHORT Post – 3D Hercules club amulet
tl;dr: Reprinting fragmented objects can open various great possibilities for science, education, and museums. Especially the details of modern full-color printer could create very realistic looking replicas without endangering the fragile originals. The following 3D printed archaeological find, was made possible through Formwerk3D. Pottery finds from settlements Ceramic objects from settlements are normally very fragmented.…Continue readingPottery reconstruction – 3D printing
