She's a 3D print of my short film's first version of Chell from Portal 2. The new version, still being rigged, is a bit different.

About 1/7 scale, based on a 5'10" height for Chell. If Chell's more like 5'7", a bit closer to 1/6.

"how big is it" as in, how big is the actual model in inches, not how big is the scale of the model.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
5 1/8 inches from the floor to the upraised hand.
7 3/8 inches from her right knee to her left foot (both grounded).
6 9/16 inches from the tip of her right middle finger (grounded) to to back of her right heel (raised).
According to the site that printed her: 6.3" W, 5.1" D, 7.2" H (couldn't say precisely what direction they're measuring)
Metric from the same site: 16cm W, 12.98cm D, 18.34cm H
Print Volume: 90.62 cubic cm
That's all I can come up with for now, except to say that I can just fit her on my open hand. Her grounded hand sits on my outstretched thumb tip; her rear foot barely rests on the opposite edge of my palm; her knee stops just short of my wrist, and her left toe touches the tip of my middle finger.

Well this was a rough mockup in their default material, so with shipping it ran about $135. The smoother, more detailed materials run a lot higher.

Might I asked the process about getting/making this?

Sent the .obj to Shapeways.com, they took care of it

>.>
<.<
What is an .obj? What software does it go with?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Short for Object, and it's kind of a non-specific file type that's often used to move things between software packages.

Thank you! Also, how expensive?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
With shipping it was 135, but they also print in materials that come out smoother and in higher detail, for more money per cubic cm.

YEA CAKE!
