Josiah Grennell also made a chrome animation of this drawing:

We have been casting some 3D prints at Xerocraft hackerspace --
Sand cast of a 3D printed portrait
by Alison Aragon
Also at the hackerspace we 3D printed out Eric's sculpture on the Ultimaker, then sent it to a commercial company to cast it in bronze, using the "lost PLA" process.
The smaller bronze beside original scanned sculpture:
If we had 3D printed thicker walls, the PLA plastic might not have caved in when vacuuming the investment around the figure, and we would have made a good casting without the holes:

I also 3D bronze printed a clay sketch sculpture by Alison Aragon. I had the piece 3D scanned at Metalphyic in Tucson, and uploaded that file to iMaterialise, for them to print at 4 inches high:
Metalphysic scanned the broken leg separately, and "glued" it back on with software:

A piece from my first digital 3D sculpture came out of the kiln recently:
