3D Printing Rod Puppet for film

I was a bit reluctant to blog this since I did it but it is pretty cool and as far as I can tell a first.

This rod puppet for a film was completely 3d printed and the parts were used directly from the printer.

It was first blogged here http://www.creativetools.se/produktnyheter/271-z-corporation-3d-skrivare/14972-3d-utskriven-kakerlacka-for-filmen-josephine-and-the-roach.html

which makes me a bit of a sad blogger when someone scoops my own story. But I appreciate the nod.

Here is the design I made completely in zbrush.

Here is the pic of the final puppet on set.
