When you say 3D digital model, people think of something like a molded plastic toy, just on your computer. When artist Mieke Roth does a 3D model of an animal, she means the whole animal. She models it inside and out.
Artist Mieke Roth created a 3D model of an octopus and its internal organs. Now she is working on a 3D model of a Nile crocodile with the assistance of researcher John Hutchinson. To help fund the project, Mieke has an IndieGoGo fundraiser running through the end of tomorrow (15 March 2013, 11:59PM PT).
It’s like being in an episode of Inside Nature’s Giants, but without all the mess and smell (for us, it’s pretty messy & smelly for Mieke).
