Full color 3D print student contest

Full Color 3D Print Student Competition
Calling all Students
Want to test your 3D modeling skills, have your object 3D printed in full color by Shapeways and win $100 worth of 3D printing?

The 2010 Shapeways Full Color 3D Print Student Contest is looking for the most creative and innovative model that can be 3D printed in full color. If you are an animation student you could 3D print your lead character, if you are an industrial design student you could 3D print your next prototype, if you are a medical student you could 3D print a dissected toe, the possibilities are open to you.

Simply upload your full color model to Shapeways by the 31st of May with the tag “Student Contest” and you will be in the running to win.

The five best models will be printed for free by Shapeways and sent to your door.
The winning design will also receive $100 worth of Shapeways 3D printing services.
