The Scrappies - A series of originally designed small sculptures in scrap metal-look.

 

The body parts of the Scrappies are inspired by everything that can be found in a scrapyard: Old bolts and nuts, rusty coils, pipes, parts of ball bearings, tin cans, and more.

The figurines are worked out in minute detail, including "rust holes" and traces of an alleged "welding". The scrap metal look gives the characters their own special, irresistible charm.

 

Height (with stand): 16 cm

 

The figurines are created in the 3DP process (three-dimensional printing) from steel and bronze, from an aluminium-polyamide composite or from a gypsum-based, full-colored composite.

 


 

Products from this series are available as small, medium and large sized figurines; in white, black, colored, in steel, bronze and gold.

The figurines, while still produced by Shapeways, are not available directly through Shapeways, but you can still get one! To locate the nearest store for you, to order one or to enquire about wholesale possibilities, please send an e-mail to info@trompe.nl.

This model is very cool! Looks like a new effect! Five stars!
I have removed the comment from Sublime_2010 since it was using inappropriate wording. We do not mind the open discussion but please keep it civilized. Thank you.
First of all @Sublime_2010 let's not get off going in the wrong direction by making a generalization. There are plenty of Americans who are anti this sort of thing and copyright douchbagery is not the exclusive domain of companies/individuals in the US.

Now on to the matter at hand. I'm going to reserve final judgement until all the facts emerge from the possible poopstorm. But as I understand things this falls verymuch under the category of 'dude-not-cool'. This is exactly the kind of unfortunately inevitable thing that some of us who are conscious about the legal realities were dreading about this wonderful thing we call 3D printing.

Before I really get off on a rant i will just say that this is exactly the sort of nonsense we want avoid while things are still verymuch in their infancy.

And for everyone who is wondering what his is all about this may help.
