The Most Expensive 3D Model?

The folks at Blossom posted several articles recently detailing their work to design and produce a rather unusual 3D object. It's a small-scale model of a strange and complex sculpture, as you can see in the rendering pictured here.

Evidently the shape of the object baffled the 3D printers as it had a double-layered shell with limited connectivity. Ingenuious redesign produced the necessary internal supports and the object was actually printed.
