This week’s selection is Eric van Straaten’s “Humming” Statuette. 
 
With the simple description, “Girl holding a hummingbird”, van Straaten’s statuette clearly demonstrates the power of color 3D printing. Polychemy says:  
 
Eric van Straaten is a Hyper Surreal artist and a noteable 3D Print artist and sculptor. His work has been featured in high-end art fairs around the world.Only a few specialize in 3D Printing in color and there is no artist who pushes the boundaries of colorized 3D-prints as far as Eric van Straaten does.
 
van Straaten’s work includes a large number of similarly beautiful sculptures, many of which can be viewed on his website. If you want to purchase a 15cm (6 inch) tall print of “Humming”, you may do so at Polychemy at a cost of USD$2,500.

Kerry Stevenson, aka "General Fabb" has written over 8,000 stories on 3D printing at Fabbaloo since he launched the venture in 2007, with an intention to promote and grow the incredible technology of 3D printing across the world. So far, it seems to be working!
