About ScanVinci Project

Welcome to ScanVinci, where we’re redefining the way you connect with art. Sculptures have long adorned spaces, adding a touch of beauty and character. At ScanVinci, we’re taking it a step further. Imagine personalized sculptures that go beyond mere decoration—they capture the essence of people you know and love, including yourself. Thanks to cutting-edge technology, we’re turning the familiar into the extraordinary. Transform your spaces with sculptures that aren’t just aesthetically pleasing but also deeply personal, celebrating the faces and relationships that matter most.

In the past, people had artists sculpt their images for various reasons—whether they were forward-thinkers or just a bit self-absorbed. The outcome? Their images, sculpted and protected from the march of time, last long after they’re gone. Today, with endless ways to capture our personalities through ever-changing media trends, ScanVinci steps in. We don’t ignore the past; we embrace it while moving into the future. Our goal is to create sculptures that last beyond the fast-changing trends, offering a timeless connection between individuals and the art that immortalizes them.

Sculpted Elegance

Our advanced scanning technology allows us to conduct multiple scans within minutes. This approach ensures that we capture the pose that best reflects the character of the individual. Similar to photography, where the perfect shot emerges from many, our process guarantees a portrayal that encapsulates the true essence and elegance of each subject.

Classic Finishes

Meet Gustav, our sample generic head, showcasing the exquisite range of classic finishes we offer – from shades of bronze to elegant marble. Explore the art of surface finishing: statues with minimal weathering boast a smoother touch, while those showcasing significant wear carry a subtle surface texture, adding depth and character to each unique piece.

Aging Mastery

The picture above is a real sample showcasing the warm bronze finish on the left and the touch of time on the right. Gustav, undergoes a transformation, aging gracefully before your eyes. Fortunately, Gustav is not subject to the passage of time, existing within the ScanVinci time capsule this technique makes him look like he has been around for quite some time.

Creation Process

3D Scanning: Capturing Your Essence

We start by carefully scanning you in 3D, capturing your unique essence. It’s not just a quick snapshot; we take our time to study your character and charm. Get ready to shine as we help you present your best self—choosing the right attire, perfecting details, and striking the ideal pose. There’s no rush; we believe in investing the time needed to make each shot a masterpiece. Our goal is perfection, and we take the necessary moments to capture the details that shape a creation lasting for eternity. Your patience and our precision come together, laying the foundation for a timeless sculpture that truly embodies you.

3D Printing with Artist Touch

At ScanVinci, your safety is our top priority. We use class 1 infrared scanners that are 100% safe for scanning humans, ensuring the well-being of our clients. However, this commitment to safety does come with some scanner limitations. To overcome these limitations and elevate the quality of the 3D image, we use the scanned data as a foundation for artist creation. The 3D image is carefully reshaped, drawing inspiration from the craftsmanship of the old masters. This not only addresses the scanner limitations but also provides the artistic finesse needed for a refined and exceptional 3D printing outcome.

Fine Art Finale

After your 3D image becomes a reality through the printer, we take the next step. Each piece is then enveloped in real metal, not just for appearance but to offer an authentic feel, reminiscent of classic statues. Our creations undergo a unique metamorphosis through the application of specialty patinas. Unlike conventional paint, these patinas induce real oxidation, but on steroids. This accelerated process takes days, not years, to achieve the desired result. The outcome is a masterpiece that not only looks and feels like an ancient sculpture but also carries the nuanced beauty of time’s passage.
