Will 3D printing replace the traditional wax museum in the past?

Theoretically, it will! Recently, I also paid more attention to 3D printing technology, and specially checked how the wax figures in the wax museum were made. The main material for making wax figures is beeswax, and each wax figure costs nearly 6,543.8+0,000 yuan, and it usually takes 3-6 months from the preliminary preparation to the final sample. With 3D printing technology, you can print wax figures with 3D printer only by full-body scanning and 3D modeling. The cost is only one tenth of the wax figure, and the maximum time is about 1 month.

In China, the Wax Museum can go to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, while in the 3D Portrait Museum, there are statues of shanghai new world products to experience. I have been to these two places recently. Personally, from the perspective of low cost or fine restoration, 3D printing is better than traditional wax figures, and ordinary people can afford it.
