For my wife's birthday, I commissioned a bust of former US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg by 3D sculptor dev_3d. I'm releasing it now free for anybody to print who would like a reminder of a woman who was not just a champion of women's rights, but also of the right to free artistic expression. Feel free to post any pictures of your prints on Instagram under #RBG3D. I doubt it'll blow up, but I know I'll be following the tag, so you'll get a like from me if you share!
Sorry for the mess in the photos. I am... not an organized person.
The original is scaled to 150mm height, which is a little too large for my Prusa SL1, so I scaled it down to about 135mm. This could concievably be printed on an FDM printer, but the glasses are tricky. I had no problems printing on my SLA printer, but after curing, I accidentally broke off one side of the glasses getting it out of my UV light box, hence the creative shooting angle I used.
Also, yes, I printed her backwards. If you print this yourself and are at all competent, please feel free to share better photos.

Thank you so much for sharing this! My sister has been hounding me about printing RBG but there just hasn’t been a good model until now! Printed on Elegoo Mars 2 Pro and primed gray.
