As part of donating to the new remake of TEF, I was able to earn the perk for having a model of Walter made in 3d and printed out as a figurine. Well, I thought I'd share the result as I received my delivery today:
I asked for the smaller details such as the spikes on the horns and the goatee, but I'm really happy with how it appears overall. I also had the frog added in and the tree stump at the back.

Impressive, what's texture
@Uitleger The model I picked
The model I picked out has a sandstone texture ("a coarse finish and a delicate feel") but I believe the actual material is a type of plastic.
According to the Shapeways website:
"Models are created by printing binder material and colored ink layer-by-layer into a bed of gypsum-based powder. After printing, the models are finished with a cyanoacrylate (super glue) sealant to ensure durability and vivid colors. The final product is a hard, brittle material that works great for figurines and visual models, but isn't well suited to functional parts or daily handing. Models should be handled carefully, and not exposed to water as it will cause fading."
I'll throw up some extra shots soon.
