# 3D printed HP Lovecraft bust

July 24, 2009

Heinrich Stiller, [Heiner2 on Shapeways](/content/hisdesign?user_id=21783/index.html), has made a great [HP Lovecraft](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._P._Lovecraft) bust. He has two versions a [12 CM](/content/model/34992/h__p__lovecraft_bust.html) ($17) one and a [15CM one](/content/model/34993/h__p__lovecraft_portrait_bust.html) ($33). I think he really captures the famous horror writer well, but you can judge for yourself by comparing the 3D printed bust with [pictures of HP Lovecraft here](http://images.google.com/images?q=HP%20lovecraft&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:nl:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi).

A 3D printed bust of a horror writer who died in 1937. These are uses of the technology that I don’t think anyone could have come up with. In addition to Heinrich’s bust we also have more HP Lovecraft things on Shapeways.

Kristoffer Bakken, [Bakkendance](/content/mydesign?user_id=733/index.html) on Shapeways, has a [Cthulhu Head](/content/model/1104/cthulhu_head.html), a [Cthulhu statue](/content/model/2037/cthulhu_statue.html) and a [Cthulhu statue with wings](/content/model/2508/cthulhu_statue_w__wings_v3.html) on Shapeways. If we manage to find more Lovecraft enthusiasts who are 3D modelers we will be well on our way to reinforcing our market dominance in 3D printed horror writer memorabilia.
