Using Makers Empire students can design prints in full-colour, and customise colours to suit their designs. However, most 3D printers used in schools or 3D printing services used by schools can only manufacture 3D prints in one or two-colours. These 3D prints can then be left as they are or further painted or drawn on with other colours as desired.
Until recently, full-colour 3D printing was prohibitively expensive, even if you had access to a machine that could print 3D designs in full-colour. But recent technological advancements mean that full-colour prints are more reasonably priced. So Makers Empire is happy to introduce our new full-colour 3D printing service called MakeShop. Teachers and students can order full-colour 3D prints of their Makers Empire designs via Makers Empire and have the finished product delivered directly to their school or home.
MakeShop’s full-colour, high quality 3D prints of 3D designs made with Makers Empire can be used to both deepen student engagement and learning, and to create wonderful mementos, awards, trophies and gifts.
