HP 3D Print Design Competition

Contest from HP:  Color is opening up a world of new possibilities for 3D printing. It’s helping surgeons create models to prepare for surgery, allowing manufacturers to develop better parts, and enabling customization not previously possible.

How would you use color to elevate 3D printing? Show us by submitting your color design to our competition for a chance to win an HP ZBook 15 G5 Mobile Workstation.
