Paul McCartney encourages fans to print him in 3D

The 72-year-old wants fans to print off a 3D version of himself

Published 18th Mar 2015

Paul McCartney has offered fans the unique chance print their own 3D version of him.

The former Beatles star was scanned in 3D at the end of 2014 for his innovative ‘Hope For The Future’ music video.

He has now released a special downloadable file on his personal website, making it possible for anyone with access to a 3D printer to print him out!

The singer took to Facebook to show fans a time-lapse video of the printing process.

Check out the clip below:

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));.

His track ‘Hope For The Future’ was written and recorded for first-person shoot ‘em up ‘Destiny’, which has been named the most successful video game in history.

Meanwhile, following his recent success with Rihanna’s smash hit ‘FourFiveSeconds’, the 72-year-old announced a European leg of his world tour which starts on 23rd May in London’s O2 Arena and also takes in a Birmingham date and a completely sold-out Liverpool show.

The 'Out There' world tour, which has attracted almost two million fans so far, features music from his back-catalogue including songs as a solo artist, as a member of Wings and as a member of The Beatles.
