Jessica, I saw some of you samples and they are quite good.  How was the
skull done? laser, photo, human 3d modeler?
Have you looked into the Structure scanner for doing simple objects or even
just for insurance?  We use it on TV and movies for the less complex and in
some cases the more complex when there is no other option.  It takes some
practice but the time savings over normal photogrammetry is significant.
There are some other similar technologies coming to market soon I hope, but
until then the structure seems to be the one that works best and the cost
is not horrible.   I think about this stuff as I was part of the crew that
watched an actor unknowingly(he felt SO BAD) destroy an artifact that could
have been a scan and 3d print these days and not risk the artifact.
