Paul

i want to create a 3d model of a guitar. what ways are there to help me create it with the software i have, as in importing photo files or a scanning the guitar itself?

Answer
if you meant to design 3D guitar on computer, you could simple collect measurements and re draw image in 3D editor like Sketchup

could be use to take photos and place visually into rendered object of guitar body

if you meant to actually make model as life size copy,
that would require laser scanner and printer

How to Print 3d Photos taken with a 3D camera, via printer?

Robert

So I am wondering how can I print 3d photos taken with a 3d camera ... do I need a special printer I current have the First Looks - HP OfficeJet 150 Mobile All-in-One Printer and Scanner, is this capable of printing 3d photos?

Answer
No normal printer supports this. By 3D i am assuming you need a hologram print out. Something like this: http://www.alibaba.com/showroom/hologram-printer.html

Technology changes quickly.. who knows, maybe 2020 we will now have a personal 3d printer which prints a sculpture of what was taken on a 4d (not 3d) camera =)
