Zusammenfassung:	Methods of how to build a 3D model with both surface features and internal structures are disclosed. 3D image data in a hybrid data format or other suitable data formats are first received as input and then broken down into layers of 2D data. The layers of 2D data hold various attribute information about the model, such as colors, shapes, durometer hardness, etc. The layers of data are printed on printing sheets that are specially formulated. Selected materials are also deposited on printed sheets as dictated by the 2D data. Each printed sheet is cut along the shape boundaries either before or after it has been bound to previously printed sheets. Finished sheets are then bound and processed to generate a 3D model with rich details.
