Pablo — I use photogrammetry to create models from skulls and I’d be happy to 
share my workflow if you want to experiment with it.  It works really well in 
most cases. I’ve been curious about about the Spider scanner, so would love to 
hear about your experiences with that.  Feel free to drop me a line at 
wrob...@msu.edu <mailto:wrob...@msu.edu>.
