3D printing has become an incredibly powerful tool to customize one-off products for differing applications. This project was based on using this technology to design a customized prosthetic leg for a specific user- a young, urban, male athlete. Nike was chosen as an appropriate brand to bring form to the leg. It also required familiarizing oneself with the emotional, medical, lifestyle, and physical changes the user would encounter. Designer: Colin Matsco

Reddit user captaincripple lost his leg in a motorcycle accident and has since had a custom-painted prosthetic made. This is it. It looks half-human, half-robotic, 100% something that would freak me out if I saw it fall off.

Tim Beck painted these prosthetic legs for a client.

Skinz-N-Hydez made this 13-14 pound leg that looks prosthetic but is actually only a shell. He has finished the job and has added one more creative piece of art to his gallery, which is already full of his earlier works.
