I need help for making a 3d kidney and lungs for a school project. I am hoping to use this to show the excretory system and using animations to show how it works.

Since Blender supports the STL format used by 3D printers, this is just a matter of modeling the structure, exporting it in STL and printing it out.

Note: trafficking in human organs is prohibited by law in many jurisidictions.

Hi Stiv!

you can find the piece with only the internal organs from BodyParts 3D.
There should also be a kidney inside.

Unfortunately I'm not sure the link still works, as it asks for registration. Looks like the rules for 4shared have changed.
