I am rapid prototyping concrete models using Ron Rael's hijacked starch printer.
It's stronger than starch and achieves an identical resolution.
One potential drawback is that it's extremely water soluble, which means I could have a lot more fun with melting these things.... after the presentation.

That's a beautiful model! Look forward to seeing what the water does to it!
Is it possible to make one out of clay and put it in a kiln?
thanks Chris!
can't put this one in a kiln, but Ron is printing mud and firing it. you should check out the work he's doing here: Digital Ceramics
Very neat! (And much easier than doing it the old-fashioned way, I'm sure)
