The point about these 3D-Scans is, that i had to pass this through "Instant Meshes" first before there was a result that can more easily be rendered. If you do not yet have "Instant meshes" get it here free: Instant Meshes - Github
It will remesh too large topologies and also produce optimized meshes if you select it to do so.
So here is the Dragon in the unique Luxrender Metall-Style. As it is remeshed its not exactly the original 3D-Scan.
The Blend-File still has over 140 MB.
@Dade: It would be possible to give you such as Example Scenes here for the Luxrender-Site, however they are very large.
You can just change the materials to show Luxrender effects.
