Nope, both of those are different from the scanned data. I can upload some demonstration images if people are interested.

Edit: render from artist's data, with crevice circled: https://www.dropbox.com/s/klu2yhupawg7bqf/right%20ear%20clos...

compare with right ear from first image from https://www.ancientsculpturegallery.com/egyptian-queen-nefer...

Regarding the first link, the smaller stone statue is completely different, note that the left ear is complete as opposed to the real thing.

Isn't it more likely that they scanned one of these (in the comfort of their own home/studio)? http://forum.david-3d.com/viewtopic.php?p=32781 (edit:ignore the scanning method outlined here, low resolution, focus on the source statue)

In another article, a scanning professional mentioned a laser scan of that same bust was created in 2000/2001 http://3dprintingindustry.com/2016/02/26/3d-scanned-nefertit...

PS The statue in link 1 does show the ear crevice.

Crop from link [1] to save you the click: http://i.imgur.com/oUiAl24.png

That does seem quite plausible, more plausible than a hack/leak of the museum's data itself IMO.

They mention that as a possibility in the article.
