Is this the process that was called photo-lithography?

A few years ago a model engine club had an exhibit and demonstration at the Blackhawk Museum of their small running gasoline engines. There were straight-4s, V-8s L-head and OHV, and even an OHC V-12. Among the exhibitions were the methods the model makers used to build their engines. Most were using conventionally fabricated molds to cast the blocks. One guy was using this 3-D printing or photo lithography process to make his molds. His engine blocks, heads, and other parts were much more detailed than those done in the conventional way. His process used a cut paper process.
