still waiting for the mirage iic

still waiting for the mirage iic

I hope to be able to bring what I have pending, the university undoubtedly consumes a lot of my time

 

[Henry5812]

*I'll be impatient bro, definitely.

Basically I only need the torso to have my mirage suit, somehow I manage to make the other pieces, some have end up alright but others end up a little weird but I don't want to mess up the torso, I repeat, I'll be waiting anxiously for your work but, do your best in the university.

I need those Mirage files, My Banana spartan depends on them!

 

[NobleofDeath16]

10/10 would recommend MNKr if you need any help unfolding these projects, he has been our resident unfolder on the forum for years. zealotops alongside ODCA

 

[zealotops]

A new update: Esparza's armor had a re unfold and a new version with improved textures and with more details of the model added, such as his goggles and ballistic vest

 

[zealotops]

Now the MKV are ready

 

[zealotops]

The Mirage archives are now available

Any news on the mk4 armor im holding on to hope

I am performing a polygon reduction to facilitate unfolding, I also changed the textures to ones that preserve the metal pieces in the previous texture did not appear

 

[Henry5812]

will you make the Fred`s chest attachment for the mk VII ?

 

[zealotops]

will you make the Fred`s chest attachment for the mk VII ?View attachment 358150

Of course it is, although it is very likely that I will dedicate another section in the forum that is not here, as with the MKV Zeta helmet

Hey man I am pretty sure it was your post on Facebook with the free Mirage foam template I commented on a few weeks back, if you have some time, can I pick your brain on some things like how exactly to assemble the pieces for example the mirage after its been cut out and a few questions relating to getting the STL models from STL to a usable Pepakura foam export? For some reason, I just can't wrap my head around turning the cutout foam into the "functional" armor piece. For example, I started with the mirage forearms. I thought maybe because the mirage has less detail to it, I could envision it to assemble it better with something a tad more intricate, so I tried converting the Mark IV forearms from GalacticArmory's files into a foam template, but I always end up with a jumbled mess of triangles across several pages in pepakura like I had mentioned struggling with in the past on FB and all the guides i've found online have not been any help getting past this as they all use models that seem to be pre "simplified" for pepakura, one of the guides I had found used a celestial nighthawk helmet from destiny as their example and prepped it in blender first but when I tried it nothing seemed to work in the current version of blender in the same manner as it did in their tutorial so I could not just follow along and shifted to trying to simplify the stl using 3D builder before throwing it into pepakura which did work better but lead to either a mess of connected triangles still just significantly less or the same but even less and pieces missing that were probably lost during the simplifying process from over simplifying. At this point, I think I've resigned myself to the fact I will have to use a template someone else already made, which isn't the end of the world, but making my own is a skill I will probably need in the future, and I haven't been able to find a pre-made foam template for the standard Mark IV identical to the one I started 3D Printing from GA. In your experience, do you have any wisdom you can impart to help me with this? (or can you point me to where I should make a forum post asking? I am having a hard time figuring out where exactly such a post belongs and I do not want to put it in the wrong place and be a bother)

The programs I use to make templates for EVA foam are a mix between Metasequoia and Blender

And to exemplify a process that if I do I will use the stl of the ODST viewer that is in the forum armory


And to adapt an STL model what I would do is import the STL model to Blender and pass it to OBJ to work on it in MetaSeqoia since it leaves the files almost directly for use in Pepakura

Metasequoia has tools that allow you to simplify the models, although if you can apply this process in Blender much better

The mesh of the STL is usually very heavy for Metasequoia due to the number of polygons it has, preventing them from loading well and in the unfold, releasing many triangles that are very tedious to join

and if it is about reducing the mesh, it leaves a disaster of polygons in the model

One of the advantages of MetaSequoia is that it allows you to work on an existing mesh by being able to superimpose new faces on a high-poly object (just make sure to create the new faces on a new object)

Once you have a mesh that you like the way it looks and is simple, you can apply a mirror effect to it and with the edit tools modify the mesh to join the mirror object with the normal one

Once you have the mesh like this you can add or remove axes with the Edge tool (W)

in this way being able to add details that the model has in high polygonage

With the letter E on the keyboard, you can highlight those same details

Once you have a result that you like you can do the other side of the mesh by hitting SEL OBJ, selected, mirror and select the axis that fits best

Once you have the object mesh complete, I do recommend joining edges by hitting Object, Join Closed Vertices, and setting the value to one that does not reduce the polygons

And so you would get a model comfortable enough to work in pepakura, it is a bit tedious and time-consuming to make them since they do not always come out the first time, but it assures you that it is possible to work it in EVA foam and even in the papercraft mode

I saw that manual conversion trick from STL to EVA rubber template in this video (which does it directly in Blender)

Another very easy way is to look for the model in the form of a Game Asset since it has a reduced mesh and at the same time it already has the same separate ones, which is usually what I do

Thanks soooo much man! I will give it a try using Metasequoia to simplify it!

Me encantan tus diseños, estoy a punto de acabar un casco de odst tuyo y queria saber si vas a sacar la armadura de Dutch de Alpha 9 de Halo 3 ODST ya que la vi en un post de facebook

Tengo una version adaptada de archivos de infinite pero yo creo que trabajare aparte los archivos para hacerlo compatible con el set original del juego

PD: me encantaría ver el casco cuando esté finalizado

Tengo 15 años y este es el pirmer casco que e hecho (lo hize con fomi juntando 3 para lograr 6 mm de grosor por que no tengo goma eva) Creo que le pasare un barniz para que no se dañe la pintura y le pondre un visor sencillo

se ve muy bien, es impresionante para tu primer trabajo, recuerdo que cuando empecé aplique la misma técnica, para el visor pudieras usar una pieza redonda de botella transparente
