I just hope dub can unfold so it isn't too hard to do without robotic hands lol.

lol you kidding? Dubean is pro at unfolds.

 

[ironerd]

LOL no doubt he is. I love his stuff.



But sometimes those thing little edge pieces suck.



YOu know the pieces where they are roughly 1/16" wide.. those are hard to cut out and then fold the tabs without ripping the piece in two ha.



But this is a kick ass helmet. You should be proud.



I'd love to see larger pics of it maybe even some with faux coloring.. just to get the entire impression of a finished product.

Oh yes, I won't lie and say it will be easy. This is for people who are serious about making a really accurate (obviously wearable) replica. Those lines aren't just there so you don't have to dremel them, they're there because I checked, rechecked, and checked again to make sure they're in the right place, and they're symmetrical. I'll post up some colored renders of it, I just wanted to get some pics out in pep designer because it's very neat, simple lines to show where the edges are. Should have some color pics in a minute.

Thanks for taking the time to make it truly accurate.

Helmet is being unfolded as I type, according to Dubean it may take a while due to the detailing in this piece.

Hang tight guys! ^____^

For now I leave you guys with this!

Now that I'm done modeling the helmet, I'll resume work on the rest of the suit.

 

[ironerd]

Awesome. I was hoping you could give us a "hand" lol



Dubean you are the man! I know if anyone can unfold this beautifully it is you!



Shark. This suit is amazing. I assume you are going to scale everything proportionally so that once we establish our own personal scale we can simply use the same across the board.... well with some change here and there.

Shark, I owe you a beer! Awesome work. I seriously can't get over how amazing this all is.



And godspeed to Dubean on his unfolds...I'll buy you a beer too.



...but remember, you two, don't drink and model OR drink and unfold. It's just asking for trouble.



Keep up the awesome work.



^-^Foxy~>

Foxy foxy foxy... tisk tisk



Soliciting alcohol to minors is definitely not legal hahaha





So there were some issues Shark and i had to resolve over some strange anomalies within the model the kept showing up on my screen but not his.. Luckily we got it all figured out and i have started the unfold. This helmet will be positioned within Pepakura Designer/Viewer exactly the same way that Dungbeetles helmet file is, that way you will be able to use the same scaling (granted you've built his helmet before). We just figured this would be easier on everyone for scaling purposes.



so just scale this helmet as you would dung's and you should be fine!

lol.... puns....

Yes sir, this suit is being modeled proportionately, so that when it gets run through pep designer, all the pieces should be the same scale related to each other. Then, since I'm building my own suit, hopefully I can give you guys an idea of what size the pieces should be. I'm 5' 10", the perfect "average height".

Heheh, funny you bring up beer. Reminds me how most people think I'm an old guy for some reason, just turned 18 lol.

Maybe I talk like an old guy...



And yes, please, everyone read Dubeans post above this one. He has made an extra effort to make it easier on ya guys!

 

[ironerd]

Dub. How old are you?



THought forsure all this talent had to be coming from a seasoned aka older dude.

Im 20, but all the talent is coming from sharkboy over there haha. He just graduated high school. Dudes got skillz!







easy there shark, pretty sure 5'9 is the perfect "average" height!!!

 

[ironerd]

What no no 6'1" is the perfect average height lol.

 

[sharkhead7854]

Heheh, I just have patience. ^___^

I wish I was 5' 9", cus I'm gonna keep growing till I'm my dad's height, like 6' 3". Too tall, I thought Puerto Ricans were supposed to be short. lmao



*Yawns and takes break from modeling*

Things left keeping me going:

-Bathroom breaks

-Milk

-Lots of Pink Floyd and System of a Down

*Singing* "All in all you're just a- nother brick in the wall!"

 

[dubean33]

i sure would love to be 6'1 or even 6'3! I would actually have a shot at playing sports in college.. tradsies anyone?

 

[foxymcfox]

You guys are 18 and 20? Don't act like beer is some foreign concept to you at those ages. haha



...But to save my butt legally, let's make it O'Douls.



Seriously though, you guys have talent far beyond your years. (I say that as a very old 23 year old ) I wish I had half the talent of you guys for this kind of stuff, but for me, making things in real life has always been my strong suit. So, I respect anyone who can do this sort of work on a computer.



I'm stockpiling caffeine for when these models start being released. I want to get them done ASAP

[sharkhead7854]

*Gasp* Beer? Underage? I've never even tasted the stuff! *Dripping with sarcasm*

Dubean, I respect your decision but you're totally freakin' missing out. XD
