1:4 scale Iron Man Mark VI (3D print)

Thought I'd start a thread about a small side project I just started for myself and my buddy who is modeling this. It'll be in my spare time so it wont happen lighting fast but I have a solid start. Ordered the helmet yesterday should be here before the end of the month. We decided to addin all the small details.
My 3D guy is just working on a pose then I can start ordering parts of the rest of the suit.

Oh my!!!

I wish I knew how to make renders as nice-looking as those. What are the source files, may I ask?

Very cool!

Thanks guys, this should be a fun side project.
As for the files no can't really say but I will say it will be the most accurate Mark VI any fan has done to date on any scale.

I cannot wait to see this completed... How are you so ****ing good at this?

Awesome helmet rendering. I assume that the base of the helmet was the CGI movie helmet and the detailed pieces added?

looking good!

Have been wondering what IM to go for. Assuming this will be appearing in the JY, now I know.

Very cool

awesome dude.. consider selling it after the build?

I'm not sure if there will be copies made or not. But I do know I will hopefully be doing the Mark VI as well as the VII fallowing soon after.

And the helmet arrived today. At this scale he print is phenomenal, it is exactly 41.8mm wide so it should be almost the exact size as the Sideshow maquette piece they put out for Iron Man 2.

That looks really great

Can't wait to see this finished

Awesome result! Where did you get it printed and on what machine?

if you sell it please let me know

do i see a ex wife missle there? :P

Thanks Kev.

Shapeways, no idea what machine though. I just know it prints crazy small details.

Why would I.
And yes ex wife cast from a screen used piece.

I love where you're going with this Clinton,
Can't wait to see it on primer as we can't pick up much details in white!

Now now, that's just plain bragging!

The machine that Shapeways uses for that is the Projet 3000 I think the HD version

Here's a close up to show the detail I put a little talc on so they show.
And the pen is there so you can see the scale of this print, it is laying on the helmet although it looks raised.

lol .. amazing to see such tiny details being printed!!!

because i want one ( dont be mad because one transaction didn't go that well, that deal went wrong if you this one it wont )

nlschutd,
This is a show off thread, not an interest thread in any case!

Now, more pics!

i know :P but if nody tells they are interested how can he know :P

anyway, that detail is indeed incredible

Bro, that is some crazy cool detail on that 3D printer. I love the way that helmet looks... I second the notion we need to see it with some primer so the details really pop. Keep up the great work.

Thanks again guys, I'm sure my 3D guy appreciates the great comments.
I'll see if I can get it primed this weekend, and hopefully pics of the rest of the 3D work soon as well.
