Re: Iron Man Mark 4/6 from Germany HELMET DONE !!!

It looks awesome davy. It only took 2 weeks too? That's insane! I think I've spent 5 weeks on mine and still have some things to do to it. One small note on yours though is that the left eye looks to be a tiny bit smaller than the right one.
A question too. How did you add the screw head details on the faceplate and the pivot point detail on the jaw?

Hey Chris , i planing all my pices before i start them so it goes faster and i Know then what is to do. I figure out the screws from a alluminium bold and make the holes with a dremel. Yes have seen it today its 0,7 mm different to the other but what is perfect ? I think only 3d print is perfect and im not a friend of it its a nice thing but not more.i love more creativity and hand work.

That looks fantastic, very clean work.

Thanks crank.

I realise that is the best way now to keep focused. I made a big mistake of starting one piece, then starting another and before I knew it I had four or five pieces that were half finished. I've learnt now to focus on one piece at a time.
You're right too. Nothing is perfect. I was just trying to help you get your helmet as close to perfect as possible I've cut the jaw off my helmet twice now to re-position it because I was just not happy with the way it all lined up.
You're so close to the end of the build now, you must be so excited and relieved. What will you do when it is all finished?

Re: Iron Man Mark 4/6 from Germany HELMET DONE !!!

This is looking AMAZING!
Keep up the great work, but one question.
When you were working on the helmet, did you include the eye parts or did you just leave it?

Im having trouble with the helmet's complex parts > <

thanks chris nice that you understand it only with this method you can winning this . I see the pep files not as a pep i see a picture in it and i start it on the same way wehre i go to paint a picture. At this time as you have start i have talk to you and say how to start it on the best easy way when you need help chris ask me i wehre helping you any time !! I think after this build i wehre taken a rope and go to the tree joke hehe. I dondt now it but im planing a bigger project on a iron man suit and it wehre me taken more time as this smal build i use it more for testing how the best ways are for it. I know that this is a fail and winning at the build i have many fails maken but i leraned from it and i wehre this fails not more making at second time, and in real im a guy who have realy no patience for anything.
But my buil is not finished yet and need to make all parts now for the holes on the suit some are done some not but im sure it wehre be looking good.
And i can only say that projectearth7 have make a perfect tutorial for all guys here may he has learned some of me im sure but people must only understanding it and it goes from alone.
by the way before i forgot chris have rechanging the one eye, but its now on molding progress.

This is looking AMAZING!

Mimicry thanks. i have leave the eye parts at the start i make later some eyes for it i have many things leave because you dont need all parts at the pep file. thx
