To be fair...
most of the people who release files freely to the public have some other prop building on the side to line their own pockets.
I know now for a fact ghost believes in open sharing, especially throughout this community. Hell, half the time his printers are tied up printing things for other people as a favor. I wouldn't expect you to know that...but you could have taken a slightly less condescending stance in your reply. We all know you are a respected prop builder here, and we appreciate your contributions, but understand that not everyone feels the same way that you do, and that's ok! That's the beauty of this community!
You're doing great work ghost, and you've more than put in your dues. High five!
I am aware of who made the Ultron model. You have not released the 3d print model, as far as I'm aware.
The MK V model that I had commissioned is not being shared. This goes along with the wished of the guy who modeled it, skylu3design. So, no, I haven't and am not sharing it.
I'm not really sure what the basis of you're complaint is. You seem to speak as though I'm not sharing it. Yet, clearly in my first post I stated that it will be freely shared for pep, and that I would send the 3d print version to RPF members through PM. So, what exactly is your complaint?
And frankly speaking, I find it a little shameful for you to say that people should all just hand out there models. Try making that argument elsewhere and see where it gets you.
I have absolutely no shame in supporting open source and I love seeing people inside and out of the costuming world sharing their stuff. I will continue to urge skilled modelers such as yourself to make their stuff available to the public, because it benefits the wider costuming community when you do so. It's not really a complaint, it's more of a "here we go again". How about this - can you tell me why you don't want to make the printable model you're making publicly available? What, exactly, is the benefit of making the pep file available (which itself can very easily be used for 3D printing) and only making the other files a "closed release"? What is the goal you are hoping to accomplish with that release method?
It totally does. Good luck on the rest of the build, I'm sure this will be fantastic. I didn't mean to suggest I thought otherwise.
Very nice job bro. !!!, if u need something let me know.
I know why the difference between the design in the movie Iron Man 2, the Mark 5 which all saw, and the design created in Iron man 3 by Legacy ; the reason is this, the creator of the concept of the suit Mark 5 was made by designer Philippe Gaulier, and digital part where the suit (race Monaco) was used was entrusted to another design firm called Double Negative, they made the cgi model; apparently had a difference with the people of Legacy effects by copyright and Legacy relegate design Mark 4, 6 and War Machine Mark 1 to designer Ian Joyner, who also performed a design of the Mark 5 for Iron Man 3 that's the truth of why don't use the original Iron Man 2 cgi in Iron man 3, simple conclusion in "The Art of Iron Man 2" book design shown the original (Philippe Gaulier design), then Legacy had, to make another model similar, whether the model we saw later, that appeared in the CCI, and then in the movie Iron Man 3, is not in the book, Summary, the difference between the designs was clearly copyright.-

Just had to weigh in here…
If there is anyone willing to share, may it be resources or mental support… it's Ghostminion! Seriously helped me out countless times and I'm always glad when I can return the favor. And his reason to share the final model the way he does is pretty cool! Everyone of us knows the typical noob who just joins theRPF to ask "files plz" inside the thread without even reading anything, just looking at the pictures. By actually having them READ the first post and making sure they know how to navigate through the system and write a Personal Message you make sure that the person at least knows the basics. And just MAYBE they return to post about something they made and by that contribute to the Forum. It's a big maybe but at least there's a chance. Personal Contact, even in just a PM is more "intimate" than just clicking a download link and therefore adds a certain commitment (I'm not quite sure if that is the right word I'm looking for. In german I would say "Verbindlichkeit") to the whole exchange.
Anyways, back to the topic! @GhostMinion: Try to get rid of those triangles. Use squares in the mesh. That way you get rid of that pinching in the smoothed model. In Blender go into edit mode, select all faces and open the mesh menu: Mesh>Faces>tris to quads. It makes all the difference. Working on the topology manually is easier that way too.
