3D Printed Life Sized Thanos Head

I bring you yet another project I'm currently working on, a life sized Thanos head! I found a great 3D model of Thanos's head and thought it would be fun to try and make a full sized print of it to go along with the Infinity Gauntlet I'm wrapping up. I had to slice this thing into a lot of pieces because of how big it was, and because I don't have any 3D printers with a print bed larger than 8.9 x 5.9 x 5.7 inches ... But I've finally finished printing and assembling everything tonight and wanted to share my progress with everyone here!







Now I have a lot of filling and sanding ahead of me! As you can tell there was some warping on the larger parts because of being printed in ABS, but I wanted to do everything in ABS because I could fuse all the parts together by using an acetone/ABS slurry mix. After I finish patching and sanding everything down I'll post some update photos for anyone that's interested!

Cool, that's gonna be a sweet bust. Can't wait to see the end game. Sub'd...

UPDATE:

Bet you thought this project would never see the light of day... yeah me either Alas, PROGRESS!



More to come! I've decided to incorporate this Thanos head into a cosplay I'm working on, so progress will be more regular now!

Acteone slurry wash and first coat of primer, time to sand/prime/repeat

That's really cool! I'm just getting into 3D printing myself. What software did you use to cut up the model?

I use NetFabb, you can use a lot of programs though. I think Windows 10 even has a 3D program stock that does it now.
