This is spectacular. I'm looking for some Mk 1 WM files to experiment with 3D printing. Been doing it Pepakura but it'd be fun to try something sturdier.

Quick update. I resized the original files several times. It's been a pain in the posterior but here's what I've got.

So here's my progress after resizing the helmet a million times. It's pretty big. I'm having a hard time deciding how big to make it without knowing the padding etc, inside. Going with 125% for now and fingers crossed.

Registration problem resolved. It's super confusing but inverting the registration in Cameo and turning on more lights in the room got 80% recognition. Enough to work with. The helmet was too small after assembly so....scale and reprint, recut and rebuild. Good times!

Issue number 1. I'm using a Cameo 3 to cut out the pep files. It won't recognize my registration marks, which I guess is fine. So I load it without registration marks and the cuts are spot on at the top but toward the bottom they are about a mm high and to the left. Thoughts? I thought it was...

I am also super interested in how to start unfolding 3D objects.

I am starting a War Machine build based on IM2. At the moment I'm assembling Pep files and Foam mock ups to determine which will provide the best detail/difficulty ratio. Some features I want to include are: Motorized Faceplate with LED visor Mounted shoulder cannon with motorized spin...

Are these still for sale anywhere? Also how much are they going for? Thanks.

Thanks. It took a ton of time and worth every minute.

This is the final product.

More recent pic. I'm working on the aging on the jacket. Any advice for getting deep set stains? I'm using a combination of tea aging and acrylic paints.

So this is my first serious cosplay. I feel like it's coming along pretty nice. Waiting for the jackets to arrive which were EXTREMELY hard to find. Here's a few pics of what I've got so far. Not bad for a first try. :)

Assembling costumes for the first time. I get most of my advice from here so might as well register. Sup?
