3d Printing a Robocop Suit

[rralstin]

the whole suit is supposedly to scale for a person 6'0". based on the forearm wrist and glove wrist I would say its around the right size. The bulkier and more intimidating this suit looks the better. I suppose the real test will come when I make the Chest/legs

Planning to make some sort of Padded undersuit complete with cooling fans and flexible pipes to keep me cool. Months down the road but I have some ideas. I have loads of spare computer fans, big and small. Just have to come up with a system that will work.

oh boy, I have a left forearm/elbow assembly

Nice! 5% done. 95% to go...

Your Auto-9 is so nice. Have you test fit anything at all or is it just for static display?

it is an airsoft beretta M93r with 3d printed parts attached. It will fire I just havent fired it yet. I need some green gas

Awesome! That's cool that it will fire, I'd love to see a video of it in action! Any airsoft weapon is a no go for me, hence why I bought a toy version and made my own.

Officially subscribed by the way!

Yeah, it sucks. No airsoft for me in Australia either. I'll be 3d printing the whole gun

Nice progress man. I'm also doing the Robocop build. I have now almost 1 leg ready. From boot to thigh. I will start a thread with my build and pictures with my progress. Maybe we can help each other, because this build has some major challenges. Happy building!:thumbsup

 

[rralstin]

I saw the leg, looks amazing, cant wait to print mine, how many pieces did you cut it into? I am trying to print all the smaller less difficult parts now and then work up to the big stuff. silver filament :thumbsup

left bicep is on the printer

 

[bitbull]

Thanks man! You arm looks great too. And man, I love the auto 9.

The build volume of my printer is fairly large. 210x250x200 mm. The upper leg was divided into 5 parts. The lower leg was 3 parts. Not counting the piston.

 

[joberg]

Yep, fairly large for sure, no wonder you have a small amount of parts for the legs:eek

 

[rralstin]

Yes my print area is 220x220x240 it's not bad

View attachment 707714My Auto-Nine... :cool

Looks nice...but you must cut it a little bit on the front and add a grain.

 

[joberg]

Lookin' good!!

Not germane to the costume as a whole, but if you're having trouble getting green gas, a propane adaptor might be a good investment; they cost maybe $15 at any airsoft store. Combine that with $3 Coleman propane cans and a 5oz bottle of silicone oil and you're good to go.

 

[rralstin]

right upper shoulder almost there!

 

[rralstin]

Chest is under way. Both arms done minus the fingers. I have the lower left and right part of chest done, I will post pics once it is all done

 

[pchrisbosh1]

Looking good so far sir!

 

[rralstin]

added front site and chopped auto nine down a bit on front.
