Batman Helmet Pep

[rsmith]

Hey all,

I'm new to this whole pep stuff, and as such my first attempt at unfolding a Batman Helmet Pep I modeled didn't turn out so well. Would anybody be willing to Unfold this for me? I can let the community have the actual model I was just hoping someone more skilled than I am would be able to look at it.

Here are some images of the pep.

Looks pretty awesome! Keep up the good work. I am sure many people will chime in with advice too!

Thanks IndyFanChuck! Like I said I'm a newbie...but I figured I'd start working on a halloween costume early. I want to create my own batman style suit so I started with the helmet.

I'd love to see this unfolded, however I have no skill at doing so.

Hey all...sorry for not updating you on the status of the project.. I managed to unfold it (not very well) bit will make the file public to everyone if you'd like later on today. Be warned that I modeled the scowl based on my head in Maya so it may not fit everyone but I really wanted try cowl pep as opposed to a latex cowl. I'll upload a link online in a few.

As promised a few hours ago, here is the link to download the Pep. I've tried my best at an unfold but if have a go at it yourself and feel free to make your own helmet.

Finally got this stuff unfolded somewhat efficiently, now it's time to start building my first ever pep.

Nice unfold, I'm planning to make my own bat cowl model, one day........:unsure

If I can give you a suggestion I think it is better if you re-topo the model on the sides, you can make the unfolding easier

any pdf's of this for mac users? :love

 

[rsmith]

Hey Egon, I'll get you some PDF's if you shoot me your e-mail, or does anyone else want them? In the meantime here is my progress.

Never done this before so I'm going to research the whole Resin/Fiberglass process and it's on to step 2.

Let me know what you think guys!

It looks great man. I'd also appreciate a pdf, if you wouldn't mind posting it?

 

[rsmith]

For those mac users (I am too, but thank god for parallels) here are the PDFs. Once again I modeled the cowl/helmet on my own head so who knows how it'll work out for the rest of you, good luck!
