Re: Neuer22 -3D- Iron Man 3 - Mark 42 / XLII - DONE!!!
It was a long time this thread was quiet
In the meantime I changed my user name here from Neuer22 to blickfangQ2
So don't be confused, it's me
So now to the reply's:
I can imagine that
Yes and no. I hope I can lower the poly count even more for foam
Thanks it took me almost a year to finish this
Printing already started exclusively by Biggeek1972
MOD EDIT: Please do not post Junkyard links, thanks.
If you have any further questions feel free to ask
Seb

Re: Neuer22 -3D- Iron Man 3 - Mark 42 / XLII - DONE!!!
Wait what software did you use to make, and are you using the same software to unwrap it? If you need any more background buildings modeled give me a shout, as that is what I specialize in, though with you're talent It probably won't be an issue

I think I'm fine thanks I use Cinema 4D for modeling. Will unwrap it with pepakura since that is what everyone is used to
But like I said, this won't happen until my teamup with Curtis is over on that one

Fair enough, we will be desperately waiting for you're pep files then!
Did you not just read the last post? He is waiting for his team up with Curtis to be over, so we all just have to be patient.

Hey hey guys relax. There is no ETA . That's the reason I posted the interest thread so you can lean back and relax updates of the printing progress until the waiting is over. That way you have your progress bar

oh, lol, I have to open my eyes a bit more, I scanned right past it.

Re: Neuer22 -3D- Iron Man 3 - Mark 42 / XLII - DONE!!!
lol I do that sometimes too.
blickfang I was curious how did you go about modeling this? did you use either prebuilt or built person and then use the proportions of that to model it to the shape or are you going off of pure refrence?
also, trying to get opinions on this:
what kind of paper should be used for these(the pep paper files). I think i read on another post that it should be a3 paper. not sure if that works but what would be best size/thickness? also what would be best to adhere the pieces, hotglue possibly? i think it would be the best but im not sure because on the first helmet i did as a test i used normal printer paper and it turned out a little too small and i used rubber cement to put it together which was kind of ok(it held together)

Re: Neuer22 -3D- Iron Man 3 - Mark 42 / XLII - DONE!!!
Blickfang would probably use the normal, pure reference, and it would probably be proportionate due to the fact that it was modeled after a real person.
And yes, I would definitely use hot glue, as everyone does(or at least I think). For the paper, I use 110 Ib card stock, to put that in proportion to the regular printer paper, it is usually around 27 Ib, the higher the number, the stiffer the paper. The paper is more expensive, but totally worth you're time, as regular paper wouldn't be able to hold the form during the fiberglass resining stage.

well I wont be near fireglass or resin for a while ($$$) So I should just use the normal 8 1/2 *11 printer paper size just a heavier stock?cause when i had looked the a3 paper is larger than a4(which is printer size)

Seb used the reference images/design art I gave him to model from.
It was from scratch same as all his 3D models.
The team up as you call it isn't just on this project.
But I think he will release some low poly version once I get the suit all molded and cast.

Sorry I didn't know I can't post JY links here so just search for Biggeek1972 and look at his recent threads
I can't answer questions to paper size or thickness... I just built one paper model once using cardboard but it didn't turn out very well.
+ I don't think A3 makes sense cause no one has A3 printers at home.
Like Curtis already pointed out, I build this entirely from scratch as you can see in this thread. The proportions are not scaled to a human but to the references I had

Re: Neuer22 -3D- Iron Man 3 - Mark 42 / XLII - DONE!!!
cant wait till we get it. out of the 5 or so mark 42's ive seen this is by far the best. If I had the time I would work on my own suit but since im in school and Im already modeling at least 40 hours a week just for assignments I wont have the time to get it anywhere near done. though i am going to have to find some time later on because I want to make all 42 suits myself and so far no one wants to do half the other suits that I know of after quickly searching the forums
also to blickfandQ2 It would be awesome to see your poly flow on the suit. could you possibly pm me a few shots of the wire frame?

I second that! You guys do AWESOME work. Ive always made these from scratch till I discovered pepakura.

Would you be willing to sell the 3D files however?
Sorry, that's a clear no :/
But I'm releasing the Pep files for free! Stay tuned
