Hey Everyone,
I figured I would share a Revan Mask build that I did for a friend going to ComiCon last year. I have since upgraded my 3d printer so I can print full width and so there is less assembly time.
I did the design in Google Sketchup and smoothed out the dome in Blender.
I have a printrbot simple 3d printer which only has a 4"x4"x4" build area so I sliced up the model I made into 12 pieces with a jigsaw slot cut into each for final assembly.
After I assembled all the pieces I used my soldering Iron and extra pla to "weld" it all together and then set about sanding and coating with many coats of filler primer to smooth out the mask.
I gave the mask to my friend unpainted and he finished the rest.
Just thought I would maybe inspire people with smaller printers to be able to make some fun stuff.
I am currently printing a second copy in only 4 pieces now and no jigsaw cuts.
Just thought I would share.
