Dr. Doom Pep, WIP

[Lando]

Im starting a Dr. Doom with Dung0beetle's pep file, I was able to unfold it, got it printed and will start assembly sometime today, hopefully it will turn out good, my last project was going good until I figured out it was too big, I will finish that one another time, my main concern is that I wanna finish Dr. Doom in time for Halloween. so wish me luck and hopefully I resized it correctly.:unsure
Thank you Dung0beetle fo your hard work on the pep file. :cheers

This is the goal.

I'm using Dung0beetle's Pep file. I had to unfold it.

Day one
after resizing the Pep file I got it printed and started cutting and pasting.

Day 2
I'm on hold, I ran out of glue sticks

Day 3
Still on hold

Day 4
Finally got back to working on Doom, I had to cut the back of the head because the mask is fitted to my face, there is no room in the back to be able to put the mask on, also my head is a little widwer than the mask had to cut down the middle of the top of the head and added more cardstock, it fits good now, next is resin time.

The fitment is perfect

So this is where I am at now, Lost count of days, I was finally able to get some resin, after the resing portion I primered the mask, as you can see theres still alot of work to smooth out the surfaces, so its bondo and sanding time.

New updated pictures as you can see I still need more sanding to do.

Good luck. I thought about doing this but I wanted the 1980's Doom voice to go with it, could not figure it out and gave up lol.

I think this is going to be a fun build once I get it rolling

i think this pep will be a hard one as there aren't really any large exaggerated features, might need some structure on the inners to keep a hold of the shape, i feel a little of the shape is lost in pepakura models due to the nature of bendable card.

look forward to seeing a photo update soon :cheers

i'm going to start another build in the next few days, if i can make a simple 3D model of it.

 

[Lando]

Its actually very strong because of all the different angles, of course I will have to do some bonding to get it right, I think this will be a good piece for me to work on.

New update.

 

[Cal]

That masking tape will show threw, you might want to take that off before you resin it.

Good luck. I thought about doing this but I wanted the 1980's Doom voice to go with it, could not figure it out and gave up lol.

Most of the tape will come off, also I will be adding Doom's voice, I dowloaded some voice clips. now I have to figure out what to use as a player

So I went out and finally found some resin to use, ive been looking for this stuff for about a week now, i bought it brought it back home and I was about to resin my mask and then i find out the resin is already hardened and check out the date on the bottom of the can and it has been expired since 2009, I was so frekin mad, now I gotta wait another day to get my stuff exchenged. :angry
