How about BIG BAD BEETLEBORGS helmets?

Hello guys) yesterday i find old TV-show on VHS at home, "BIG BAD BEETLEBORGS". remember time, when i was a child. search on therpf show me only 1 url:
http://www.therpf.com/f24/big-bad-b...-anyone-110848/?highlight=BIG+BAD+BEETLEBORGS

did any one have a model, or real tutorial of making helmet?

 

I have been watching episodes on Netflix that has brought back so many childhood memories! I was surprised that there isn't a whole lot of Beetleborg love here

 

memories)))
So what about helmet? everyone have power rangers helmets, but no one have Borgs. epic WHY?))))

 

Other than the pictures in the other thread, I've never seen anything. Beetle Borgs and Power Rangers were my childhood, so it would be amazing to see something come to life!

 

i try to find a game, but cant. maybe some one make 3d model. we need to search.

 

http://www.cosplayhouse.com/search.php?mode=search&page=1 a little expensive to buy but the detail looks good enough to use as reference

 

hmmm.... i am not shure, they are realy exist... no real photos, all pictures - movie stuff. but, thanx)

 

I might have some reference on these as I worked on the show. Which helmet are you trying to make?

 

I am not triying yet, but if i find a model, will make main of them: blue, green and red. there was a BEETLEBORGS METALLIC also, but i dont realy like their helmets.

 

I have to scan them in, but looks like some great reference on the helmets. I'll try to get to it soon.

 

Its great to hear it.))) if it not so hard for you - i I will be grateful.
Thnx.:thumbsup

 

i'd love to see some Beetleborgs on the forums, I want to build an entire suit!

 

Whole suit? for now its too much for me - i have - "Iron man suit, predator bike, and many helmets" Projects. so, i want just helmets. Lets try together, if Wondersquid will give us some info, or we will find models.
What Borg suit do you want?

 

I'd probably go with the green since he's slightly taller(not that it makes much difference since we can rescale as needed) but I've always been partial to that suit and helmet

 

Lets see, what we can do. maybe some one else want to build it. more people - more fun))))

 

Good news!....3d models of Blue and SHADOWBORG!:

http://wewvic.deviantart.com/

Wewvic's also has some great Power Megazords models that could become full suits.

- (except for parts of his/her really early Dragonzord. That, or I just sucked at hot gluing cardboard. Look like a giant robot chicken when I finally accepted I didnt know what I was doing 1/2 through. Head came out pretty good )

 

Holy moly poly.... YOU ARE GENIUS! how i didnt see it?! amazing news!!! :thumbsup
In the meadle of next week i will start to make Blue Helmet. i downloaded models and think, that its almost perfect))) almost that, what i search. if someone want to build it too, i think we need to build main structure, and then make our own mini details. for details we can see pictures and oroginal movie video.

 

Well I would love to take credit but wewvic on devianart is the one who made the models (though it did force me to learn how to disessamble models for pepakura finally. I did that much of the dragonzord building right. Still have the head n chest piece lying around for almost 2 years )

Basically drop wewvic a line. He/she made them free to the public for Mikumiku dance fanvids, so wewvic might get a kick out of them becoming physically real.

Frankly if I get the time I would love to do a Power Rangers/Beetleborg sketch. Crap, Shadowborg was used as a Power Ranger villian "Venjix" in "Forever Red", the 10th anniversary episode where 10 red rangers duke it out with the "Machine Empire", the minions being reused Astralborg suits (with one being the body of either Fireborg or Lightningborg, with the body being the other )

Not only you could have 2 "Shadowborgs" fighting rangers and borgs, a later villian in Power Rangers RPM was also called Venjix (but was a virus like Skynet) You could have the rangers & borgs vs. Venjixes in a 2 vs. 3 fight

 

Ok, here is the helmet stuff I found, it's years old and taken before digital cameras, so please forgive the blurry pics. Enjoy.

Its very helpfull, thanx. pictures is awesome))) i google it, but there in not so much good quolity in the most of pictures.
I will start making blue helmet this week. updates will posted here.

 

Ok, guys, i start it. Just helmet, now whole suit. Step 1. Paper model. (done). I see no reason show it now, its just a paper base head.


Step 2. Resin and fiberglass.
Step 3. putty (filler).

update (step 2) next week.

 

The nostalgia and satisfaction from those pics is amazing, thank you so much for sharing!

 

You're very welcome! I'll upload the rest when I can.

 

More pictures? awesome! thank you for this. :thumbsup

 

Well yes, I have pics of the rest of the suits, I just posted the helmets so far. Much more goodies to come.

 

Hi guys. there is no photos yet, but i started to make a helmet, as i promise. i had some photos, but all they are here

so, i have only this for now

to be continued...

 

Looking sweet. Which leads to the inevitable question: When are the unfolded files released? DUN DUN DUNNNN!!!

But seriously, take whatever time you need. Hobbys a hobby, and properly unfolded files are better than rushed ones anyway.

Now we just need files of red & green....

 

unfolld only head.

Guys... i start this thread, but i really have now time for now. first of all because of this - http://predatorium.com/threads/predator-moto-bike-project-pmbp-updated-may-29-hot-update.20617/
this project took all my time. when its be more free time - i restart making borgs helmets. if someone work on it now - post pictures here.
Cheers)

 

I loved this show and the creepy as hell ronald mcdonald genie!

 

Finally got the rest sorted out. This is all I have, so any missing pieces, sorry I guess I lost those pictures. Enjoy and I hope this inspires some people to build.

If this doesn't help you all, I don't know what will.

 

Vey neat to see! Thanks for sharing!

 

+1 Thanx for sharing. i will finished my predator project and will back to borgs)))

 

These would be really easy to print out on a 3D printer

 

ive always had mad respect for the propmakers that have built beetleborgs/kamenrider/powerrangers. top quality costumes and the attention to detail! its almost upsetting everything can just be 3D printed nowadays. this is the kind of stuff i want to do with my life.

 

Thanks a million! This has been a dream project for me since I was young. Always wanted to be a Beetleborg and now I may be able to!
