Re: Ironman mkvi pep helm (aiming 99% movie accuracy) - FACEPLATE HINGE INSTALLED!!!

SORRY EVERYONE FOR THE LATE ANSWER... BUT FINALLY HERE'S MY REPLY...


Any idea when you will be doing another run of these?

As soon as I finished the new mould I will offer a new run...:thumbsup


I'm planning to build (again) the mark 6 helmet. . and i hope it will be just like this ><

:):thumbsup


same here this is my inspiration build. true Filipino workmanship..

Thanks man... good luck with your build... cheers!


Not a single bump, or scratch, or any imperfection
You're using a 3d printer, aren't you
I know you are
lol. This is proboably the most movie accurate helmet on the RPF
Serious worksmanship
What is your job? You should be working for a studio

P.S. How do you guys go about painting?
Matt? Glossy finish?
Or Matt and Lacquer?

Thanks man... it's all labor of love, sweat and blood...:D... I haven't tried painting it yet.. :confused


Your helmet is clearly a jaw-dropping work! So much attention to the details, it's really impressive!

Thanks for the sharing and the inspiration!

If you do a hinges and motorization pack only in the JY, keep me informed! I'm really interested to motorize mine the same way you did!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks man...:):thumbsup


That thing looks absolutely amazing!! Good job

Thanks...:):thumbsup


have noticed and it is amazing that you are one of the few people to also notice this! I love when the little details are pointed out, it is all in the fine points that make a great piece. You should think about making a copy of this and adding battle damage!
:love

Thanks man... already made a few copies but haven't reach the painting stage yet...


:coolGreat Job Helmet look awsome:)

Thanks...


Aweeeeeeesome Work!

This one is pinned to the top most inspiring Builds!

Thanks for sharing mate.

Thanks mate...:):thumbsup


Amazing work...well done.I know people have asked already but i`m going to try anyway and ask about the hinge set up and as to wether you could post some pics of them.........pleeeaaaase :)

Thanks...


****** that is just sexy in all the right ways!! Amazing job dude can't wait till this is finished!

Thanks man... neither can I...:):thumbsup


since when is g.o.d.d.a.m a swear word? go home rpf you are drunk!!

:confused


are the resin and body filler really necessary or could you just use paper mache

For what finish I want to achieve... the answer is YES... for the paper mache, please feel free to do so...


I challenge you to show me a Paper Mache build that comes out as smooth or defined as a properly resined and filled one...

...So in short, yes.

Actaully, I have seen some paper mache figurines that was amazing well made and smooth...:):thumbsup


Darn good eye on that lower lip! This build is looking really great! Gives me hope. I'm just starting my project. One more page of the helmet to cut out then its build time!
Keep up the awesome work and thanks a lot for the all the pix, very helpful. Press on!
-Mitch

Thanks Mitch... glad I can help... :):thumbsup


well its possible to make an extremely hard smooth papermache for molding just need toilet paper put through a blender and then use 1 part woodglue one part water and you'll get a rock solid finish that smooths extremely well and cn be applied like a paste

:):thumbsup

Re: Ironman mkvi pep helm (aiming 99% movie accuracy) - FACEPLATE HINGE INSTALLED!!!

Sweet baby *****! I've been lurking on here for a good while but this thread has forced me to come out of the shadows. That's a great looking helmet. Any chance that purchasing an Iron Man 2 War Machine or even Iron Patriot helmet with your hinges would be possible in the future? *drools*
 
Re: Ironman mkvi pep helm (aiming 99% movie accuracy)

then we found a new method/technique to speed things up... and for this build, it only took me 2 days to put together the pep card...
hmmmmm...
good luck!

Is there any way to make you share this method ? :)

Your helmet makes me feel like crying because i know i cant be that good :(

I'm blown away at your attention to detail on this. I've just picked up one of Masked Riders IM helmets and I fear yours is even more accurate than his! Totally interested in buying one from you, PM me with pricing and options please and once again, outstanding work

I must say, when it comes to Iron Man, this is my inspiration to finish my helmet. I even catch myself using this as reference pictures instead of actual screens of the helmet quite often. I appreciate the hard work and the documentation ;) You are definitely an inspiration!

It seems like lots of the pictures in the beginning stages aren't working. I would love to see them, since your build is looking awesome!
