[ep82]

it really is an awesome file

Oh right, I haven't really played any of the gears game for a while. but carmine helmet is slightly different when I googled it.





The circle part is towards the front of the helmet in those screen shots but the files is by the ear.

It's also got a little touch of Samurai going on in the back there.

I have some Gow helmets if anyone wants them, there for normal pep so i dunno if Jf has them or if he will be making those too but just to share since some of the links are broken and well some of those helmets are long gone. From top left to bottom right , Locust Horned, Savage Theron Guard, Kantus Hat ( needs unfolding ) , Theron Guard, Theron Sentinel and Queen Myrrah ( needs unfolding ).

I saw xrobots do this.... pretty smart.... I am just not a big fan of doing things twice.... lol

the foam i use allows me to sand down my seams a bit.

Raptor helmet - foam unfold JFcustom.pdo

 

[charlie88]

is that like a predator helmet?? never saw this one before

 

[DarkJester]

chaos space marine raptor helmet, its one of the variations

 

[sterling archer]

You are definitely a machine! Btw, are you by any chance doing the rest of the GoW Carmine armor? Everyday is like Christmas on this tread!

 

[JFcustom]

Well no, it's not planned. But Deunan and Briareos suits are, since 2012. I realy must complete them both before anything else. And then, a HD N7. And then we'll be in summer, probably...

 

[Durkness]

I am going to do that Raptor helmet in the future......... it is going to make a great Guyver Predator base.........

I'm trying to figure out my scaling for this helmet and can't figure out/decide on proper dimensions for it. If you are able to recall, what scaling/height did you use for this?

 

[Durkness]

I redid the file when I built another for a contest winner so I don't have what I used. I usually aim between 165 and 175 on the inside to make sure my head will fit. This is what I do every time I build a helmet.... skip to 3:32 on the video.

 

[DoctorHow]

Wow that video(s) is perfect! Thanks for the help.

 

[itookadooku]

Ive watched it twice, great advice on the video. Thanks

Heres some progress on the GoW helmet, its rough cause I haven't sanded or smoothed out anything yet. My dremel petered out. The "holes" or open parts will get some thinner foam underneath to fill those in, just wanna smooth out the edges first. Taking in some advice in Durkness' video, I tried to allow the edge of the foam to compensate for the "valley/mountain" folds, plus I left some of the foam parts out. Mainly the eye part. I also left off the circle ear pieces because my cuts weren't as round as I would like them, its a WIP. Im still working on finding and creating the right angles, so the angles are off on the face. I didn't mess with the sizing on this fold and other than it being tight going on, it fits well.

Thats awesome but do you have a Engineer suit or helmet?
