JIN ROH 2015 FUZE PROJECT. Accurate Model from the 1/6 Figure. Modelers WANTED

I can heartily recomend Rhino. Its gui is intuitive and it has a help tab on the left which (when activated) will display the instructions for the tool selected. Most useful.

PM me and I will link you to some educational versions.

Finaly got the transition at the temple right. Can work on the rest of the mask structure now.

Also its put round a balaklava, so its much easier to fit.

Its far from accurate yet though. The Brow/forehead extrusions a far to pronounced compared with the model. And I'm having a hell of a time getting ti to taper off smoothly. I think I may take a break from the mask and do some chest detailing and sort out the knee wings before my head explodes.

Im sure I can do this with my T-splines plugin, I just need to refresh myself with its tools.

Rebuilding the brow and getting into the eye transitions, which is a little tricky when the model head is about an inch tall.

Yesssssssss

This is taking me a hell of a long time to complete.

There are still transitions on the mask im not 100% happy with, and now everytime I change somthing this alters the connections to the ajoining surfaces, so im a little worried about mucking up my work. Im also quite stumped atm at how the (nearly invisible) mask front connects with the gas mask piece. aaaaagh.

And this is before I do all the subtle filleting and champhering of edges and make sure they all line up perfectly (because the slightest % of a mm gap will make holes in the 3d print)

I am also out of milk for my coffee, Time for a stroll in the sun (thank you weather).

 

[jaztermareal]

it looks almost perfect to me!

Looking fantastic so far simonkage! This is one suit of armour I have ALWAYS wanted, and seeing you draw it up like this is amazing.
