I just got a ROBO 3D R1+ over the weekend and this is one of the first prints I made with it. I think I will need to try different ways of slicing the parts so there isn't so much support printed. Thank you for the great files. This 3d printing stuff is a lot of fun so far.

JA - I used simplify 3D to final print.
On full default medium settings it prints lovely - with supports
Its a paid for program but worth it IMHO
I also printed two as the first one didn't fit lololol.
The first one is done and lacquered , the second one is just about ready to colour top coat
Thanks, I will have to check that out. I just used the software that came with the printer. It seems to work good but I will check out Simplify 3D
Those look amazing. Hope I can get mine to look that good.
Thank you.
Thanks for that.
I just glued the parts with Cyanoacrylate adhesive then poured some fibreglass and resin inside to stiffen.
The outside has a fine scraping of body filler then sand and prime etc etc.
Sounds like a good plan to me. I will most likely be using that method too. Can I also ask what colors you used to paint the helmet?
Thanks again!
I've got the rest of the suit but it's not quite print-ready yet. A couple more weeks and it should be good.
Slow but steady! They are coming along but slowly. It's taking quite a bit of time because I have to separate a lot of parts
