Dubean33 over on the 405th modified Sharkheads new helmet to make it much more accurate and even included a pepakura hinge to allow for the separate back piece to slide inside the helmet! (theoretically)
I think this is the most accurate pepakura helmet to date!
The thread is here
and the direct file link is here
I would be super grateful if someone could convert the pdo to a pdf file on 8.5x11 pages. I'm a mac user and cant download the Pep software!
Anyone?
Doing it for you now. Expect a PM. Gimme a few minutes.
This helmet is awesome. I might have to make this one as well. I want one to wear and one for display only.
i made a pdf of it. emailed it to you. check it out and if it looks good, post it up here. i dont know how to do the rapidshare thing.Omg are you serious? Every time I start to finish an ironman helmet pep, another better one comes out. lmao, this is crazy.Thanks for sharing.
dubean33 said:I hate to do this to you again, but version 2.1 will be unfolded in the next few hours. It does not include the hinge as some flaws in the design were made known me. Also that the hinge is rather big. Quartermain3000 has come up with a fairly simple way to scratch build a hinge that will not add any thickness. I think this is a better idea than having a pepped hinge. If you guys want to build v2.0 go for it, i think it would be fairly easy to not include the hinge if you so choose. Lastly, some vertices in the eye piece and jaw line were cleaned up for v2.1 and should help alleviate some stress in the pepping stage for you all
wish someone would make a suitcase version. I cant even find decent pics of the helmet. I think theres extra vents and stuff. I like how he incorporated the panel lines into his pep model. Yay Symmetry!

]I wonder if I should carve the seams in the faceplate. In some shots the seams arent there. hmm. I donno. I guess personal preference but Im so indecisive!!he talked about it in the thread on the 405th. the extras that the mkV has can be added when your sanding the bondo. most likely how im gonna do it. i think he's making more accurate war machine too.
